A throwback to the 1950s and 1960s after prohibition ended, bourbon, scotch, and whiskey decanter sets have re-surged in popularity in recent years.

What is a Whiskey Decanter, and What is it Used for?

Originally limited to the most wealthy individuals, a whiskey, scotch, or bourbon decanter was used to preserve liquors, the prevailing wisdom of the time being that the bottles in which liquor was purchased in were ugly or unsophisticated, and also many times hard to reseal. Not only more beautiful, they also solved the problem of the cork drying out or going bad, tainting the flavor. The decanters of the time, and ever since have used a glass stopper instead of the cork stopper.

Fast forward to prohibition, and the whiskey decanter took on a new role, as a way to hide your illegal whiskey or scotch in plain sight. They accomplished this by using a decorative glass decanter bottle to disguise the liquor inside. You can imagine after the end of prohibition in the 50's and 60's, the liquor distributors main concern wasn't what their bottles looked like, they just wanted to get it on the shelves to meet the huge demand. From this, a new concern arose. How was one to be a sophisticated socialite, and throw a party for one's upscale friends with such ugly bottles adorning the counters?
