Whiskey Copita Glasses

Seth Brundle · 2017-03-14 15:36:52

Is there anywhere in Ireland that sells nice whiskey glasses similar to either the traditional copita or the Glencairn type? (http://www.glencairnwhiskyglass.com/)

You get (really small) one's if you do the Tour in the Irish Whiskey Museum (have two). But haven't a notion of where to buy... wait, you could check their gift shop?

Also, boards does a messy thing when putting links in between brackets. Seems to include the last bracket in the URL, just as a heads up.

Personally, I wouldn't buy glassware online. But that's a really good deal!

EUR13.78 on amazon.de (+3.50 for picking it up from your local post office when using Address Pal).

They have Glencairns in the Irish Whiskey Museum. I bought a colleague one for secret santa a while back.

I got a set of three with a flight board and the scent lids from scotland recently ebay I used, great quality one Glencairn,
I can find the link if you're interested, well packaged extra wrapped inside the oringal boxes with bubble etc.

Had whiskey in them recently loved the scent lids

Thanks.
The reason I want an actual shop to rather than buy online is that I'd like to try it on. I'm buying for me and want something I'm comfortable using.
If I'm drinking a perfect whiskey, I want the perfect glass!

There might have been contents of another glass involved when I bought it

Tasting glasses do not make for most people's normal drinking experience. I use mine to taste but never for normal dribkibg, even on my 100 quid plus stuff
