Watch Peter McKinnon? Similar take on sponsors. Still like it.
I was just think, if any company would sponsor a channel with âshitâ in the name. Seems they dont mind. Well done and thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I got the Dragon glass as a gift. I didn't think too much of it at first, but if you leave it on the table in front of you with the opening pointed to your face, you can get wafts of the alcohol you're drinking. I also kind of hold it kind of like you'd hold a snifter, but with the pointed bottom resting between my ring and middle finger. It just kind of naturally sits there.
I wouldn't say these make the glass better. I also wouldn't claim these as selling points at all. Just what I've observed by interacting with the glass for a while.
I went on this journey years ago. My conclusion is it really depends on the whisky. I like the Norlan for most whiskies with a lot of barrel. The Glencairn for peaty or complex drinks and the rocks for most everything else. I find myself using the rocks more often and the others for special nips. I really like the Norlan but I've found a few whiskies that just don't play well in it. It really just comes down to whatever you prefer.
WHERE IS THE NEAT GLASS
im too hard to drink out of the bottle. I just drink straight out of the barrel!
I drink straight out of the tank. amature!
I drink it before it goes in the barrel.
i drink it before it's even liquid
I eat the barley before it's even malted
I snort the raw ingredients
I like a two-pronged approach. Glencairn for when I'm tasting a new whisky or really want to dissect it, and rocks glass for everyday drinking.
Glencairn (any tapered small mouth glass) under 55-60% abv... generally
Old Fashion/DOF (wide mouth tumbler) for the barrel proof juice (55%+ abv)
Personally, I drink a lot of whiskey that legally qualifies as hazmat (or close to it) and I prefer not having liquor laser beams scorching the delicate inner lining of my nostrils when I drink that delicious nectar of the Gods. So I give my barrel proofs a wide birth! :-)
Damn you drink whiskey every day?
@@AdvanceBoss1 "everyday" as one word means common, normal, or typical, not literally every day. If I meant that I was drinking every day I would have said "daily".
Curtis Bailey okay brother lol
I only use my Glen for my top shelf, I have a lot of sub $30 bourbon that is mostly just for rocks glass sipping.
I canât believe I just spent 21 minutes watching a Bearded Dude talk about Whiskey glasses but this video was terrific and I learned a ton and I am BUYING the Norlen Whiskey Glasses for my collection. Thank you you Bearded Bud.
How much do those glasses run ?
Glencairns are definitely the "gold standard". I find my whiskey experience is significantly enhanced by them.
Thanks for covering our diamond glasses, Jeremy!
I recently bought a set of these. Very cool-looking.
@@eespinosa64 my mother-in-law gave me their Diamond Decanter set for Father's day last year. It's asthetic, IMO, is great without losing a ton of functionality. I recently bought just the whiskey glass set to add to it. Definitely recommend.
You are basically the only creator where I donât even skip the promotions, because even the promotions are entertaining
I had a similar experience with Norlen vs Glencairn. I do 99% of my whiskey drinking with a Glencairn simply because I have a bunch of them from all the clubs I'm involved in and getting them as gifts. The Norlen seems to mute the alcohol a bit and I've noticed a little bit sweeter flavor in my limited experience with them. I think aroma plays a huge role in drinking so the rocks glasses get reserved for cocktails.
When nosing, try opening your mouth a little when inhaling it, this cuts down on the alcohol burn. Similar to retro-haling a cigar and the different notes experienced, when nosing whiskey also try putting your nose up to the glass and breath in through your mouth only, there's a whole other set of notes there too and almost no alcohol burn. That said, for me the Glencairn is my favorite. I love all whiskey, but I hold scotch in a higher regard. My first sip of Laphroaig was in a Glencairn and when I see one with brown nectar in the bottom I am instantly brought back to that day, where my love for all things peaty and smoky began. Love the videos Jeremy, keep them coming!
I recently got myself some Norlan glasses, before seing this video, and I actually did the same experiment than you on different glasses. I can only agree with you on all these points. And I also checked the temperature difference from one glass to an other. The Norlan stays pretty chill even in the sun and your booze keeps chill too. Great glasses! Cheers...
