What determines the type of glass to use with whiskey depends on the individual's mood and intentions. There are some drinkers who like to imbibe in a large amount in a short time so they may use a shot glass, while others savour the flavour and sip it slowly.

Adding ice cubes to this type of glass is challenging because of the smaller opening.
