Glencairn Crystal Glass
Best tasting vessel for whisky enthusiasts enjoying modest, measured pours.
This miniature vessel solves the problem of a standard glass looking empty when you only want a modest pour. It retains the iconic aroma-enhancing shape of the original, though its compact size makes it better suited for focused tasting flights than a long, lingering evening dram.
