Tatsumaki Whiskey Glass

In Japan, the tornado—tatsumaki—is both revered and feared: a fleeting spiral of raw power, impossible to tame, beautiful to witness from a distance. It is this duality that inspired the glass you see before you. Not merely a vessel, but a meditation on impermanence and intensity, captured in crystal.

What sets the Tatsumaki apart

Premium crystal composition: Unlike standard soda-lime glass, the Tatsumaki is crafted from lead-free crystal with higher clarity and light refraction. The result is a glass that showcases the color and viscosity of your pour with exceptional brilliance—letting you properly assess the whiskey before it ever reaches your lips.

Geometry with purpose: The twisted contours aren't purely aesthetic. The irregular surface increases the liquid's contact with air as you swirl, gently opening up the nose and releasing subtle aromatics that a straight-walled tumbler would keep muted. For complex single malts or high-proof bourbons, this makes a noticeable difference.

Weighted for intention: The Tatsumaki carries a satisfying heft—substantial enough to feel considered in hand, yet balanced for comfortable, unhurried sipping. The sculpted grip naturally guides your hold, keeping warmth from your palm away from the spirit.

Built to endure: Crystal glass offers superior durability and scratch resistance compared to conventional glassware. Like the Japanese principle of ichigo ichie—one time, one meeting—each pour in the Tatsumaki is meant to be savored fully. With proper care, this glass will witness many such moments.
