What Glass Do You Use?
Posted: Sun Apr 21, 2013 7:42 pmI have tried many glasses when it comes to sipping bourbon, but I find the best to be the Glencairn glass. That's just my opinion. What glass do you use to sip your bourbon?

Posted: Wed Apr 24, 2013 4:06 pmMy only problem with the copita is that as it gets low in the liquid gold it feels like I have to tip it upside down to try to get the last little bit out. Also as a disclaimer the first time I used one of these I basically dumped a small remaining amount on my face as I titled back in an effort to drink the final contents 
. I have had positive experiences since and the nose is a very close second to the Glencairn IMO
