Review on Glencairn Whiskey Glass by Stolzle by Colleen Bolden

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fine glasses for whiskey enjoyment

Do they emphasize the taste of your favorite drink, in my case single malt Scotch whisky? no You will absolutely increase your ability to enjoy good whiskey by 100%. The glass is designed to help you discern the characteristics of what makes whiskey great. You pour alcohol to about the point where the bell curves. It is the perfect portion to sniff and taste. The curvature of the glass traps odors in the glass. Proper sniffing will help you get the full spectrum of flavors. Don't be afraid to stick your nose right there. This is your glass! Go there and smell the whisky! Look at that! Pay attention to the color and consistency of the liquid. When you're ready to taste, swirl it around a little so the oxygen (and maybe a drop or two of water you added) really opens up and you're fully aware of what your whiskey has to offer, both robust and elegant. You look great. They feel great. I couldn't be happier. I get two more!
