Five Star Reviews: | 51% Excellent gift for a whisky lover June 12, 2017 These make a great gift for a whisky drinker. Perfect alternative to ice. Just keep the cubes in the freezer until they are needed.Easy to wash. High quality. They make simple drinks look fancier. He was super excited. They are EXACTLY the same ones that ... September 28, 2016 Bought these for a friend as a Christmas gift. He was super excited. They are EXACTLY the same ones that I have at home, except we paid WAY more money for ours (I think they were from Bed Bath and Beyond). The quality is the same, the price here on Amazon was just WAY better for some reason. I also like that these came with a bag for easy freezer storage. A must have for any whiskey drinker. :) Great for keeping your drink cold without watering it down. July 3, 2016 I bought these as a gift for a friend who drinks scotch but doesn't like it watered down. They work well and we haven't had any issues with them. Pro tip: Put them in a baggie and put them in with the regular ice and they will freeze much faster for reuse.I paid full price for this item and this review is not compensated in any way. If you found it helpful, please click "Yes." If not, please leave a comment on how I can improve my reviews. Thanks! Love these July 1, 2015 At first was hesitant about the amount of dust in the bag from the soap stone rubbing upon each other during shipping. Some stones were chipped in the corners and they were a lot smaller than I envisioned.. BUT that was a first reaction. Now that I have been using these for over a month, I love them! I haven't noticed chipping or cracking while using them, and they keep my drinks cold. Would highly advise using more stones than less, because of the size. Fun life lesson: if you put them away wet next to another good ol' Ice cube, they will join and you will have difficulties separating them... | 70% Really enjoy these. Helps not water down your drink October 19, 2016 Really enjoy these. Helps not water down your drink. Comes in a bag that we can just pop in the freezer. Great gift March 26, 2016 Great stocking stuffer for the whisky drinker in your life. We saw this set at a distillery for a much higher price. Stays cold and are small enough to just keep in the freezer till you need them. Great gift idea! January 13, 2016 I purchased these as a gift and they were a big hit! We all tried them out and they worked as expected. Yes, I'd purchase again! Great gift idea. unique December 17, 2015 a gift which was well rec'd --have seen cheaper versions--this is NOT plastic good guy gift, hostess w/a bottle gift My brother thought they were very cool when he opened them December 15, 2015 Shipping was very very fast. I gave these as a present. My brother thought they were very cool when he opened them! He's a foodie and enjoys a wide variety of whiskey. |
Four Star Reviews: | 15% these are great for whiskey and such October 6, 2016 these are great for whiskey and such. and while they work to chill wine I didn't like using them in wine because if you like red it kinda leaves a pink tint on the cubes afterwards These work as they should, but don't expect them ... July 8, 2016 These work as they should, but don't expect them to chill whisky as well as ice cubes. They really just take the warm edge off. I prefer it colder, so I got some large sphere ice molds to use instead. Stay cold April 3, 2016 Nice for the money. I order these for my hubby and they work great. They are smaller then I thought they would be but they stay nice and cold for about 3 drinks worth. Easy to clean and storage bag included keeps them together. Please note that these are NOT rocks. They're some ... December 29, 2015 Please note that these are NOT rocks. They're some plastic with a coating that after a few drinks will begin to peel. They are very nice and we use them quite often October 21, 2015 Bought these for my boyfriend for our whiskey glasses. They are very nice and we use them quite often! I would definitely recommend them and will likely re-purchase them when the time comes or as needed to add to our collection. Great chillin' set. August 9, 2015 Good set of whiskey stones. They are simple and do the trick. For the price you cannot beet these.I would definitely buy these again and would recommend them to anyone in search of a cold drink. | 10% They are good for the price March 30, 2016 They are good for the price, nice looking and they do the job. Remember they don't make the drink cold, they just keep the temperature Still nice to have on hand to chill wine December 11, 2015 Expected more chilling from these but i have no reference point to judge from. Still nice to have on hand to chill wine. |
