I live between two worlds when it comes to spirits glasses. The appropriate choice to best highlight and what feels good in my hand at the end of a long day/meal. Tulip shaped stems are the most flattering, they are not the most enjoyable to drink out of. Glencairn glasses are lovely, but I hate seeing fingerprints on glass. Cut crystal rocks glasses solve that problem, but do nothing to focus the aromatics. Enter these. Cut crystal, tapered rim, and so satisfying to have in hand. While I will always recommend keeping your spirits at cellar temperature, there may be a time when large cube ice may be necessary…and these glasses can accommodate it.
