A great new product has come out for the discerning whisky drinker. Apparently ice and top-notch whisky should never be mixed, but equally apparently whisky tastes far better cold because its warmed up in the mouth and hence the flavours develop or evolve rather the simply hitting you at once. So out of Scotland comes “real rocks”. Marketed by “Sippin on the Rocks Inc”, you can get highly polished granite cubes which you place in your freezer and then use to cool your drink. The granite of course comes from Scotland and is the same granite which the water used to make the whisky is naturally filtered by.
The cubes are packaged into a gift set containing 2 hand polished granite cubes, 2 crystal glasses and a solid walnut box to keep them in. The gift box retails for $US75 including shipping.
Weird idea maybe but what about these as a different idea for a guest gift for a whisky loving vip staying at your hotel or resort?
