Zwiesel whisky nosing glass set 2 pcs, 294 ml each, model SH-122090

Set of two Zwiesel whisky nosing glasses, each with a 294 ml capacity, model SH-122090. These stemmed glasses are shaped to concentrate whisky aromas and support sensory evaluation during nosing and tasting. Made by ZWIESEL for use in home tastings, bars and professional sampling environments, the set is intended to help identify and appreciate whisky characteristics with clarity.

Advantages

The Zwiesel whisky nosing glass set combines a tulip-shaped bowl with a narrow rim to direct volatile aromas toward the nose while preserving the whisky’s temperature on the stem. Each glass offers a 294 ml volume that is adequate for standard tasting pours without excessive headspace loss. The stemmed design isolates the hand from the bowl to avoid warming the spirit, and the glass geometry improves aroma concentration for more accurate sensory assessment.

Suitable for

• Home whisky tasting and collecting
• Bars and restaurants conducting tastings or premium pours
• Professional sampling in distilleries or tasting panels
• Education and sensory training for whisky appreciation

How to use

Pour a standard tasting amount into the glass, typically 25–40 ml, allowing room for aromas to develop in the bowl. Hold the glass by the stem to avoid altering the liquid temperature, then bring the rim to the nose and inhale gently to assess the aroma profile. Swirl lightly if needed to release additional volatile compounds, then taste in small sips while noting flavor evolution and mouthfeel. After use, rinse with warm water and allow to air dry or dry with a lint-free cloth to maintain clarity.

Usage recommendations

Store the glasses upright in a dust-free cabinet and avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. For optimal sensory evaluation, use at room temperature and ensure glasses are free of residual odors by rinsing with warm water before tastings.
