Classy design and use. Should be heavier crystal as men tend to use this more than women. But still well worth the investment.

The crystal glasses are beautiful, as well as, functional. They are elegant and finely crafted, yet I put them in the dishwasher. My husband says they are perfect for sipping his single malt whiskey.

These scotch glasses are GREAT for bringing out the flavor of the scotch. We have a little scotch every Sunday in these glasses. They are a little expensive but they are a lot better than the mini brandy sniffers we were using. We think the stem should have been a little taller. [...]

 
Nice
By aewVerified Purchaser from Dayton, OH on 1/20/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design
Cons:
Stem too stubby
Best Uses:
Informal Dining

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I like these glasses enough to order a second set. Perfectly functional as designed. The only thing I would change, as a personnel preference, is to add a fraction more length to the stem.

Good value for 4 single malt glasses
By AbeVerified Purchaser from Grafton, MA on 12/14/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable to Hold
Best Uses:
Formal Dining, Informal Dining, Special Occasion
Describe Yourself:
Connoisseur, Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Haven't used them long enough to discern any special characteristics of a whisky (over a normal glass), but time will tell, and they are about the most comfortable design for a whisky glass, so probably worth the money for that alone.

 
Not the same as Photo
By Consistent CustomerVerified Purchaser from Atlanta on 11/20/2007
Pros:
Dishwasher Safe
Cons:
Too Heavy
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I have previously purchased these glasses from WE.
The "new" glass is heavier, has a thicker stem and appears to be a much lower quality that the Single Malt glasses from the past. The 'old' glass is in your photo. Might want to take a look at what you are shipping out. How do you spell 'fast one'?

 
You Need to Get These Glasses
By DaveVerified Purchaser from Heidelberg, Germany on 11/12/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable to Hold
Cons:
Somewhat Expensive
Best Uses:
Formal Dining, Informal Dining, Special Occasion
Describe Yourself:
Frequent Entertainer, Practical, Stylish
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

If you enjoy Scotch Whiskey, then you need to get a set of these glasses. I was unsure of all the hype contained in the ads, but it is true. These glasses make otherwise mediocre whiskeys good and make excellent whiskeys even better. Tasting the Scotch side by side (in a different/traditional glass) has made a believer out of many of my guests. Even non-Scotch drinkers (who thought Scotch was too harsh) have enjoyed the aroma and taste of the spirit when served in these glasses. The good news is that you will definately taste the difference. The bad news is that your good stuff will seem to go much faster ;-).
