The Glencairn Crystal Whiskey Glass is the perfect choice for those who want to focus on the aroma of their whiskey. The wide bowl and narrow rim concentrate the aromas, making it easier to pick out individual scents. And since it's made from lead-free crystal, you can enjoy your whiskey without worrying about any harmful chemicals.
Plus, it's dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup. Overall, a great choice for those who want to enjoy the full flavor of their whiskey without sacrificing quality or safety.Â
If you're looking for a high-quality whiskey glass that can also be used as a cocktail or juice glass, the Norlan Whisky Glass is a perfect choice. It has all the features of a traditional whisky glass (a narrow rim to focus aromas and hand-blown glass) but with added benefits like its double-walled design and its ability to be used as a cocktail glass.
The double-walled design not only keeps your drink warmer than other glasses but also adds an extra layer of protection from breakage: If it does get knocked off your table when you're having one too many drinks, you'll still have a perfectly good glass left. The only downside we found with the Norlan Whisky Glass is that it's not dishwasher safe, which may be an issue for some.Â
For those who prefer their drinks on the rocks and want to avoid over-pouring, Riedel's double old-fashioned glass has a 2-ounce pour line. Unlike the Norlan whisky glass, it can be put in the dishwasher and is also shatterproof.
