The NEAT Travelers Tasting Tote for Two includes two Experience glasses, a lined, faux black leather carrying case with carrying handle and 2 D-rings for shoulder strap, and a microfiber towel for polishing the Experience glasses between samples. Experience glass retains exactly the same aroma and flavor characteristics of the Artisan. Expertly mouth-blown and hand-crafted by experienced blowpipe artists to create a rich and elegant feel. Experience has a heavier base along with a substantial, powerful weight and ‘heft” of elegant antique crystal without the addition of poisonous lead oxide. The Traveler’s Tasters Kit is designed for those who love the total and complete experience of drinking great, rare, collectable spirits at any tasting, anywhere.
NEAT is by far, the most popular spirits diagnostic glass among professional tasters. Over 40 major competition events use NEAT as their official judging and tasting glass. Extensive independent sensory testing proves beyond a doubt that NEAT delivers more intense aromas and avoids sharp, pungent, distracting odor of nose-numbing ethanol, common with tulip style glasses. Over 200,000 spirits judged, over 70,000 medals awarded. See the Beverage Journal paper on spirit glassware design.
Gender friendly, NEAT permits all sensitive noses to experience the true nature of any spirit distillate, enhancing drinking enjoyment while unmasking the true characteristics of the spirit. Great for all spirits over 40% ABV, and a must-have for the cask spirits drinker. NEAT raises the spirits quality bar and exposes distillers who hide poor distillation behind high ethanol. Many distillers use NEAT to make head and tail cuts, so they know exactly what is in their spirit. As a taster, you can get much closer to what the distillers’ intent was with NEAT glassware.
