Stimuli

Here at the Stimuli offices we have taken some inspiration from our MoBros (see our Publisher’s blog) and have been doing some digging on Canadian Whisky – or is that Rye or Scotch? Whatever your poison, the sound of ice tinkling against a crystal glass brings back memories of Grandfathers and Uncles and amber coloured liquid sitting on the sideboard in a decanter. While the thought of tipping back a dram or two may put hair on your chest, some purists would say “no way” to adding ice to their favourite spirit and others would debate differently.

For designer Andrew Hellman of Teroforma, the answer to the age old debate came from a bag of stones he found in his grandfather’s liquor cabinet. Milled from Vermont Soapstone, Whisky Rocks are the perfect way to chill your favourite libation without watering it down.  A fantastic gift idea (ahem – Christmas is only 46 days away), Whiskey Rocks come in a set of nine stones along with a muslin storage bag and retail for $24.99. We discovered these while wandering the new releases at Chapters.
