Anyone else getting in on the pre order for the Norlan whisky glasses? I feel like even if it doesn't end up living up to the hype at least it's aesthetically pleasing. I love my glen cairns but this thing seems awesome.
Not shipping until october.

But if nothing else, it is unique glassware that looks interesting. For me, the visual appearance of the whisky through good glass adds to the experience. |

A bottle of Jameson lasts me a year or so.....
I usually pour a couple fingers in a high-ball glass and watch the sun go down once it starts getting cold out... No need for fancy tipplers to enjoy such gifts from God |

There's some discount codes out there from the different whisky reviewers. They were $42 delivered for the set of two, which funny enough is about what the glen cairns were five years ago when they started shipping. |

Outside of the original kickstarter group they haven't shipped yet except to reviewers and distilleries. This one is meant for neat whisky, it has a small protrusion that sticks up in the center of the inner tulip glass so help oxidize the whisky.
here's some awesome pictures of the glasses actually being made. Link for pictures |

If they were $42 for a set of two then that's a great deal IMO if you like bourbon and want something cool to drink from.... Mine were gifted so I didn't check the price. But I was thinking $50 to $80 per glass.

My father in law used to do the same, then i turned him on to Blanton's. Then worked him away from the ice. He still adds a dash of water, but i'll allow it.

That was supposed to be a playful snarky remark in response to what I took as a playful snarky remark. I didn't realize it was going to trigger some people. (not you). I agree that good whisky is good out of anything. I think the best thing I ever tasted was out of a plastic cup fresh out of a whisky thief. However, if something could add to the experience why not?
