Glencairn glass testing evaluates the glass's ability to enhance whisky tasting. It involves examining the glass's clarity, shape, and how well it captures and concentrates aromas. Testers assess if the glass allows for aroma development, ease of swirling, and comfortable handling. The goal is to ensure the glass improves the sensory experience by directing scents to the nose and showcasing the whisky's color and texture effectively. This process helps confirm the glass's quality and suitability for appreciating fine spirits.
