Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Crafted with the help of master distillers in Scotland, Riedels Single Malt Whiskey glasses maximize the sipping pleasures of top-quality single malt whiskey, malt whiskey, and whiskey. Machine-crafted in Austria from 24-percent lead crystal, the shape is practical and charming, with a short stem and an elongated thistle-shaped body. The lip turns outward to catch the characteristic fragrance of the liquor. Completely dishwasher safe. Dimensions: 4 1/2 high, 7-ounce full capacity

Amazon.com Review
If you tend to echo the words of actor Joe Don Baker in Mitchell--when asked, "How do you like your Scotch?" he replied, "By the quart"--then the Riedel Vinum series single malt whiskey glass may not be your cup of Teaninich. Not so for fans of small-batch Bourbons and other nonblended whiskies: with its flared lip and wide tulip-shaped bowl atop the circular base, this vessel is designed to direct its contents to flavor-friendly areas of the mouth and nose. The underlying theory of all Riedel stemware states that the tongue is divided into four zones, each recognizing either sweetness, bitterness, saltiness, or acidity; by changing the size and shape of the glass, Riedel can accentuate wine's and spirits' positives while mitigating negatives. Unlike the traditional brandy snifter, which concentrates the alcoholic vapors and burns out the shnoz, the lip of the single malt glass disperses them, allowing you to enjoy the subtleties, whether your drink be Speyburn or sour mash. --Tony Mason

Makes good scotch Great! December 16, 2007
When I first saw these "tulipy" glasses, I thought there would be no way they would ever serve scotch at my house. My father-in-law bought a set and after having my first sip, I was sold. Reidel does an excellent job in their design to match the glass to the intricacies of the liquor, in this glass. The main difference that I notice is the difference, and added pleasure, of aroma to the drinking experience. While the tongue may get numb after a few sips, the nose keeps working. The flared glass end, as compare to a traditional straight glass, adds just the right amount of air to dilute the strong alcohol aroma, creating the perfect balance. I highly recomend! Try side by side to your old glass.

Spend your money on good scotch...and good glasses December 20, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

These are amazing glasses--they dramatically increase the experience of a fine scotch. While I imagine they would work for any aromatic spirit, they seem very well suited to scotch.

I prefer Islay scotches, which have an aggressive nose, and these glasses really improve the experience by concentrating the bouquet. The glasses are a delightful heavy crystal, and a pleasure to hold as well as drink from.

Don't know the exact reason why, but these are the best I've tried--far better than brandy snifters--for tasting the full complexity of a good spirit. Not just single malts but blended Scotch, bourbon, even aged rum. If you don't like the taste in these glasses, then you should change your choice of alcohol. Or dump it into a highball glass, cover with Seven-Up and top with a cherry and umbrella.

I like good bourbon (Jack Daniels Single Barrel) and have found out that it tastes even better from these Riedel glasses. It is remarkable to take a taste test; it is almost unbelievable. We also have Riedel wine glasses which we enjoy as well. Riedel is a good value for people who enjoy good booze.
