New glassware perfects the enjoyment of fine whisky
Announcement posted by Villeroy & Boch 09 Dec 2010
Whether drinking a single malt, blended scotch or bourbon, Villeroy & Boch has created the perfectly matched glassware to bring maximum enjoyment.
The two premium lines, Scotch Whisky and American Bar, take into account the different characters of European and American whiskies and the varying rituals involved in their enjoyment. Each clear, crystal glass is hand-blown and carefully crafted to ensure the whisky’s features can be appreciated prior to drinking.
The Scotch Whisky range is intended for particularly fine whiskies, incorporating glasses and carafes with a classic design, in a variety of shapes and sizes. For single malts and grains, a glass with a wide belly and narrow mouth ensures that the full whisky aroma unfolds perfectly. For blended scotch, a straight, cylindrical shape has been developed to concentrate the various aromas of the drink.
The more modern American Bar range includes strikingly tall shapes that flair all the way out to the mouth, allowing ice cubes to be easily added for long drinks and cocktails. The glassware is complemented with a matching ice bucket - an ideal gift for the whisky lover.
Villeroy & Boch’s American Bar and Scotch Whisky ranges are available from selected department stores and The House of Villeroy & Boch, Chatswood (NSW) and Glenside (SA). They can also be purchased online from Villeroy & Boch’s e-Shop: http://eshop.villeroy-boch.com/au/. RRP from $36.95.
