Whisky stone is a kind of high-grade wine set used in bars and homes. It was originally designed to drink iced whisky. Because ice will melt and dilute the taste of wine, people use “ice tartar” instead of ice. Ice wine stone is made of saponite, talc, obsidian, granite, marble and other pure natural ingredients. Some people may say that it is not clean and safe, but these ingredients are pure natural, pollution-free and safe ingredients. They will not react with wine and drinks, so they can be used safely.
According to the material, it can be divided into two categories
1) Steady steel whiskey stone is characterized by fast heat conduction but small specific heat capacity. So it can reduce the temperature as quickly as possible, but it may need to put a few more pieces. Metal molecules are relatively active. Stainless steel can get rid of the fishy smell of seafood. I don’t know if it will destroy the taste of single malt whisky with marine flavor such as old Pulteney.
2) Natural stone whiskey stone . This kind of stone is washed clean and polished. Put it in the refrigerator. When you take it out again, it’s as cold as soaking in a stream. When you drink, it has a taste of nature.
Besides whiskey, red wine, other spirits, cocktails and even drinks and herbal teas can be placed in the ice wine stone. No change in concentration, no dilution at the same time bring better taste. The most important thing is that the number of times it is used is unlimited!
Why not use ordinary ice at home
Because household ice is usually not frozen for enough time, plus the square section, it will melt very quickly in the cup. And we often like to savor a glass of whisky, or drink and talk with friends. If you don’t drink fast enough, the ice will soon melt into water and dilute the wine. No matter how strong and mellow the single malt whisky is, it will become tasteless.
