1920s Blenders Glass
The 1920s Blender’s Glass is what I reach for when I’m tasting something genuinely complex and I want to go hunting for nuance. That wide base lets the whisky open up, and the narrower nose can bring forward aromas that sit in the background in a Glencairn—brilliant for deep dives, but not convenient day-to-day.
