Watch Peter McKinnon? Similar take on sponsors. Still like it.
I was just think, if any company would sponsor a channel with “shit” 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
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.
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.
You are basically the only creator where I don‘t even skip the promotions, because even the promotions are entertaining
I can’t 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.
I am a simple man. I get notified of a new Man Shit Monday, I watch it, I like it.
Love it! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
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 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.
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...
Shot glasses reminds me of crappy liquor, regret, bad decision, & worst hangovers..
You nailed it.👌🥂
Yeah, that seriously made me laugh. He hit it right on the head
Got the Dragon Glassware set with Decanter as a Christmas gift with Johnny Walker Double Black and Happy New Year.
I dont even drink i just hang out around here just coz the videos are so cool
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.
Jeremy thanks for another great informative video and I love the content you have on your channel. I have already picked up a set of the dragon glasses because they look cool and can’t wait try them out. I will pick up the others and give them a try. Happy New Years and stay safe everyone. Cheers.
Thanks Jeremy I appreciate all your efforts
Great content! One of the best discoveries on TH-cam during this quarantine! Take care and keep up the great job! 💪
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 😂) Great video as always mate 👌
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 love seeing your channel grow! Gonna be dope to see you eventually hit 1 mil subs, man 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Love your video’s, just bought my first Ardbeg 10 because of your video recently. Happy New Year
Once again.....YOU ROCKED IT!....Great job my friend....great job!
Great video, the grading categories were perfect, no BS, here’s what most everyone looks for when drinking, not influenced by the status quo, damn fine job sir!
Great videos.....enjoy them very much...thanks
For starters, your approach to advertising is brilliant, the vary first channel on TH-cam 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.
My favorite is the GlenCairn. Have an awesome New Years eve, Andreas 🇸🇪
You are by far my favorite youtuber. You just need to upload more often. All good content though everything that im into👍
Preferably a glass with no holes in it.
It should have at least one...
Don't get the Pythagoras cup then
I have the Norlan glasses, and I drink Whiskey and Tequila out of them, and I gotta say, these glasses are fantastic!
I will never look at my whiskey glasses the same. You did an amazing job with this presentation. 🥃🙌🏽💯
Great video! I was wondering if you knew the brand of the rocks glass you're using? I love the minimalistic look of it!
Hey man, awesome video.... Great editing! Smooth and enjoyable!!!
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!
Great job, I like the way you scored them
As always a very informative and entetaining video. You have a soothing voice that holds your attention.
In my old age I've come to like the plain ole' OJ straight up 3 1/2" glass, I use for sipping whiskey, tequila and sometimes even use for a heavy red wine. Just my 2 cents....HAPPY NEW YEAR!
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.
As someone who uses both the Norlan and the Glencairn when we review whiskies, I completely agree! Great video.
Great video Jeremy and Happy New Year's!! Thought's on whiskey out of a stainless stemless cup? I occasionally use that as well as my whiskey glasses.
I bought the Norlan glasses a week ago, and I love them, definitely my favorite. I think it was after watching this video, so thanks!
Well I was about to wrap up after putting my new video up - then you posted and now I'm hooked on learning about whiskey glasses! Great video as usual mate.
Thanks brother!! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
I love your style..and knowledge
Thanks for another entertaining and informative video, brother. Made me smile to see that St Augustine Bourbon in your video. Went there for our 25th Anniversary last year and was able to tour the distillery. Great tour and great bourbon. I prefer a heavy based rocks glass.
Bro, I love your channel, I've learned so much. Thank you..
Good stuff! Thanks for the info and opinions.
Just ordered yesterday the Borland glasses. Looking forward of putting in some JohnnyWalker blue and enjoying
First time watching your vids. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I especially like how you keep it real and tight. Cheers mate
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 love my Norlan! Just got it for Christmas and can actually get notes without losing nose hairs 😂! Great video!
