Preference in glass?

Aug 27, 2004 13 Replies

Having heard good things about just about anything from The Blender's Malt Glass from Glencairn, The Perfect Whisky Glass from Andrews Parke and Riedels Single Malt Whisky Glass, I was wondering what you fine people was enjoying your water of life from...

The blender's malt glass at home and my Dalvey pocket cup in the field.

I was up Carn an t-Sagart and I had a mouthful of LotI out of Highland Spring plastic bottle. No expense spared eh?

I'm perfectly happy with a small brandy snifter. And something peaty to put in it, of course.

I happen to prefer the Riedel *cognac* glass, which I feel is better for nosing than their whisky glass.

I tend to use the Glencairn glass for my everyday enjoyment of whisky - but I've got som Spiegelau Spirit glasses for special ocations.

Hi All

I prefer the The Blender's Malt Glass. I find it's shape perfect for nosing and it's very solid as well and don't break when I clean them

... and where do you find them? Googling turns up few places. mostly in Europe, that carry these items.

No cheap but great glasses. This is a US company, btw, in California, as I recall.

Side note will be, that I personally prefer the Glencairn

Yep - The same...

Maybe a bit to fast there :) There will be the Glencairn name in small on the underside of the glass if it's the same - but they sure look the same...