I am FIRMLY in the "glass type changes flavor profile" camp. Just yesterday, I bought a GlenDronach Original 12 yr Single Malt Scotch that I poured into a Glencairn and I didn't like it. There was far too much bite and even a stale flavor on the back of the throat. I then used a rocks glass (only holding to sip, so no heat transfer) and it immediately made it more palatable and smoothed it out significantly. I was able to enjoy it more.
The shape of the glass and width definitely affects the way the whisky is presented.
Try twirling it in the glen for a bit first, and then let it rest a minute. Also, the first pour is often the harshest as it will likely contain the most concentrate of vapors.
Often it is recommended to let the whiskey sit for about 10 min before nosing it. First sniff should be just over the glass. Second should be above the rim. Third nose in the glass. Getting more robust each time. I like the Glencairn glass just for that more intense experience.
I am a simple man. I get notified of a new Man Shit Monday, I watch it, I like it.
Love it! đ€đ»đ€đ»
Shot glasses reminds me of crappy liquor, regret, bad decision, & worst hangovers..
You nailed it.đđ„
Yeah, that seriously made me laugh. He hit it right on the head
Glencairn for me all day, everyday! (also I hold it with my palm facing upwards, so you won't warm up the whisky or do the pinky-finger thing đ) Great video as always mate đ
Got the Dragon Glassware set with Decanter as a Christmas gift with Johnny Walker Double Black and Happy New Year.
Well, I use a 10 oz Ozark Trail cup. I like to lay back in a fire pit, camping, and grilling. I dropped it a couple of times... no waste.
Also, I use it for coffee too.
I like your style man
For someone who has just started to enjoy/learn about whiskey, this video was superb....i have quite a lot to understand, and your video has been a great intro for me....Thanks!
I have the two top picks, so I am happy to announce that you guys have good taste....because you agree with me
I dont even drink i just hang out around here just coz the videos are so cool
As a retired US Navy Sailor I've got years of drinking under my belt but now Im looking to refine my pallet. New sub!
I have the Norlan glasses, and I drink Whiskey and Tequila out of them, and I gotta say, these glasses are fantastic!
I use a Glencairn for tasting whiskey, I use a rocks glass for drinking it. Also, the more you drink out of a Glencairn you will notice your body starts making little adjustments so you don't have to do to the 'stare at the ceiling' to take a drink. I noticed I naturally open my jaw a little more, tilt the glass more once it is resting on my lip, and other little tweeks so I can still look at people when I am drinking but it wasn't right away. I like the Norlan, just not at that price point.
Love this channel. I have and use 3 of the 4 glasses you tested, I do not have the dragon glass. On the other hand I found a way to limit the heat transfer from hand to glass, drink it faster in which ever glass you use. (it may make for a shorter night, but it works if heat transfer is a problem.) Great video.
I will never look at my whiskey glasses the same. You did an amazing job with this presentation. đ„đđœđŻ
just got some Norlan glasses and they have become my go to, 3 separate days and two differing friends, it works, put simply!
Gave a pair of the Norlans to a friend for Christmas. She likes Jameson, double, neat. Perfect glass for her.
I have the Dragon glasses, Rocks, and Glencairn. The Dragon glasses look great, but my favorite is still the Rocks glass. Glancairn is more difficult to drink from and, yeah, feels a little too fancy to me.
I have four of the Norlan whiskey glasses. Two each of the clear and flat black. Best whiskey glasses đ„ ever.
For nosing it's hard to beat the Glencairn. For social drinking I prefer a Libby's Bourbon glass. (Proud member of the Bourbon Brigade)
For starters, your approach to advertising is brilliant, the vary first channel on CZcams I don't skip through the ads, they are intelligent and humors A+.
Real men don't need to force their ideas on others, you like what you like, you explain why and you don't apologize for it, confidence not ego.
Ascetically i appreciate the walls, Wainscoting and trim painted the flat grey.
Subscription earned for a channel of quality, well done.
The Norlan is a modified Glenciarn inner-sleeve with a slightly more open rim, with a Tumbler-style outer shell. That's why the nose is almost the same, but your hand doesn't warm the whiskey because of the double-wall construction, resulting in fewer expressed fumes. Best of both worlds, defeating the " nubbin" hold style of the Glenciarn. Dragon Glass is a stemless snifter... which is a nice modern take on a very oldschool/ classic way to drink spirits.
i use the norlan for my milk and cookies before bed
Sir, you are a distinguished gentleman, with a fine taste.
