“The ideal glass, so I've been told by many whisk(e)y distillers, for tasting is a stemmed glass that has a wider base than the nose, like ISO or Cordial glass,” explains Goodfellow.
Each 6-ounce glass is designed to show off the color and the aroma of the spirit. These Glencairn glasses are beloved by whiskey drinkers as they concentrate the aromas-something a rocks glass does not. “A Glencairn glass really lets you fully appreciate the notes you get on the nose and the layering of the flavors.” 'I'm quite stuck on the traditional Glencairn glass,” describes Nicole Ross, the head bartender of New York City's The Chester.
