The 12 Days of Dappered: Day 1 – Whisky Stones

Teroforma Whisky Stones – $21.45 | Maker’s 46 – $31.99

It’ll be here before you know it.  So if you’re in need of a few ideas on what to give or even put on your own list this year, this is the place to be for the next couple weeks.  Our annual 12 Days of Dappered covers one item each week-day between now and December 20th.  That’ll leave some time for shipping if you’re the last minute type.  All will be reasonably affordable.  See the growing archive here.

For those that prefer to slowly sip their liquor, these let you do that without watering down the drink.  A big ice cube will melt slower, but these won’t melt at all.  Now, they won’t make your drink freezing cold, but if you like the change in taste that comes with lowering the temperature of your bourbon, scotch, or sipping rum, they should do the trick.

That and they look pretty friggin’ cool.

Comes with nine stones “Milled in Vermont by the oldest soapstone workshop in the US.”  Stones ship free at $25 so consider picking up a Glencairn glass.

As for the Maker’s 46, some haven’t taken to it.  Some think it’s a huge improvement (I’m one.)  Still has the sweetness of Maker’s with more flavors and an easy creaminess.  Might be right for someone stuck in a booze rut.
