Imagine: you pour a glass of single malt, bring it to your nose and the aromas meet you at exactly the right moment. No sharp alcohol overpowering everything, but a full, deep scent that tells the story of the whisky. That is no coincidence - that is the result of the right glass. The Schott Zwiesel Whisky Glasses Bar Special - Stemmed Nosing Glass are made for exactly that: tasting whisky the way it should be tasted, at home, with the confidence of a professional.
Tasting Like a Bartender - Right at Your Own Table
The Bar Special series (formerly Classico) from Schott Zwiesel is no chance project. These glasses are used worldwide by bartenders who demand a lot from their glassware. The reason? They combine function with style, and they get through the toughest evenings without looking the slightest bit worse for it. With this set of 4, you literally bring the bar into your home.
- Classic nosing design - The rounded bowl concentrates the aromas, while the narrower opening tempers the alcohol vapours. So you really smell the whisky, not just the alcohol
- Tritan crystal glass - Crystal clear without lead, more scratch-resistant and impact-resistant than ordinary glass. Strong enough for everyday use, beautiful enough for special moments
- Dishwasher safe - Still sparkling clear after hundreds of washes. Simply into the dishwasher, no fuss
- Set of 4 - Ideal for a whisky evening with friends, a tasting at home or simply for yourself and a good dram
- Stable and sturdy - Made to stand upright on the table even after a long evening. The base provides balance, the glass provides confidence
Why This Glass Makes the Difference When Tasting
The nosing glass is not an ordinary tumbler, and that is exactly the point. The rounded bowl of this Bar Special glass captures the complex aromas of the whisky and directs them, concentrated, towards your nose. Meanwhile, the narrower opening makes the alcohol fade into the background. The result: you taste the cask ageing, the fruity notes, the smokiness - everything the distiller intended you to experience. This is enjoying whisky the way it is meant to be enjoyed.
Schott Zwiesel itself recommends this glass for American whisky, Cognac, Armagnac, brandy, malt whisky and bitters. A nice range - this glass suits more than just your favourite single malt. It is the all-rounder of the spirits cabinet, a stemmed glass 17.5 cm tall with a capacity of 218 ml.
Tritan Crystal Glass: the Smart Choice for Home
Crystal glass may sound like something you have to keep carefully behind a glass door. Tritan crystal glass from Schott Zwiesel is expressly not that. This material was developed to be used - really used. It is as brilliantly clear as traditional lead crystal, but without the lead and without the fragility. Scratch-resistant, impact-resistant and simply dishwasher safe. Not once, not ten times - after hundreds of washes it stays crystal clear and sparkling.
That is what quality means at Cookinglife: products that prove themselves in practice. Not making an impression once and then fading, but lasting year after year. The Bar Special glasses from Schott Zwiesel are proof of that.
The Perfect Atmosphere for a Whisky Evening
There is something about drinking whisky from the right glass that turns an ordinary evening into something special. The scent rising up, the weight of the glass in your hand, the colour of the drink in the crystal-clear glass - these are small details that together create a memory. Whether you are tasting with friends, opening a bottle for a special moment or simply ending the day with a glass by the window: this glass makes that moment complete.
Pour a good bourbon, an Armagnac after dinner or a robust malt whisky from an island distillery. This glass does justice to whatever you pour into it. And after the sharing and the enjoying? Simply into the dishwasher.
💡 Cookinglife Tip: After pouring, let the whisky rest in the glass for 1 to 2 minutes before you nose it. The aromas open up in the rounded bowl and you experience the full complexity of the drink - exactly as the maker intended.
