  • My sweetie bought me 4 Glencairn glasses for Christmas. They are excellent. They not only have a great shape for capturing flavor, but they seem well made. The other day I tipped a glass over on a hard wood surface. It not only survived intact, but it still held more than half of my dram. I wouldn't try that again, but it was nice.

  • @sevenwarlox Glad youare enjoying your Glencairn glasses, they are a great way to get the full whisky experience.

  • I'm a bourbon drinker who always enjoyed my whiskey with a touch of water, one ice cube in a highball glass. I got some Glencairn glasses recently and was very surprised at how much better I could smell the whiskey with the new glasses, aromas I'd found before were amplified, and new aromas came forward. A great addition to your whiskey education if you do not yet have them.

  • @unclebud99 Absolutely great and they seem, to us at least, to work better with bourbon for some reason...perhaps more volatiles in bourbon. The glasses are excellent however. The Davidson clan, who came up with the idea and manufacture them hit a home run. I believe they just sold their 7 millionth glass. Thanks for your comment....appreciated.

  • you have an awesome voice man

  • @chrissept21 We just saw your post and will pass it on to Charlie....who is always practicing and perfecting his mellow tones.