I love the glencairn, though the thing about the nose is I think the best distance varies from person to person based on how strong your sense of smell is. It looks like you just dove straight into it, which makes sense cause when you drink that's what it'll be. But I believe Rex from the Whiskey Vault actually explained to start further away and then slowly approach it and stop when you register the notes, cause further and you'll get more ethanol.
Hello Sir,
FIRST MY DISCLAIMER
**** everyone's choices will vary****
now with that out of the way...
My Brother.... you sold me on the Glencairn... as I normally drink from rock glasses, with the Glencairn I smell and taste notes... recently tested with Uncle Nearest 1884 (93 Proof) and I was impressed... just wanted to share my opinion... I thank you for ALL of your videos.. you are very appreciated
Just ordered yesterday the Borland glasses. Looking forward of putting in some JohnnyWalker blue and enjoying
I have three of these. Rocks, Glencairn, and Norlan. I need to explore the Norlan more often. I like rocks for casual, Glencairn for tastings, and Norlan for right in between the two.
My response would mirror yours precisely. So I will just give yours a đ
Your findings are very much inline with my own. As much as I like the "gold standard" Glencairn, I find that my Norlan glass is a much better experience all around. It noses better than any other glass I have ever used and I really love the aesthetics of it! Well worth the price...if you are not afraid to pay good $$ for a bottle, then you should be OK to pay good $$ for a glass to enjoy it in.
My favorite is the GlenCairn. Have an awesome New Years eve, Andreas đžđȘ
Dude, I agree on the shot glasses. It's like I have PTSD from the days of being stationed down in Florida when I turned 21 a million years ago, and drinking stuff that tasted like it came out of a gas tank, and then waking the next day with a murderous hangover. I can't even stand the thought of doing shots anymore.
Had two Glencairns for a few years. Then my wife got me a set of Norlan glasses for my birthday last year. And if I had to, I would rate them pretty much the same way. Rocks glass for the âOld Fashionâ. Shoot glass for the clearish stuff for south of the boarder.
Funny we went uppersit direction on the Norlan - I got the Rauk Heavy Tumbler and the Valid glass. So.. my tumbler is clear, my taster is black - The Valid has a cool effect, because its double walled.. and black, it acts like a Mirror - making the Whiskey glow from within
But my opinion... i just love to look at the whiskey in the Norlan glasses.. makes me enjoy it more. Becomes like a ritual.. you know taking out the special glass for the special liquor and just enjoy it. savour every sip
I wasnât even thinking about drinking outta the bottle until this video đ€Ł so thanks for that! Pirate time!!
You are by far my favorite youtuber. You just need to upload more often. All good content though everything that im intođ
Those Norlan glasses are looking so good that I couldn't resist and I bought 2 sets. It will be nice to drink a nice Kentucky bourbon from that glass. Thanks for the tip. BTW, great video, really enjoyed it.
I've actually started to really like my little mini 4 oz rocks glass. Tilts back like a rocks, but small lip like a glencairns. More comfortable in the hand than a rocks glass, because it's like just the bottom half of a 8 oz 1 cup glass. Straight walled glass. I drink blended Irish whiskey on the rocks in it. But I just got some glencairns and really like the feel of it.
Jeremy is the only guy that can get me to watch a 20 min video about something im not that interested in haha. Great video man! We need another good ol Jeremy vlog soon tho too
The word "personality" comes to mind with hints of intrigue, notes of captivation and a bit of subtle maturity from the host.â€
Norlan feels like a plastic cup and, for some reason, picks up fingerprints like no tomorrow. By the second glass it looks foggy and way dirty. Nose, for me, is very muted. Slightly better than a standard glass. That being said, I won't refuse a whisky poured in it. :)
Definitely sensed a lot of Norlan bias from the get go on this one. Great video none the less.
ColdDeck45 never had that problem outta mine. Been using it for about 2 years
Yeah, that's another thing... the pairs feel FRAGILE!!
