The Norlan Whisky Glass is the perfect synthesis of a tumbler and a nosing glass. The design allows for aeration through specially-developed protrusion forms inside the glass, developed through studying bio-mimicry. When the whisky is swirled around in the glass, it forms a standing wave shape, which increases the surface to air ratio and rate of oxidization, which brings out the flavor and aroma of your favorite brand like no other glass. The other performance feature is the shape of the inner walls, which close as they rise and then flare out again at the top so as not to hit your nose. The height and diameter of the smallest aperture focuses the aromatics to the nose while simultaneously diffusing the ethanol away from the face, fantastically improving the taste of your whisky. Each double-walled glass is made with a glass blowing technique that uses two separate molds: one for the inner wall, and one for the outer wall. When the inner and outer glass walls are prepared, the rims are reheated and the inner glass is inserted, at which time the rims are sealed. This creates a hollow body glass with dramatically different inside shape to outside shape.
