Glencairn Whisky Glass

Until the creation of the Glencairn Whisky Glass there had never been a single definitive glass that the whisky world could call its own.

Brandy, champagne, wine and beer all have their own distinct glasses.  Yet whisky, the world’s most complex spirit, was served in whatever glass was handy.  

The glass design was perfected with the aid of master blenders from five of the largest whisky companies in Scotland.

It’s size and shape accommodates a 35ml pour whilst allowing for the addition of water; keeping an optimum amount of liquid in contact with air to allow the aromas to develop.

The tapering mouth allowed for an ease of drinking whilst capturing the all-important aromas.

The wide crystal bowl enhances the appreciation of the whisky’s colour and the solid base is designed to be easily cradled in the hand. It is also robust enough for the discerning whisky drinker.

This is now the preferred tasting glass for whisky connoisseurs the world over.
