This is a whisky glass, for whisky. You could use it for other things, maybe a fine bourbon (which technically is whisky), or some tequila? It's even got a great quote by the late, great Ernest Hemingway that'll remind why it's a bad idea to run your mouth when you've had a few too many. But is there really such a thing as too many whiskies?