As a #WhiskeyTube channel that started MOSTLY due to Whiskey Vault it was good to see another video about this. My default is a Glencairn glass of course, and I even have some that are Glencairn rocks glasses because I like the shape but want more room for my ice. The only drawback from a standard rocks glass is when you get a neat pour at a bar and... well it looks like so little whiskey in that type of glass. I do want to get a Norlan glass someday AND something I head of not long ago called a Tuath Irish whiskey glass... cuz they fancy. Once I have my bar setup completed I will need to do my own glass comparison and see how my own biases stand up to what I seem to prefer. Now all you need to do is find an excuse to visit Texas and invade the whiskey vault in person! SlĂĄinte!
I love my stainless steel snute glass. It is similar to a cross between a glen and a rocks. Plus it's tough especially day drinking and wrenching!
Norlan glasses and Glencairn for sure are the best for drinking it neat. For nosing....the Glencairn. Love the Norlan, but wish it was a little heavier weight. I also love the feel of a crystal rocks glass and will choose this if Iâm having whiskey with ice.
Preferably a glass with no holes in it.
It should have at least one...
Don't get the Pythagoras cup then
Love the Deadpool -esk multiple personality that Jeremy has adapted for he's sponsored videos. Great editing and B Roll
brother.
What about the glasses ability to take ice.
Thanks man! Try to keep the ads more interesting for you guys!
As for ice, I only use large cubes when I do add ice. Which kinda limits to pretty much the rocks glasses. All the others are really to small. đđđ»
@@JeremySiers I know that's why I asked đ€Ł thx for replying. All while I have you talking about ice..... Have you or would you try the steel Whiskey stones or balls, I have heard good things.
I have had the Norlan glasses since their kickstarter campaign. It is my favorite as well. Even purchase 2 of the black whiskey glasses when they came out. If I have 1 negative it is that they feel delicate/light in my hand. 1 of the four glasses I original purchased has broken while washing.
I did bought the Norland glasses 3-4 month ago and I really like them đđ.
Good choice on the Woodford reserve. Tiss delicious and my fave
I have both the Norlan clear and black, alongside the Rauk Norlan too. Awesome
The glencairn is the go to glass for nosing, for what that is worth, but it is a pain to drink out of. I use a nice sized tulip shaped glass or a rocks glass. I would call the tulip glass that I use the 'Zoftig' of glasses. Whatever whiskey I like, I just go to my tulip or a nice crystal rocks glass. Easy to drink out of and nice to hold. I don't have a Norlan, but I might just to give one a try and get a few to put in my bar.
I love your style..and knowledge
I think for the glen glass it depends on what you are drinking. I drink some strong scotch whiskeys/whiskys and bourbon barrel aged whiskeys. So it depends on what you are wanting to do. Enjoy an evening by the fireplace or with a few friends and catch up over a nice glass of something to warm your soul. I have found recently that I am currently in love with some of the more peaty whiskeys like Laphroig and Connemara 12 year.
Honestly, I only use shot glasses for measurements for cocktails & mixed drinks for friends that just want to party a little hard. Otherwise I do agree with your sentiment on shot glasses. One whiskey you might like is Glenmorangie La Santa Sherry Cask Scotch Whisky. It's a slightly tart cherry flavor with some smokeyness on the backend but is friendly to drink neat.
Greetings from Scotland đŽó §ó ąó łó Łó Žó ż my friend loving your work .
The best glass is your favourite glass but a Glencairn is the best and my favourite is my SMWS Glencairn ,got to love SMWS đŽó §ó ąó łó Łó Žó ż
Great review Jeremy!!! I think you should have added the value for price factor, and the Glencairn is way cheaper than the Norland. Keep on editing great videos!! Cheers dude
When I'm sipping Laphroaig 10, more often than not I'm reclined back in my La-Z-Boy. I really appreciate the shape and ergonomics of the Glencairn because of this.
I noticed you had a bottle of Eagle Rare behind the Rocks Glass. I was just out at the Buffalo Trace Distillery. It was started by Thomas Jefferson when he purchased 400 archers of land for corn. It is on the historic registry. It was not Buffalo Trace till 1995, but the buildings and and the land are on the registry. They stayed in operation through prohibition, when you could get a prescription from your doctor.
JS, In some places in Scotland they have stemmed Glencairn glasses which remove the pinkie out sensation, give you more to hold on to and because they have the stem don't force your head back as much. I have Norlan glasses as well and love them but the sippy cup lip becomes a problem when I go from a thin lip glass to the Norlan...I dribble a little which is fine by myself but a bit embarrassing when sipping in a group.
