Searching through the forum archives found a review of B&B Dom and in the review was this interesting heating vessel type glass. Rounded glass for hot water with glass on top for keeping alcohol warm. Does anyone know the name of this type of glass and where I can locate a site with it for sale? Thanks! :lol:

It's gonna be impossible to find a brandy warmer like that one specifically.

Most brandy warmers are fueled by the power of tea-lights.

Kegworks.com Drinkstuff.com and KlinQ.com all have those types. The origional glass bulb water style you're probably gonna need to have hand blown.

You could find some nice stuff on E-Bay if you're lucky...

Sometimes they're refered to as warmer decanturs

I've only ever seen that style of glass marketed for Martinis/Manhattans. Throw crushed ice in the lower chamber and you've got a well-chilled cocktail impervious to room temperature.

And Brandy snifters traditionally are shaped to trap the aroma of the liquor and deliver it squarely into the nose as one imbibes.

But I'm always amazed at the drunkard ingenuity that screams "Necessity is the mother of invention." Gotta try that one some time.

I know of what I speak. But again, I applaud the ingenuity for other uses.
