Best decanters for your whisky

Jade Crasto
A whisky decanter which is usually made with glass or crystal has always been a status symbol. Most people assume that a decanter’s only purpose is to store whiskey. But in reality, this glass bottle does more than just store whisky. The whisky decanter allows oxygen to enter into it, releasing some of the aromatics that have been resting in it to improve the olfactory experience. While your whisky will not remain forever in a decanter, it can help maintain the life and quality of the alcohol contained within. If you’re ready to up your whisky game with decanters, here are some of the most luxurious ones available in the market.

Waterford has been producing crystal glassware since the late 1700s, and it lives up to its high standards. More than half of the decanter is covered with an eye-catching cut crystal pattern, and the short and broad cork adds a contemporary touch.
