When I first received these glasses, one of them had a flaw. [...] I had been looking for this type of glass for quite some time. My choices up to now were a brandy snifter or a rocks glass (it is, of course, a mortal sin to pour a single malt over a bunch of ice). I'm still not sold on the idea of having a different glass for each wine varietal (I basically have red and white wine glasses), but having these glasses was necessary to properly enjoy single malt scotch.
