Seems like a good deal.

I got a couple sets of these thru Woot.com's daily deal a couple weeks back. Won't make a drink of bourbon or scotch without 'em now

Looks interesting, thanks for the link.

I've heard of these but never tried them. Sounds like you guys are convinced they are worth getting.

3SmokesaRound · 12-29-2011, 08:16 PM

Bump for the night crew. About 2 1/2 hours until the deal ends.

mase · 12-29-2011, 08:22 PM

Picked up a deuce. Thanks for the heads up!

cort · 12-29-2011, 08:32 PM

Stoli stones Tom ?

BTW, 23-10-4 = 9 Blackhawks

ktblunden · 12-30-2011, 08:03 AM

That was a great deal on these things. I paid more than that on Woot a few weeks ago. I really like these stones, they work really well.

rizzle · 12-30-2011, 10:52 AM

I got a set last year and used them once. Didn't work for me.

Cool concept, but doesn't work as well as advertised. You're better off leaving the bottle in the fridge for a while, I usually chill the glass before pouring my spirit.

Or drinking it at room temperature so you can actually taste it.

VTDragon · 01-18-2012, 03:25 PM

I got a set for Christmas. They did not keep the drink as cold as ice does-- but no dilution. I had not realized how much I have become accustomed to the watered down whisky as you consume a drink. Jury is still out for me. I'll continue testing.

Sometimes room temp down here in South Florida is a bit warm to my taste, if these things can cool my whisky 5-10 degrees off that I might be a buyer. Do they at least do that? I'm not looking for cold, just a touch cooler than room temp.

Instead of just getting an icy burn all the way down?

icehog3 · 01-18-2012, 03:27 PM

Used mine a few times, 5 stones in 2 fingers of booze barely cools it off. Thank goodness they were cheap.

I'm gonna try cooling of my glass, and chilling the water I add to the single malt.
