There's a hole in my cup

Some people consider drinking to be quite elegant.  They get dressed up, hold parties, buy expensive liquor and serve drinks with fancy glasses.  Well until now you could not stack your decanter and glasses into a stylish centerpiece.

Its called an Art of Degustation drinking set.  Designed for Ballantine's by Kacper Hamilton, scotch and whiskey drinking will never be the same.

The glasses have a hole in the center, same as the decanter, so they can be stacked on a silver tray with a long spindle attached.  When it comes to serving the drink, chilled metal inserts are used to plug the hole and keep your beverage pleasantly chilled.


This drinking set is a cool mixture of design and ingenuity.  What a space saver!  I especially like that the bottom of the glass is tinted so you do not have to fill the glasses in order for them to be decorative.  Not sure how the tray would look without the decanter and glasses on it though...
