TunnelTiger Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Can a man love more than one whisky? Of course, a man can have many loves.Well I am definitely a bigamist when it comes to my whisky and might I add proud of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still with polygamist!(BTW - for beer fans, Wasatch Brew Pub in Salt Lake City makes a Polygamy Porter that's solid, but t-shirt is perfect!

whiskeyagonzo Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I found this shot glass at an antique mall. I had never seen anything like it. It's an Old Fitzgerald shooter glass. I don't usually take shots but I found it interesting. It's hard to get a good picture but it basically says only use 100 proof OF. It has different measuring lines for the 100 proof equivalent of having a shot of 86 and 90 proof whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravensfire Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It's solid, but if anyone comes here: we have some world class beer, Polygamy is a good ways down my list.Absolutely agree. Was there last Memorial Day for a volleyball tournament and hit several craft beer pubs while we were there and enjoyed just about all the ones I tasted. Apologies for not saying that. I was pleasantly surprised at the overall quality. My wife was quite upset that all she got was a Squatter's t-shirt (and no, it was not the polygamy). We're hoping to go back in a couple of years - absolutely incredible views everywhere we looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjbeggs Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 As it's already gotten into the 90's here, I've been doing more sipping with an ice-ball added. Picked up a pair of these Sun's Tea Double wall whiskey glasses. They keep that ice ball intact for a good while. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006GWQ988/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModernThirst Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I use a glencairn about 90% of the time, but I found these at Pier 1 for about $3 and they're awesome for an ice sphere: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 just ordered a set. They are on sale.Got mine today and love them. They are heavier than I expected but my ice barrel fits perfectly and the ice does melt slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjbeggs Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Received mine and finally open them after a long while. First impression, don't like them at all. Had a first pour then pour it back into the Glencairin glass instead. I'm going to give this to my brother to drink beer with or something.

tigerlam92 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Tiger, what did you not like about them? Admittedly, they are a big change from a Glencairn. Biggest difference being the thick "lip", but that's the nature of the beast.I don't use mine every day, but when I want to add an ice ball, I tend to reach for these glasses. Enoch, glad you like yours. (And since this post makes me sound like one, No I'm not a Sun's Tea salesperson). Hahaha. May sound snobbish It's not at all like the picture. It feels a little cheap like plastic, the opening too big. I guess I'm just too used to the Glencairn glasses that's all. The only other glass I use are the ORVW glasses. The concept is nice though.

Enoch Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) I collect taster glasses from craft beer breweries. Since they usually hold about 4 oz. they are a nice size to drink bourbon. My favorite are the ones that look like small brandy sniffers but a lot hardier. Here are two I got at Broken Compass (breckenridge) and Crooked Stave (denver). Hardy goes a long way with me. I'm down to about 15 of my original 24 glens. Edited August 8, 2014 by Enoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavius Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 I ordered and am looking forward to receiving two 5oz Stolzle Glencairn/Copita glasses from Cobhthaigh Celtique. I placed the order around 1PM and they were shipped three hours later to be delivered Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavius Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Got my Copita glasses. They're pretty nice to be honest. I can see myself using them quite a bit. Here's a picture of one next to a regular Glencairn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grain Belt Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I found the the same glass at an antique store in MN! I found this shot glass at an antique mall. I had never seen anything like it.

Vadertime Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hands down my mini Glencarn I got at a WhiskyLive event. It is small enough that vapor does not blast the nose, and due to its small size be robust enough to not require pussyfootin around when handling.

BFerguson Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Been revising my Riedel Ouverture bourbon glasses lately after loving the Canadian Glencairns. Remembering why I like these so much. They are a nice tasting glass.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clavius Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 I got this little 1/2 pint Glencairn water pitcher the other day. It's pretty cool for adding a tiny bit of water to your favorite dram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
