Best glass for scotch?

Every Christmas I get my grandfather a nice bottle of single malt. His birthday is coming up and I want to get him a really special glass to enjoy his scotch in. I have no idea what types of classy glasses are available. Does anyone out there have any recommendations?

Here is one from celtic malts http://www.celticmalts.com/shop/item.asp?itemid=1
My dad has a few of these and they're really nice. Celtic malts has a whiskies of the world expo in San Francisco every year and I'm looking forward to actually going this year.

My wife did a bunch of research on Scotch glasses and ordered some for my birthday. They haven't arrived yet but when I get home I'll find out which ones she got.

Re: Best glass for scotch?

Some use a double old fashioned glass...

Another option are these "single malt" glasses.

Nice gesture!

Re: Best glass for scotch?

I prefer a nice Mikasa crystal rock glass with one big ice cube. Bed, Bath & Beyond has both the glasses and ice cube mold. Just go there with your wife or girlfriend to protect your manlyness!!!

I use old fashioned glasses too. I am not a big fan of scotch glasses.

Re: Best glass for scotch?

if you send me the scotch I will, for purposes of science, try it with several different types and let you know.

Re: Best glass for scotch?

Awesome! Thanks gorillas.

I'd love to be able to find an ice mold for those big square cubes. I think if I have to go to BB&B I may .

I'd have to say that I'm old school too when I drink scotch. A good old fashioned rocks glass works for me. Anchor Hocking makes some good ones. My