I have 2 Norlan original since 2019 . . . fast forward to 2022, i have not seen any tuber using Norlan for nosing/tasting --- most use a copita or glencairn . . . I only use norlan for guests (nice piece of arts - and pricey ! ) but no diff than my 3$ tumbler . . . good video.
You will find that the thin waist Turkish tea glass experiment is the best among them because it makes it difficult to smell the whiskey inside and it is the best option for those who do not like whiskey burning.
Iâve just ordered up your whiskey flask which has the 10/10 advantage of offering a livener on the move !
I'm glad you mentioned the glencairn and how high you have to tip it up. Just a personal problem with it... I had throat surgery done back in the 90's. Ihave no "hangy down" thing. When I tip the glencairn up to get anything out of the glass I always get choked. Sucking down gasoline and rubbing alcohol down the wrong direction is enough for me to get the red solo cups out. I'll try the Norlan's next. Thanks!
Jeremy, keep your sippy cup! Glencairn all the way for me! You said it yourself, it is the GOLD standard. BTW, great vid and Happy New Year to you and your product pushing twin.
If you're into drinking whiskey on the rocks the Corkicle Ice Wedge Whiskey Glass set is a good one to keep around...
Try blowing on the liquid, removes most of the alcohol burn if you don't like it (roll the liquid around so it coats most of the glass, blow then look at the legs. When they are about halfway down its ready to nose). Also, with the glencairn you can sniff at the top of the glass for a more rounded smell. Sounds weird, but it really works. Use a single nostril if you can. Each one will have slightly different results. Sniff through your nose and exhale through your mouth. I find short sniffs are better than long draws, but each to their own. Have a nosing chart handy to help you identify scents - most of them are pretty vague and often not obvious until they are pointed out. Slainte!
Norlan glass looks amazing and I'd love one, but to me there's no justifying the price. $40+ is too much for one piece of glassware
It's $48 for a set of two.
The glassware is all relative: I have a collection of crystal that all have very specific purposes... even only for special days. Only because of the feeling of comfort they give, or whom I received them from. Baccarat Diamante Double old-fashioned, Edinburgh Thistle DOF ( very rare ), Lots of different Waterford Tumblers, DOF's and snifters... a pair of Glencairn-style by Riedel, among others. Some cost more than I can say without feeling embarrassed, others were a steal, or gifts. Some feel amazing because of shape, weight/ heft, style. Delicate whiskeys are more Glencairn style, to enjoy the nose ( Cragganmore). Others have so much punch they can be served in an Quaich and the nose is still powerful ( Lagavulin/ Laphroaig). The glass enhances your enjoyment of the spirit. Seems a shame, though to serve a $200+ whiskey in a cheap Coke-logoed glass, or such. Some of these spirits deserve the respect that years, if not decades of waiting went into the making. Treat yourself to a nice whiskey glass...Try antiques places, or Ebay. There's some amazing stuff out there, collecting dust, unappreciated, just waiting for you to anoint with the Water of Life. SlĂ inte!!
They were on sale, two for $26.
I have the Norlan RAUK, they are definitely the gold Standard of whiskey glasses!
I recently grabbed dome Glancarin glasses and they're perfect. Only downside: They can hold the smell of detergents and should probably go through the dishwasher instead of being washed by hand.
Use odourless detergent, use very little amount (goes for all hand dishing, you need alot less than people think) and just rinse then out after properly? How hard can it be, I never put finer and thin glasses etc in my washer.
I have never had any problem with my glasses, you clean them and wash them out and youre done.
Rinse them more. The dishwasher will damage it with time. But yeah hand washing is rusky too, those things are really narrow.
@@benjaminsitaud9743 Whisk(e)y does taste better when drank from proper glasses.
@@jakeizlove indeed! I love thoses Glencairn.
Thanks Jeremy I appreciate all your efforts
As someone who uses both the Norlan and the Glencairn when we review whiskies, I completely agree! Great video.
My favorite glass right now is the Frosted Glen from the Bourbon Junkies
I collect shot glasses. I use glencairns and rocks glasses.
Solid points. I only use Glencairn when Iâm nerding out and tasting a new whisky. Otherwise rocks class is my go to. Great in hand easy to drink out of.
