The Glencairn Copita Glass is a relatively small tulip bowled glass used by distillers and Master Blenders to nose their whiskies. The tulip shape of the bowl allows the liquid to be swirled sufficiently prior to nosing and the small opening retains the alcohol vapours and concentrates the nose. Once the whisky has been poured it is a great idea to seal the glass with the tasting cap, then leave for a few minutes to let it stand and allow the aromas to intertwine with the oxygen and develop sufficiently. The perfect nose!
