Whiskey glasses

For whiskey

— the traditional glassware for whiskey is considered to be a low, rather wide glass with a thick bottom, straight or tapering downwards. Such a glass is known under the names "tumbler", "old fashion" or "rocks"; there may be other options and names, but the principle of the device is generally the same. At the same time, in addition to this, there is another type of whiskey vessel — tulip glasses made of thin glass on a high stem. Such glasses are designed for the use of drinks of the middle and especially higher price range, including single malt varieties: the shape of the glass allows the aroma of the drink to reveal itself to the maximum, and the drinker's hand is at some distance from the bowl, which does not allow smells from the skin to mix with the smell of whiskey. But it is highly not recommended to use inexpensive varieties from the "tulip" — the smell can be unpleasant.
