Nick & Nora
Small stemmed bowl with a tulip lip. It holds aroma better than a coupe, which makes it the usual pick for stirred, spirit-forward drinks.
Stemmed, served up. No ice, so nearly the whole glass is liquid.
Drinks served in this glass
WhiskeyIntermediate
Caol Ila Cosmo
Smoky single malt in place of the vodka. A Cosmo turns out to be far more open to reinterpretation than it looks.
WhiskeyAdvanced
Earl of Seville
A multilayered drink with an emphasis on subtle citrus touches.
RumIntermediate
Hummingbird-Cusin
Cinnamon, star anise, and amaranth steeped in warm water, then cachaca. Served hot.
WhiskeyBeginner
Tipperary
Irish whiskey and green Chartreuse, which sounds unlikely until you taste it.
GinBeginner
The Cosmonaut
Gin, lemon and a heaped bar spoon of raspberry jam.
WhiskeyWEB CELEBIntermediate
Ancient Luminary
Overproof rye layered with plum and cardamom bitters, Chinese five-spice syrup, spiced pear liqueur and a little dry vermouth, stirred and served small with a star anise pod at the side.
