Bonus: You’ll be able to protect your whiskey stash during gatherings. A whiskey decanter allows you to fill the decanter before everyone arrives. As far as your guests know, that’s all there is. So this keeps those thirsty folks at bay. You can literally watch as the whiskey leaves the vessel. They’ll understand when it’s time to slow down.

2. Allows For Blind Tastings

This is one of our favorite decanter perks. Instead of everyone obsessing over the latest and greatest bottles, they’ll focus on the liquor itself. They won’t be impressed by big brands and labels. And you can actually share some lower-priced (but still outstanding) whiskey. No one has to know! It’s better this way. Focus on what’s important. The smell, taste, and full experience of whiskey.

Also, you’re probably going to need a personalized bar tray. Just saying. As you serve your guests, this adds a nice touch. Our decanters are super easy to clean, too.

Safety is Number One

whiskey decanters sound better, but are they actually? Well, the short answer is no. But what is the best decanter type? Borosilicate glass. The difference between this type of glass and crystal is one simple thing, lead. Crystal contains lead, which can infuse with your spirits and make your spirits unfit for consumption. Borosilicate glass does not have lead in it, making it much safer for storing your spirits. Which is why we here at Prestige Haus make it a point to use only borosilicate glass in our products.
