The Glencairn Glass! In the long and illustrious history of whisky, there has never been a single definitive glass that whisky could call its own. Now, the Glencairn Glass has arrived. The unique and stylish shape has been crafted with care to enhance the enjoyment of single malts and aged blends. The tapered mouth allows ease of drinking not usually associated with nosing glasses, while still capturing the all important bouquet. The wide bowl allows the whisky to 'open' for the fullest appreciation on the color and aroma, while the solid base makes the glass easy to hold. Each glass is engraved on the bottom "The Glencairn Glass" to prove authenticity. Standing 4 and 1/2 inches tall, the Glencairn Glass was awarded the 2006 Queen's Innovation Award - a coveted prize!
