Any whiskey lover likes to drink whiskey with ice but doesn’t want the ice to dilute the flavor. That’s why in the last ten years, whiskey stones have appeared on the market, and it just so happens that our company has done a lot of research in the production of stones, and the stones we produce are also exported overseas.
A whiskey stone is a drinking stone that is sure to be one of the best gifts for a bartender or party host. Tartar is made into small cubes of non-porous soapstone that will not affect the flavor and aroma of the malt. So when you are going to use it, put the tartar stone in the refrigerator for 4 hours to chill the whiskey before putting it in the glass. Here’s a little known fact. The process of cooling any drink involves transferring heat from the drink to the object being cooled, such as a whiskey tartar. Ice will absorb the heat from the whiskey stone, causing it to melt. The melted ice then cools the surrounding liquid. However, a whiskey stone does not melt in a drink, so the stone will only absorb the heat from the whiskey, which will then cool your whiskey. This is the physics of alternating hot and cold in an object.
Types of whiskey stones
Stainless Steel
The characteristic of stainless steel is that it conducts heat quickly, but has a very small specific heat capacity. Therefore, it can lower the temperature. The molecules of the metal are relatively active, and stainless steel can remove the fishy smell of seafood.
Soapstone
Soapstone is characterized by a soft, dense, smooth texture that can be cut with a knife, and the softer material is used so as not to scratch the glass. In addition a larger specific heat capacity will absorb more heat, the effect of cooling whiskey will be better.
Aged Ice
Old ice refers to chunks of ice that have been frozen in cold storage for more than three days, while some Japanese whiskey lovers need ice that has been frozen for 10 days. Such ice is crystal clear and hard enough that only a little bit of water will melt out even if left in the bottle for half a day. There is no need to worry about the melted water ruining the taste of the whiskey. Old ice is now a common drinking stone in many bars.
Natural Jade Stone
Natural jade itself has a cooling effect, and with the added benefit of being chilled in the refrigerator before use, the cooling effect of jade is perfect for whiskey. Natural jade is not only beautiful to look at, but it also has many benefits for the human body. For example, jade can add trace elements to the human body, absorb negative energy and bad moods, and ward off evil spirits.
Benefits of whiskey stone
In addition to whiskey, tartar can also be used in red wine, other spirits, cocktails and even herbal teas and drinks. Not only does tartar not change the strength of the wine, but it also does not dilute the flavor of the wine, while providing a better taste. The key is that tartar can be used an unlimited number of times and can be recycled.
