    I thought that it was Glencairn Copita, but actually it looks kinda different.. And also the tulip-shaped one with wide bottom.. Anybody..?

    It is an individual hand crafted designed by Horst Luening. To see all the details watch this video

    Unfortunately we have not found any importers, yet.

    What about this glass? It looks different than the one featured in the video.

    Yes it's true. When I made the production video, the final design has not been confirmed. So the glass in the production video is not the final one we sell in Germany right now.
    The Prototype had more of a belly. The idea was to get more surface area to smell. So far so good. But the Air convection was seriously effected by that. This means the smell was in the glass and at high intensity, but you could not sniff it out.

    there should be some scientific or industrial software that can model surface diffusion and the effect of the shape of containers.

    I'm currently getting a bit into blender. Maybe I can display the particle flow at some point.

    @SAQQARA We have now switched to machine manufacturing (still crystal glass). In the moment we are selecting importers from around the world.

    @Holm Yes, we shipped the first batch of glasses into the US (OR) and everything worked fine. Now we have established a first contact with a potential reseller. We'll will spread the news via newsletter and video as soon as sales become possible.

    @horst_s Hello Mr. Luening. I'm a huge fan of your work. You truly made me enjoy whisky a whole lot more! 


    I was interested in ordering one of your tulip glasses. Can they be shipped to the US yet? I live in North Carolina. If so, where do we order the glasses?
