Norlan Whisky Glass - Original

Norlan Whisky Glass - VAILD Edition

DESCRIPTION

Meet the original double-walled whisky glass. Developed to elevate your favorite whisky (or whiskey)—whether Scotch, Bourbon, Rye, Canadian, Japanese, you name it—the Norlan Whisky Glass has been designed to capture whisky's unique flavors and aromatics and deliver them to the senses like never before.

Designed in 2015 by co-founder Sruli Recht, the glass was further refined with the help of legendary master distiller Jim McEwan on Scotland’s Isle of Islay. Since being released, nearly ½ million Norlan Whisky Glasses have been sold worldwide, with the glass consistently ranking in online surveys as one of the best whisky glasses to buy.

Produced entirely by hand from lightweight borosilicate glass, the unique design combines a scientifically performing inside with an aesthetically beautiful outside. The result is a tasting glass unlike any other; the perfect vessel for you or the fine spirit enthusiast in your life.

A Whisky Glass That Delivers

Ethanol

Aromatics

Aeration

Special protrusion forms inside our tasting glass create wave-like movements in the liquid when it is swirled within the bowl. This helps to release the ethanol within the spirit, allowing the scents to become more present when nosing, which in turn improves the flavor when drinking.

Advantages over other glasses

Copitas

Tulip shaped nosing glasses, with their narrowed rim, often concentrate the shape of the vapor in such a way that they tightly focus it, causing the ethanol to punch into the eyes and nose, and concealing the aromas.

Tumblers

A cool social glass, the wide opening of a tumbler (or rocks glass) diffuses the aromas of the spirit too widely, fading and flattening them out. This results in a diminished nosing and tasting experience.

Reviews

Beautiful glasses

My husband loves them! He says they give off more aroma and the glasses are insulated so the whiskey stays at the same temperature.

Unparalleled whisky glass

This is the best whisky glass on the market. Each piece is beautifully crafted to make each tasting an experience that is visceral, enjoyable and unparalleled.

I love love love these glasses

We don't just use them for whiskey but also for sake as they keep it cool from our warm hands :-) They're beautiful and we get comments on them all the time! Highly recommended.

How to use our whisky glass

Think of the Norlan Whisky Glass as a finely calibrated tool, designed to get the most out of your whisky and give you an unrivaled drinking experience. While there’s no one way to enjoy whisky, this vessel was developed as a neat glass, meaning the spirit should be tasted without the addition of ice cubes. The primary reason for this is that ice will cool the fluid and diminish the presence of aromas. (For whisky on the rocks, we've got the perfect tumbler.)

This is a compact glass, but by no means diminutive. Its size is based on providing the optimal space for a traditional pour to be swirled within the inner volume. This is anywhere from 0.7 to 1.4 ounces of spirit. Pour no higher than the top of the inner protrusions and you’ll get the most out of your dram.

After pouring the real fun begins. To get those myriad aroma molecules unlocked, you'll want to give your glass a good swirl to get the whisky moving inside. From there, you can smell and taste your pour as you see fit. We won't drill down into the details of "proper" nosing and tasting here, but chiefly, we recommend you take your time and savor every sip of that liquid gold.
