Monkey Shoulder

Description

In early 1992, a panel of Scotch whisky experts convened at Riedel's headquarters in Austria to test a range of nineteen different glass shapes. On the basis of this first selection, Georg Riedel undertook further research with the help of master distillers in Scotland. This research resulted in a glass that is an elongated thistle shape on a truncated stem.

The design of the Vinum Single Malt Whisky glass incorporates a small, slightly out turned lip which directs the spirit onto the tip of the tongue, where sweetness is perceived, and serves to emphasise the elegant creaminess of top quality single malt whisky.

VINUM is executed in lead crystal, machine blown in Bavaria, Germany.
