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.

Whisky. Elevated.
A unique, lightweight design featuring double-walled borosilicate glass.
Ethanol
Aromatics
Aeration
Special protrusion forms inside the whisky 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
Nosing glasses 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 aromatics.
Tumblers
A cool social glass, the wide opening of a tumbler diffuses the aromatics of the spirit too widely, fading and flattening them out. This results in a diminished nosing and tasting experience.
Reviews

Frequently asked questions
We do not recommend storing the glass in the freezer because of the risk of thermal shock.
Please also note that the glass should not be placed in a microwave or oven.
While we do not offer engraving services, any engraving specialist should be more than happy to work on these glasses.
Note: The black edition of the Norlan Whisky Glass is coated in a matte black lacquer. Engraving the exterior will remove this finish.
While the glasses passed a multitude of dishwashing tests, we recommend you always hand wash and dry your glasses with a non-abrasive cloth to ensure their longevity.
No. That color you see on the rim is the brilliant whisky contained within. It's a great effect.
The inside of the VAILD edition is clear borosilicate glass. The shimmering gold is the result of light becoming trapped within the blackened walls of the glass and refracting through the whisky.
While the Norlan Whisky Glass was developed for the appreciation of whisky, we’ve found that it performs equally well for any spirit containing a high ABV where nosing is an important aspect of the drinking experience.
Sorry, but we do not offer mixed sets at this time.
The Norlan Whisky Glass is sold as a set of two. You'll receive them in a meticulously designed gift box that can be re-used (if desired) to store the glasses.
The new black edition of the Norlan Whisky Glass has a sllightly difference surface than the original. If you are ordering to match your original set of glasses, kindly note that there will be a very minor difference in tone and feel.
