  • Comment: It doesn't look like any glass I've seen someone drink whiskey out of, and it doesn't seem to match any of the listed items. Am I missing something, here? Josh Milburn (talk) 21:01, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is it what they drink whiskey (виски) from in Serbia? Sca (talk) 22:13, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Dont tell me, its for wine ? ;)... 1. Is it problem to check google before such questions ? Maybe you are used to drink it from regular Bar Tumbler, in Germany. --PetarM (talk) 07:09, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Er, I'm not German, nor do I live in Germany.
    Perhaps the nom should be retitled Whisk(e)y-tasting glass? Sca (talk)
  • Oppose. I shouldn't need to check Google to understand what I'm looking at- it should be more than clear from the articles in which the image is used. Without this kind of context, the image lacks encyclopedic value. This nomination is premature. Josh Milburn (talk) 10:14, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – Maybe it would have a tad more visual interest if it had some whisk(e)y in it. Sca (talk) 13:04, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I plan to do that too. But that will bear different name...perhaps "Glass of whisky". --PetarM (talk) 11:14, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Why is it listed in the Beer Glassware section of the article? Per Josh Milburn, I'm not sure one should need to conduct a Google search to understand the image (which appears to be made by only a single manufacturer) and has a much closer resemblance to a glass for Grappa.--Godot13 (talk) 02:44, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
