DH is a Bourbon / Scotch Drinker - Recommend Glasses to drink in for his Bday

Anonymous
What glasses should I get him? He drinks it with one of those big ice cubes and I know he'd love special glasses.
Anonymous
Low ball glasses of the style he prefers.

Interested in specific brands - thanks!

We can't give you specific brands because we don't know what styles he likes. It is a glass. The type that should be used are low ball glasses. Does he like simple, ornate, clean lines? You know that better than we do!

Waterford Double Old Fashioned


I think these are hideous.

Waterford Double Old Fashioned


I was going to suggest those as well. Classics. I have them and they are nice because they feel substantial.

Those are super spendy. You can get very nice glasses at much lower cost.

These are similar in style:

But just go browse online for "old-fashioned" glasses (e.g. in Macy's)--you'll see a lot of styles.

Oh--but if you are buying for the status brand, go for the Waterfords.

Why not buy him a good bottle of scotch instead?

+1 waterford is great. They have a few different styles (mine are very similar from Bloomingdales) and as a bourbon drinker myself, weight of the glass is important and isn't found in the less "spendy" brands (can we please retire that word, already?)

I love waterford at times, but that kind of frilly crap is annoying. Modern is the way to go in my opinion. But maybe your husband is 70 or lives in the exurbs. What do I know?

Any, preferably clean, glass will do.

No. No we cannot. Sorry.
