JAMES BENTLEY JB Whiskey Glasses, Set of 2 + 2 Slow-Melting Ice Ball Molds | Hand-blown insulated 6oz double-wall borosilicate glass, bourbon, keeps drinks cold longer, enhances aroma, no coaster needed

We bought these after doing a lot of research as to finding the right whiskey glass to fit our needs. We wanted something that would allow a higher proof whiskey to breath but regardless of where it was bottled allow us to nose the profile. This glass allows us to get more than ethanol on nosing a high proof profile. Lower proofs work well in this too. This glass fits a ball of ice from either the Samsung fridge or from the included ice molds if you like it “on the rocks”. The air between the whiskey vessel and where you hold it creates an insulation that will prevent your hand from heating the whiskey too quickly. There is a line from where this is made, possibly using a mold, but it is glass. The dishes are solid glass and yes they will break. I dropped one in the sink and was sad that it broke.

I like to drink whiskey neat, or sometimes with a few rocks. I own and love my Norlan whiskey glasses, which are hand-blown, double walled glasses designed for drinking whiskey neat. The problem with them is that they are very, very fragile, and also very expensive at $48 a pair. These are almost the same...but the glass appears to me to be slightly thicker (and therefore they are more durable) and they come with a pair of BPA-free ice-ball molds which are great for making a single nice ball of ice for hot days when you want to sip on cold whiskey instead of neat. They have a very pretty twist blown into the outer glass, which I find aesthetically pleasing and comfortable to hold. Plus, these represent a better value for your money. This is my new favorite whiskey glass. The packaging is also very nice, which makes for a good gift. I like the Norlan packaging a bit better from a gift standpoint, but these are a better product in my opinion.

I've had these glasses for a few weeks now and have used them a number of times. I spent a great deal of time searching for glasses that would be good for "on the rocks". Most offerings were too large, being in the 12 oz range. I wanted something no more than 8 oz. I also wanted glasses with plenty of weight to them. Leaded crystal usually provides the weight, but they are not common any more. After comparing many different options and reading all the reviews I could find, I decided to give these a try. They are slightly taller than I wanted, but once I had them in hand, I didn't really notice. These are very heavy glasses, which feels good for the type of drink it is designed for. Design wise, these are 5 star. The twisted sides and the thick rounded base are very attractive. The included custom ice cube maker is a bit over the top and will likely get little or no use. The glasses, on the other hand, will get regular use. If you are looking for a stylish, heavy drink glass for straight spirits and ice, these are highly recommended.

I am actually drinking from one of theses right now. I like the look, I like the feel, I've given them as gifts, but I have to tell you, they are pretty fragile. I had one break, on the inside, when I was dropping ice cubes into the glass. The ice poked a hole in the the inside and my good bourbon drained into the space between the inside and outside. Another one broke when I accidentally bumped it against the sink when I was washing it. On the other hand, they are not too expensive and come with a couple of ice ball forms, so all in all, not too bad a deal but you have to be very careful when using them.

I really like these glasses. They're lightweight (in a good way) and a pleasure to drink from. I like their feel and heft. The ridges on the bottom do enhance aroma when drinking neat. I have a set of Norlan as well (a gift) and they _are_ quite nice. However, when I looked into getting more, I thought these were a better value and worth trying. I'm not disappointed. There's a sweet spot for drinkware where the vessel does enhance the experience but they aren't so expensive that you cry when they break. These are solidly in that sweet spot. BTW, there was a snag with my initial order but the company was beyond excellent in resolving it. After I ordered the glasses, they sent me a note that had tips on removing the ice molds from the glasses and mentioned that some older stock had a problem with leaking ice molds and that Amazon might still have some of the old stock in inventory. Sure enough, the ice molds leaked and the company immediately made good on that. The hallmark of a great company isn't that nothing ever goes wrong, it's how they handle it when something does. Full marks in this case.

Really looked forward to using these. Upon arrival i hand cleaned them then dried. Reason for 2 stars and not 5 is because my second glass does not sit on a surface flush. It tends to wobble. Same goes for the rim on the glass where you would drink from. Its as if it warped. I understand that these are handmade, but something can be done before they leave the factory. Overall, i love the concept and design and ice mold, however having one glass that's presentable is embarrassing to say the least. I figured for the price i would have two glasses that could be used for all occasions, but that's not the case. Good thing it was only a gift for myself. If both glasses were like the one i would use personally, easily it would have been 5 stars! UPDATE 6/5/19. Customer service from James Bently reached out and made things more than right. Customer service from this company is top notch. 10 stars if possible! Do not hesitate to do business with them. As for the new pieces, overall they could be better but they're much better than the original set I recieved and Im fully satisfied with my order and this company. I would HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone especially when doing business with this company. Changed rating from a 2 to a 5 easily. Thanks!

I really like these glasses. They're heavyweight in a good way, and a pleasure to drink from. I like their feel and heft. The shape, kind of like glencairn glass, when you swirl the whiskey it actually enhance the aroma when drinking neat.... I looked into getting other more expensive whsieky glasses but these are way better and seem like heavy duty.. They even come with a free matching ice mold tray which is great idea, I thought these were a better value and worth trying. I'm impressed.. . There's a sweet spot for old fashioned scotch drinkware where the vessel does enhance the experience but they aren't so expensive that you cry when they break. These are solidly in that sweet spot. One more thing.. there was a snag with my initial order but the company was beyond excellent in resolving it, they contacted me directly to make things right... .. The hallmark of a great company isn't that nothing ever goes wrong, it's how they handle it when something does. Full marks in this case. Higly recommended and a great Christmas gift present or birthday gift.. Perfect for a man's cave.. Cheers

I had to give a lower score for durability because these are double-walled Whiskey glasses. They are ot designed to be durable but unlike other whiskey glass manufactures you can ut ice in these ones. Some of their competitors' glasses will break if you drop a cube of ice in them. SO by comparison, they are durable. I bought these as a gift for a friend. The box they come in is nice looking, they are packed well and come with two ice ball molds, one for each glass. They look great. I highly recommend this set over some of the more expensive competitors. They look just as good, are less expensive and as I mentioned before you can put ice in them if you prefer your whiskey cold like I do.

Très beaux verres, très originaux. Excellente qualité, beau cadeau à faire.

I bought these as a gift, I was really pleased when opening them as the glasses were as described, double walled, just the right size and a nice shape which is easy to hold. I was happy to give these as a present and knew they would be liked, even the box they were in was sturdy and well designed

Los pedí para regalar y dieron del agrado total

Très bonne qualité, les verres sont très légers et pratiques.

Menudo timo los vasos. El tamaño es ridículo, más bien para café si antes no se me derrite porque de cristal nada, son de plasticucho, no pesan nada. Vamos 22 euros por 2 vasos de plástico. Vaya estafa. Muy decepcionado.
