Know before you buy
Unlike ice, these stones do not melt, which ensures your whiskey remains at its original strength and flavor profile without dilution. They provide a gentle chill rather than an icy temperature, which is ideal for opening up the complex notes of premium spirits.
No, the fine crystal glass is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing the tumbler with mild soap and warm water to maintain the clarity and integrity of the crystal.
The set includes a curated selection of R.O.C.K.S. whiskey chilling stones designed to be used in tandem with the Soleil glass for a single serving.
The stones are designed with smooth, rounded edges specifically to prevent scratching or damaging the fine crystal. However, we recommend placing them gently into the glass rather than dropping them to ensure the longevity of the crystal base.
The Soleil glass is specifically engineered to facilitate swirling, which helps aerate the spirit. This process releases the whiskey's aromatic compounds, allowing you to fully experience the nose before taking a sip.