Love the Tuath Irish Whiskey glass
Gotta say your conclusions kinda match my own experiences. The Norlan is my favourite as well, but I'd recommend trying a sherry copita nosing glass as well - if you tour distilleries here in Scotland, you tend to find that's what a lot of the blenders use when they're sampling from casks.
Gave Woodford reserve double oaked as a gift. So smooth and it's delicious!!!!!!
The best of both the Glencarin and Rock glass: Canada Glencairn Whiskey Glass
the worst, and the best is Copita Nosing Glass.
Steven Rowell I have to agree...đđšđŠ
I feel your whiskey bottles would look even better if you either A; Backlit them with a withe light behind a coted glass type (like the bar in Lucifer) (if Im not mistaken..) or B; had some led lights drilled down facing upwards into the top part of the shelves themself lighting directly into the bottles (unless this does something to the purity of the drinks over time.. just a suggestion. your place looks dope and I love your channel. great work.
Did someone say Tesla? Well, I do enjoy a good whiskey, and I guess I am a bit tired of drinking it out of an old shoe...so...I'm definitely going to check out these glasses...especially the Tesla of glasses!
Love my Norlan. I normally pour a 2 glass. Norlan and Glenn. I like play with the slight very.
Anyone drinking out of the bottle is more interested in the alcohol and not the flavour. But if that's your thing, go for it. I choose a glass based on the situation. If I want to really enjoy and savour a whiskey, then Glencairn all the way. Because we taste more with our nose (scent) that with our tongues, the narrow mouth concentrates the flavours. If i'm with friends and I'm just drinking whiskey paying more attention to the conversation than what's in my glass, then it's the rock glass. That's just my 2 cents. Anyway, I enjoyed the video.
That St Augustine Distillery Florida Bourbon at 2:54 is definitely a great pour
What better way to start my week off than talking whiskey! I have been drinking from the Tesla of whiskey glasses for the last month now and itâs hard to reach for anything else. Great video brother!đđ»đđ»
Great video, the grading categories were perfect, no BS, hereâs what most everyone looks for when drinking, not influenced by the status quo, damn fine job sir!
Hey Jeremy, Have you try the Turkish Tea Glasses? Norlan's design based on the this tea glasses and when we tested for our new video and we were very surprised with the result.
I received a set of the noland for xmas a few years ago and is my one and only sipping glass. If bnb I'm guzzling it really does not matter. Greg in jefferson city mo
I completely agree that drinking with the glencairn is awkward. You really do have to lift your head up and back before you get any liquid out of it.
I just got some customized glencairn glasses with some bamboo hats to enjoy on the deck with my cigar. The hat keeps the insects out of the glass!
In the man cave....8 oz Ball jelly jars for my pours or depending on what we're drinking....if we're passing the mason jar around with some local goodness in it we'll "kiss the baby"....in the house Norlans Glass for single pours, an antique crystal rocks glass when I'm in the mood or having a cocktail of some sort or, and this is weird but this is just me....I prefer my scotch out of a rocks glass....thanks for a great and informative video....I really appreciate all the effort and hard work you put into your video's....may you and your family have a Happy and safe New Years!!! God Bless!!
Rate the jelly jar from down in the basement. My favorite is the one with Peter Pan printed on it. Friends laugh at me, but for real ... that's the one for me. Combined with tap branch cubes from my vintage 50's aluminum ice trays and we're in business. Start pourin' and don't stop till I tell ya! Bye the by ... your're welcome in my studio any time.
Great video. Iâm a glencairn guy myself
Someone claimed to give me a 23yr scotch in a batman shotglass. It was great. The glencairn is dainty but I really enjoy the smells with that one.
A big fan of the Glencairn. I enjoy holding it between my index and middle finger with my palm facing down. That is both comfortable and easy to drink.
Love that we all have differing views on the "best" glass
Personally love the glencairn, especially the way I hold it and the way it makes me drink. I wrap my hand round the glass and savour every taste
Give me a rocks glass and I drink too fast, Never ever appreciate the nose and want to start on the cocktails (sours, old fashioned etc)
Each to their own, as long as its the "best" whisky in the glass
I have 2 types. A couple of glencairn glasses for when I really wanna go for a tasting. And some tumblers for when I just wanna sip my whisky.
