FOUNDING STORY

Norlan is an international brand focused on elevating the whisky drinking experience through design, science, and ritual.

Our first product, the Norlan Whisky Glass, was successfully funded on Kickstarter in December 2015, exceeding our initial funding goal by 1,000%.

The Norlan team consists of three driven individuals with a combined experience of over three decades in the design and retail industries.
