Enhance your enjoyment of single malt whisky.
I love single malt whisky & US bourbon. I was somewhat skeptical that this glass would greatly improve my enjoyment but I'm now a believer! The glass truly does allow you to pick out the subtle nuances more precisely. If you're spending $50 and more on single malt scotch, why would you want to miss out on the nuances of each?The design of this glass is based on the traditional "nosing" glass used by master whisky blenders. The pinched waist holds the aroma and the tapering neck directs the bouquet up to your nose. The smaller opening keeps the air in the room from confusing your senses so you get a more precise "nose". A traditional nosing glass has no cuts in the glass or other decoration because it would distort the color of the whisky.The Glencairn glass was originally designed for pub/bar use so it is a sturdy little glass. The bottom is heavy so it's not easily tipped over and is easily grasped. It feels good in the hand. The only glass that would...

Good quality, nice heft
A nice glass to enjoy your whiskey of choice. It looks nice on your bar and the set is perfect for enjoying something nice w/ friends.They have a good heft and even with my friend's rough use no problems. Not fragile, but not idiot-proof either. Haven't broken one yet. The shape really does seem to help focus aroma. Found these after another Canadian whisky set w/ a large maple leaf on the bottom (chose not to get those because of the leaf).After about 2-3 months use, i am seeing the bottom lettering be a little less distinct. Looks etched and the outside edge is the bottom contact of the glass - so i expect they will eventually wear smooth. No biggie but be aware.Nice glasses - definitely recommend the set.

Nice glasses, poor packaging
"Stolzle Glencairn Whiskey Glass Boxed" would imply that the items would come in a box. I ordered 3 glasses, one came in a box and the other two were wrapped in bubble wrap. Now I have to figure out how to wrap these as presents and provide the recipients with the product description so they know what the glass is and why it is special enough to be given as a gift. The glasses seem nice enough and I am sure the design is appropriate for whiskey, I just wish they had come packaged better.
