Each design showcases both spirits and cocktails, and can hold up in a high-energy bar environment-it’s common to spot these glasses on bar tops across the country. For Voisey, Riedel’s 9-ounce heavy-base tumblers are particularly “great for drinking Old Fashioneds or classic whiskey cocktails on the rocks.”įor this drink-specific collection, Georg Riedel tapped a range of bartenders and industry experts to create these glasses.

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.

“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. “A Glencairn glass really lets you fully appreciate the notes you get on the nose and the layering of the flavors.” "I'm quite stuck on the traditional Glencairn glass,” describes Nicole Ross, the head bartender of New York City's The Chester.
