There is no whisky in this one. It is the jug you pour the few drops of water into the whisky from — the kind that stood on the bar back when every distillery had its own made.

Please note: This is a vintage whisky jug that has been used and may therefore show wear.

The expert's description

The Glenkinchie whisky jug is a ceramic water jug carrying the distillery name, made for adding water to whisky.

These jugs were originally made as bar equipment and handed out to pubs and whisky bars. They are small on purpose, because it does not take much water, and most have a spout that can dose a few drops at a time.

This one is used and carries its age with it. It still works as it should, and gets used as much for display on a shelf as beside the bottle.

Specifications

Name: Glenkinchie Whisky Jug Water Jug
Brand: Glenkinchie
Type: Ceramic water jug
Use: For adding water to whisky
Condition: Vintage, used, may show wear

How to use the jug

Fill the jug with cold water and pour a few drops into the whisky at a time. Taste between each addition — it does not take much, and there is no going back once the water is in the glass.

Condition and wear

The jug is used and may carry marks from many years on a bar. Look through the photos before buying, and expect the possibility of small chips in the glaze or faded print.

Did you know?

A few drops of water really do change the aroma. Researchers have measured that some of the compounds giving whisky its character gather more densely near the surface when the alcohol strength drops a little.
