Keep this in mind when you buy antiques, or opt for new glassware with a retro design. While antique and vintage glassware is a beautiful addition to a home bar, many older pieces were made with lead oxide (this added a reflective sheen to the exterior of the glasses). Each glass comes in an elegant burgundy and silver box, making it a go-to gift. This design, a result of nine years of tastings and studies, also points out any potential flaws within the liquid. This opening is designed to amplify the aromas and flavor characters of the spirit, like the delicate flavors of Japanese whisky, while avoiding the nose-numbing, overpowering ethanol scent. The glass holds 4 ounces and is wider than the traditional tasting glass. The heavier weight of the glass-similar to what you’d get from antique crystal-is also a nice touch. Many of the world’s top tasting competitions use this Neat Glass option as their standard tasting glass, and with good reason: Each glass is thoughtfully mouth-blown from lead-free crystal. Goodfellow recommends adding a bit of room temperature water to the Glencairn glass to help open up the spirit.

The shape is meant to enhance the aromas of fine whisk(e)y, and I find it does that job well.” Kristen Voisey, the owner of Cocktail Emporium and the brand’s glassware designer, agrees: “This is the standard tasting glass used at most distilleries. “You can see the spirits well-the glass tapers towards the top to concentrate the smell when you nose it, and the stem removes any unintentional heat to the spirit.”

“The ideal glass, so I've been told by many whisk(e)y distillers, for tasting is a stemmed glass that has a wider base than the nose, like ISO or Cordial glass,” explains Goodfellow. Each 6-ounce glass is designed to show off the color and the aroma of the spirit. These Glencairn glasses are beloved by whiskey drinkers as they concentrate the aromas-something a rocks glass does not.
