On the Rocks Drink Chillers have won favor with Scotch purists and nature lovers. Crafted with care from stones collected from New England beaches, On the Rocks is a set of six granite drink chillers. They perfectly chill fine spirits.
Ice is often added to a drink to rapidly drop its temperature, but in the case of fine spirits, too much cold closes down the flavors. Ice cubes can also change the taste and odor of a drink as they melt and dilute the spirit.
On The Rocks chills whiskies and other fine liquors to their ideal drinking temperature (about 59°F,) without adding unwanted taste or diluting the drink. The solid granite stays cold, ensuring a smooth and leisurely drinking experience.
For these reasons, Whiskey connoisseurs prefer On The Rocks over ice. Whisky specialist, Marc Reynier, from the Bruichladdich distillery in Scotland points out; “We go to lengths to provide hand-selected, natural whisky, unadulterated by additives, sweeteners or colorings only for the drinker to go and add chlorine and fluoride,” chemicals commonly found in frozen tap water.
The set of six handcrafted chillers is presented in a hardwood tray for freezing and serving, and because no two stones are alike, your glass is easy to identify when sipping with company. On The Rocks is the perfect gift for all lovers of fine spirits.
The stones are gathered from private rivers and beaches, with permission. When a stone is collected, we want to make sure there will always be a replacement for future gatherers. So for each one harvested, a new stone (purchased from a quarry) is planted in the water. Over the years, the water tumbles the rough ‘seed’ into a smooth, rounded stone.
What makes On the Rocks better than ice cubes?
-Ice robs flavors by deep freezing fine spirits. On the Rocks is ideal for sipping Scotch and all high-quality whiskeys and spirits in small servings at the perfect temperature.
-One stone is usually all that's needed for the ideal chill without closing down the flavors.
-Since granite is exceptionally dense and scratchproof, it holds the cold extremely well and adds no impurities to your drink
-The round shape and hand-eased edges allow the stones to swirl smoothly around the glass.
To Use:
