The Glencairn Glass - The story so far

The Glencairn Glass can be found at every major whisky festival in the world as well as any serious whisky bar. The glass is used at distilleries from the Glens of Speyside to the paddy fields of Yilan County. Since it's launch in 2001 the glass has won numerous awards including the Queens Award for Innovation. It may have taken a few hundred years to arrive, but whisky now has a glass of its own... finally!
This film was created for the Scotch Whisky Association; Grain to Glass exhibition December 2012.

I just bought several sets. Glencairn has better transparency and shininess. In one word, the quality of Glencairn is much better than the fake ones.

I just wonder, are there many fakes going round by any chance? Because I've bought a few Glencairn glasses for as little as 3.50 euro's!
