Glencairn Crystal, Ltd. in Scotland created these glasses for Whiskey (primarily Scotch) in 2001.
It’s based on traditional nosing glasses that were used for tasting in distilleries all over Scotland.
The slight curve in at the top holds and focuses the aromas of the drink. This helps with the nose as well as the taste.
While origianlly intended for Whiskey and Scotch, we have found this glass to be EXCELLENT for a wide variety of spirits

This is a large variety of a glencairn
It holds about 10 oz if filled to the top (as for beer)
For neat spirit pours or samples, about 2 oz reaches the widest part of the bulb
We are not completely clear on the history of this glass.
We bought this as Sur La Table marketed as a whiskey glass
Although this was marketed as a whiskey glass, we would recommend this glass for beer as well

This glass is about 3.5 inches tall
Holds 3 oz of liquid
The tulip shape helps to concentrate the aroma and the flavor
Sort of a miniature glencairn, this glass is designed after the Perfect Whisky Glass.
