Lowball / Rocks / Old Fashioned Glasses

[PourMeADram]

I generally prefer drinking my single malts over a large chunk of ice in a rocks glass. I was wondering if you all had any suggestions on a good glass? Is that a common question or am I thinking too much?

I also drink bourbon, and got some free glasses in a gift set with Gentleman Jack... I really really like these glasses... they are weighty with a thick bottom, and just feel nice. I would just buy them, but, if there's anything better, I would like to hear about them!

I already have whisky glasses I use to put a new single malt through my naive paces.... these are to be just enjoying while sitting in my big chair watching re-runs of Robot Chicken or Star Wars movies.

Cheers
