Like wine, some spirits demand a special sort of attention where conventional approaches fall short. For avid whisk(e)y drinkers, deliberation on style, water ratios and temperature are commonplace, yet surprisingly, it's the vessel that holds the liquid that is often overlooked.

Designed by local Melbourne boys, Denver Cramer and Liely Faulkner, their bespoke glass was born of a curiosity to explore the depths of their whisky collections.  So what makes their glass unique? 

"Traditionally the tumbler has been seen as the vessel of choice for the majority of whisky drinkers and the ‘whisky snifter’ relegated to the small group of true whisky tasters.  D&L have now combined these worlds. The hand-blown shape of the D&L Whisky Glass combines the benefits of taste and smell associated with a traditional whisky snifter with the versatility and style of a classic tumbler. The wide base maximises the surface area of a standard measure, funneling the aromas through the tapered body to the optimally sized opening. This reveals the whisky’s full character.."

Needless to say, the glass also looks very elegant. Each one is packaged in a numbered cylinder.
