A wooden whiskey glass. It sounds crazy. What kind of insubordinate reprobate whiskey fiend would pour their cherished spirit into a cup made from a tree? Weirdoes! Except, ok, just calm down, Eugene, and listen up. Your whiskey came from a barrel. Barrels are made out of wood. They are charred on the inside. That’s where all the flavor comes from (well, ok, besides from the corn and the wheat and the barley . . .) Sipping your whiskey from a tumbler made of wood is actually pretty smart. And good. And let me tell you something.
The Whiskey Grail is the wooden whiskey glass you want right now.
We did a podcast with Adam Tsang, the man behind a couple of damn fine restaurants in Statesboro, Ga., and the maniacal mind behind the Whiskey Grail. We got our hands on their first iteration, the Mash Bill, and they were great. So let us now go deep on the Whiskey Grail wooden whiskey glass.
Yes, the wooden whiskey glass is wood
I thought this would be obvious, but to be clear: the whiskey tumblers made by the Whiskey Grail are hand-crafted from wood. Craftsman Jim Walker uses the same white oak most whiskey barrels are made from.
Yes, they are charred.
Just like a whiskey barrel. The char is perfect across all the interior surfaces of this wooden whiskey glass.
Yeah, but do they leak?
Every whiskey grail is meticulously leak-tested.
Ok, but how do I clean it?
Rinse it out, you weirdo. Don’t run it through a dishwasher like some kind of idiot. Take your wooden whiskey glass to the sink and use warm water and a clean rag and rinse the insides and outsides thoroughly and you are good to go.
Fine, but can I get my logo or my name engraved on mine?
Oh, hell yes. Check out our branded Whiskey Grail and tell me it’s not the most beautiful wooden whiskey glass you’ve ever seen!
Only $34.99 and worth every penny.
