What Makes It Uncommon

keyboard_arrow_up

Ice Aged

Your favorite bourbon, barreled for at least a decade. Your preferred scotch, matured for a minimum of two. The age of these stones used to chill your drink? Nine hundred and forty million years. Kim B. Deland & Stephane Gagnon scour Quebec's seasonally snowless terrain to locate nonporous, metamorphic rocks formed during the American continent's creation. Once the stones are extracted, the couple transforms their discoveries into cocktail-size cubes that can be conveniently stored in the freezer to add ice-age temps to whiskey, brandy, and other amber-colored spirits without ever watering down the flavor. A new era indeed. Handmade in Canada.

Due to the handmade nature of this item, each is unique and will vary.
