THE GLENCARIN RIP OFF
Champagne, Cognac, Wine . . . each type of liquor has its
own glass. Yet whisky, the world’s most complex spirit can be found served in
anything from highball tumblers to Paris goblets to tequila shot glasses.
Only the connoisseur of Malt Whisky and the sybarite know
that Scotch Malt Whisky is composed of FIVE elements: The Colour, the Nose, the
Serpent waiting to be released, the Palate and the Finish. It was when Malt
Whiskies came into the limelight some 25 years ago that sellers realised that
they had been sleeping, since most malts were used to glamorise the Scotch
Whisky Blends market. Single Malt drinkers out of tumblers, wine and shot
glasses were immediately picked out as the nouveau riche, moneyed persons with
no class! And certainly No Taste!!
The GLENCAIRN Whisky Glass is a revolutionary whisky glass
that really lets one savour the taste and complexity of fine whisky. These are the
ONLY GLASSES for your Single Malt Whiskies. With the tapered mouth, you are
able to really sniff all nuances the whisky has to offer. Any malt advocate
will love this glass! Why then, do some so-called whisky ‘connoisseurs’ spend
thousands on the most complex, rewarding, pleasure-giving liquids yet contrived
by humanity, and then drink them from tumblers? “Philistines!” says Andy
Davidson. “Tumblers are useless when it comes to focusing or enhancing the taste
experience of whisky. They were originally used to prevent you from smelling
bad whisky.” 
He should know. In 1976, his father, Raymond Davidson, saw
this lacuna and designed a glass, but imperfect, as he called it. He then
personally went to the top ‘noses’ or blenders of the Scotch Whisky industry with
his design and asked them for their opinions. Meeting failure after failure as
the so called cognoscenti stuck to tumblers, it took 25 years and one
generation of Malt Whisky enthusiasts to realise its true value. After
extensive interaction and experiments, Andy Davidson’s Glencairn Crystal solved
the problem of identifying the ideal glass for whisky Andy came out of the
design phase and, with the blessings of the top five blenders of Scotch Whisky,
went to market in 2001.
Today the Glencairn Glass can be found at every distillery in
Scotland, Ireland, Wales as well as most in the USA. In 2006 the glass won the
Queen's Award for innovation.
The shape of the Glencairn whisky glass is derived from the
traditional nosing copitas used in whisky labs around Scotland, a style lovingly
developed by Glencairn Crystal Ltd, Scotland for drinking whisky. The capacity
of a typical Glencairn whisky glass is approximately 175 ml, and is intended to
hold approximately 50 ml of liquid, 1/14th of the capacity of 700 ml
bottles of Scotch Whisky in the EU and 1/15th that of an American or
Indian 750 ml bottle.
The 175 ml glass is 115 mm (4.5 in) in height and is
available in two versions: 24% lead crystal and lead-free crystal glass. The
vast majority of glasses in circulation are of the lead-free crystal variety. The
Glencairn glass was originally designed for pub/bar use so it is a sturdy
little glass. The bottom is heavy so it's not easily tipped over and is easily
grasped. It feels good in the hand. My Glencairn glasses are crafted from
lead-free crystal.
The Glencairn glass is the ONLY glass on the market that is
designed specifically for drinking whisky and endorsed as such by the Scotch
Whisky Association; it is used by every whisky company in Scotland and Ireland
and many in the USA for their Bourbons.
The traditional style of whisky glass is a cut crystal Old
Fashioned whisky tumbler, the most commonly used type of whisky glass. However,
a tumbler does not hold and focus the aromas as much for the experience of the
drinker as the Glencairn, which curve inwards towards the top of the glass. Inward-curved
glasses are the preferred choice of connoisseurs who consider the aroma
especially important to the experience of a whisky.
