Fantastic edition to my collection of glencarin’s when I saw they released a new glass this Copia glass - I’m assuming it was a standard before the Glencarin was invented; it saod what little reading a Sherry glass originally I’d imagine it’s used in concertu woth other types of glasses the copita is to my surprise, adds a different dimensions
to my neat drinking experiences esp I’m a cask strength/barrel proof. You can’t put it on it’s side to tell you about your neat pour (spills: over poured - | doesn’t then its a neat or 1.75 fl oz pour ) standard jigger size (thank ya Rex n Fam @ Crowded Barrel / the magnificent bastids in the Whisk(e)y Tribe gang!)
The glass is ALOT more delicate and not as thick as the normal Glencarin... I don’t want to say I enjoy the Copita more maybe than the Glencarin itself atm. esp the “jam jar liz” but its not: its actual Glencarin glassware made just for this copita and that’s it. In my experience its a toss up if the “jam jar lids” fit or not. GLENCARIN MAKE A LID LIKE THIS FOR OG GLENCARIN GLASS please, thank you ahah. It have the glass embedded logo and copita glass coming in a velvety case in shipping with the gold shiny Glencarin logo (with the stylized G) I will be using both of these and anything Glencarin puts out OFFICIALLY, looking at you glass water jug!
Its easy to nose can put my whole nose in the glass no hatsh ethanol layer, it reveals slight differences in them and things in your whiskey you might not find with the original glass but I’d say for people who really like whiskey exploration, teasing out flavors with drops of water: then its a good addition and worth the money? yes but only of your really a neat or straight whiskey lover because I love the taste and also wish Ice Spheres didn’t cool (colder = less taste) and water down your liquor... but I don’t use em anymore as not many whiskeys can stand up to ice... even store select cask strength Balcones Texas Single Malt doesn’t so I dunno what will! Thai Balcones note is so dark that it goes way beyond bourbon to darker areas... love it! Balcones is so UGH in your reference that defined the new category of Texas Whiskey but Garrison Brothers say Bourbon without the bite... but i like the bite and that peated tingly feel liquor massage for your throat in my peated, the heat and flavor of 135-6 proof cask strength which you get ised fl quicker than you’d think.
GREAT glass for whiskey lovers!