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
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 it’s hard to reach for anything else. Great video brother!👍🏻👌🏻
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 have the two top picks, so I am happy to announce that you guys have good taste....because you agree with me
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.❤
Interesting video, especially the discussion regarding heat transfer. I have a set that has a slight curve similar to the Glen, but solid glass bottom like the Rocks. I love them....primarily a Glenlivet drinker.
I did bought the Norland glasses 3-4 month ago and I really like them 😚👍.
Fun video! I appreciate the subjective/candid approach to your reviews. Happy New Year, my friend!
Thanks brother! Same to you.
Gave a pair of the Norlans to a friend for Christmas. She likes Jameson, double, neat. Perfect glass for her.
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!
Thanks for the video, I'm sold by The Glencairn
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
Love your videos. Great comparison, brother.
Good choice on the Woodford reserve. Tiss delicious and my fave
i use the norlan for my milk and cookies before bed
Sir, you are a distinguished gentleman, with a fine taste.
Thanks for a great video! I definitely will get me a pair of Norlan Whiskey Glasses. Wonderful videoproduction; great content, performance, photo, light, editing and sound! Damn, I even enjoyed the ad! Top Notch!
Norland is a great combo of Rocks and Glen Carin glasses. Really enjoy using them.
Just found this channel - love it!
just got some Norlan glasses and they have become my go to, 3 separate days and two differing friends, it works, put simply!
I never realized how many whiskey glasses there are. Thank you for this video.
Nice to know that the Norlan did so well-I got that glass for my dad for Xmas last year. :) He has really enjoyed it as far as I know!
Great video. I’m a glencairn guy myself
Great and interesting comparison. It was really entertaining, as well as, educational.
The "sigh" part during ergo of the dragon glass cracked me up. I feel ya. :-)
Solid points. I only use Glencairn when I’m nerding out and tasting a new whisky. Otherwise rocks class is my go to. Great in hand easy to drink out of.
Great video . Love my Norlan set.
Loved your video, actually learned a lot, thanks bro, im a subscriber now
Great video mate. Love the comedic parts. Well done.
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.
Hi Jeremy first time I visseted your channel and I like to thank you for the fun and informing info
I was just looking at your channel to see if you had any new vids out hahaha great timing!
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.
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.
Love your channel bro, it’s awesome. Awesome stuff, can’t wait for more. Cheers 🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃
Great video as always. Love my Norlan but the fragile factor is real. Curious if you've tried the James Bentley glass? Similar to the Norlan, a little less pricey.
Nice video Jeremy. I have four Glencairn's and use them just for what they are designed for, doing tastings with friends who come over. I have two of the satin black Norlans, and use it just for show and sometimes when I want to watch the reflection of the color on the inside when I pour. Otherwise, everyday for me, just a variation of rocks glasses.
I have both the Norlan clear and black, alongside the Rauk Norlan too. Awesome
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! Sláinte!
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.
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.
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 👍
Bout to order myself a set of Norlans, thanks for the review!
I have the Norlan and Glencairn, like both but stay away from the Norlan because it just seems to get finger smudges easier and i feel like i will smash it when i am cleaning it as the glass is very thin
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.
That was a great way to show off the sponsor jeremy pretty funny man keep it up im sure allot of other liked it as much as i did 🤙🏼👏👏
Love the Tuath Irish Whiskey glass
I did enjoy the video, it gets you thinking. I routinely use a rocks glass, though when I have something super special I go for the glen carine.
Completely agree on the Glencairn glass! I just shopped for whiskey glasses and the Whiskey Tribe highly recommended it... but I couldn't get myself to pull the trigger because of how delicate it looks.
Brilliant review I totally agree with all you said good man🥃
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.
Great video as always, getting myself into whiskey with my best mate has been a absolute blast so far. Two things about these though, id say the glencairn can be boosted in looks when going for their cut version, that glass is hella expensive but defo worth the investment! And one negative for the norlan, isn’t it so that double walled glasses are not able to go into the dishwasher? It’s a little things but man convenience is key id say.
