THE TWO MAIN DESIGN FEATURES
1. Ledges
The upper part of the SAVU tasting glass features precisely engineered ledges — carefully positioned volumetric planes that gently guide evaporation. These structures mimic the distillation process, eliminating the alcohol fumes while leaving the aroma.
2. Hourglass Shape
The novel hourglass shape with its neck curbs the alcohol evaporation and escape into your nose from the lower part.
The only truly functional glass
SAVU’s beauty emerges from its unique, delicate and functional design.
Only SAVU glass is able to eliminate nose-numbing alcohol fumes and offer unlimited access to aromas.
The function is proven in laboratory.
Everyone notices the difference against any other glass.
Why buy the best whisky glass
Alcohol is an essential part of whisky — but it should never dominate it. The true character of whisky lies in its aromas, the delicate notes crafted by nature and perfected by distillers. These aromas are what make whisky so endlessly fascinating.
Yet, in traditional glasses, these aromas remain hidden. The strong alcohol vapours overwhelm and numb our noses before we can truly experience the whisky’s depth.
As long as our senses are overpowered by excess alcohol fumes, we cannot fully taste the whisky — we can’t feel what the distiller intended.
That’s why the world needed a better whisky glass. SAVU was created to finally solve this age-old problem — to reveal the whisky’s true aromas and let you taste with your nose.
SAVU WHISKY GLASS DESIGN
Laboratory-proven functionality
Smelling and tasting whisky are deeply personal experiences — but one scientific fact is certain: alcohol vapour blocks our ability to sense aromas. When the nose meets a cloud of alcohol fumes, our receptors and brain focus on the burn instead of the bouquet.
SAVU changes that. By reducing excess alcohol vapours, it removes the “alcohol burn” and reveals the whisky’s true aromas — effortlessly.
The figure shows how alcohol evaporation differs between SAVU and a traditional whisky glass. With SAVU (brown line), alcohol vapors quickly diminish, allowing the aromas to emerge naturally. In contrast, the traditional glass (black line) retains high alcohol levels, making aroma sensing difficult — even over time.(*)
(*) Alcohol evaporation measurements were performed in the Department of Food Chemistry and Food Development of the University of Turku, one of Finland’s leading universities.
EVERYONE NOTICES THE DIFFERENCE!
You don’t have to take only our word — or the lab results — for it. Whisky lovers who tested SAVU instantly felt the difference: 100% noticed how much better it revealed the aromas compared to traditional glasses.
With SAVU, every sip becomes more vivid, more nuanced, and more enjoyable.
The soul of whisky lies in its aromas — the signature that makes each spirit unique. SAVU unlocks those hidden layers and transforms your whisky experience. It’s not just another glass — it’s a game changer. Try it, and you’ll never go back.
Whisky aromas belong to everyone
“Vanilla and caramel aromas with fruity undertone.” or “, Granny Smith apple with a touch of citrus and a piety finish.” Sounds fantastic, but leaves most of us wondering: Where are these flavours and scents then? How come I cannot sense them?
All these aromas really do exist in whiskies, but with traditional whisky glasses they just go mostly unnoticed. Because alcohol fumes numb our sense of smell, there is often a large gap between our personal experience and the actual aromas in whisky.
