What are Whiskey Stones?

Whiskey Stones are little cubes of Marble that you put in your freezer and use instead of ice to chill your drink. These stones can be reused time and time again, just wash and freeze again in their box. The main benefit of using whiskey stones is that they will not increase the dilution of your drink as they do not melt, preserving the original flavour notes.

What Drinks can I put Whiskey Stones in?

 You can use the stones on all types of whiskey and other spirits.  Whiskey Stones are best used by those who want to chill their drink into the 4° to 15°C (40° to 60°F) range, which is considered by the master distillers we spoke to as the ideal temperature range for drinking whiskey.