Three Star Reviews: | 11% Three Stars June 28, 2017 Product leaves some residue in glass/drink, but does the job of keeping liquid cold. Not impressed with whiskey stones May 28, 2016 Husband says these didnt cool his whiskey at all, but they look nice. Aesthetically they get 5 stars, functionally they get 1 star. About the stones themselves, they came nicely packaged for gift giving, a little dusty from millingbut otherwise in great condition. Wet the stones are beautiful, dry they look like driveway gravel. They are cool for aesthetics but my husband said it made his ... March 28, 2016 They are cool for aesthetics but my husband said it made his drinks taste weird. However, I didn't notice. I like to have for company. Just ok. January 19, 2016 I use these to chill a glass of mead without watering it down. It works but just ok. If you use about half of the stones for a wine glass, it cools the drink but not enough. If you use all the stones in a glass, the drink is cooled enough but there isn't much room left in the glass to drink. These are cute but not effective. July 3, 2015 These cubes are cute as all get up. That's where the 3 stars comes in. However, as previous reviews the effectiveness of chilling is nonexistent. My husband has always wanted chilling cubes for his whisky. They look pretty cute in my freezer in their little bag but my husband has chosen to stick to the real ice cubes since they work better. What a bummer... | 8% Three Stars June 14, 2017 Only good for keeping a drink cold, not for cooling it down in the first place. Decent Stones December 27, 2015 They chill the glass but it doesn't get as cold as the drink would with ice. One of the stones split in half after I took it out of the freezer. |
Two Star Reviews: | 13% Not recommended. August 12, 2017 More work than pay-off. Freezing takes a short while and the stones do not cool my drinks for very long. 1 tumbler of anything and you need 3-5 more "new" or "cold" stones from the freezer. And that's if you poor room temp drinks. Not recommended, I have heard good things about "MARBLE" cubes. will invest in different products. overall,I'm very happy with it May 18, 2017 Product performance is very good, I am very happy it replaced me before that, the price is very cheap.I like it! I like this so much,I now have two Very pretty and not difficult to work with at all. this will come in handy These are wonderful! Very impressed. Disappointing June 28, 2016 The only "cool" thing about these are the way they look.Not only did they only serve as a Luke warm chilling device, I noticed a change in the taste of my cocktail. (And yes, I washed them very well before putting them in my glass.) Luke-warm rocks June 30, 2015 What seemed like a good idea is really not very functional. I had hoped for the best with these soap stone cubes, but I had to use over half of them for one cocktail, and the drink was barely cold; I immediately switched back to ice cubes. It's unfortunate that they did not work as advertised, as folks around me were intrigued by the idea. I didn't recommend these to any of them, and regret the purchase. The rocks simply don't get cold June 28, 2015 They look nice, they are well packaged, the velvet bag is a nice touch... But they do not get cold. I washed them and put them in the freezer for 48hrs and they feel slightly cool, but not cold at all. To cool down a glass of whisky they are simply not cold enough. We put in as many rocks as we could fit in the glass, and they still don't get cold. NOT COOL! June 19, 2015 I bought these because of the many positive reviews on Amazon. However, I tried them in several different kinds of drinks, and they simply don't work. There are two problems: 1. They don't get the drink anywhere nearly as cold as does ice, even when the drink came directly out of the refrigerator and hence was already cold; and 2. They quickly fail in that they don't keep the drink even at its original, refrigerated temperature. The drink warms up within 10 minutes of putting the cubes in. I am returning them. | 5% Great concept, but no chill December 11, 2016 In theory, this seemed like a great idea. The product is as described, except that the stones really don't chill the drink at all. They stay put and don't interfere with drinking, and they don't give off any detectable taste, but they really don't seem to do anything at all. I've not given up on such products--it would be great to have a metal cube or stone that cools ... June 11, 2016 I've had these stones for nearly a year and have used them probably 2 dozen times, hoping for a different experience or outcome. But it is now fully confirmed: these stones barely take the edge off room temperature whisky. There's hardly any discernable cooling after a couple minutes for a half-ounce of liquid with 3 or 4 stones, either left sitting still or swirling a bit. What little change is made has worn off in 5-10 minutes, and you're back with room temperature whisky. I've not given up on such products--it would be great to have a metal cube or stone that cools without dilution, but this product does not do the trick. Very disappointed November 25, 2015 I bought these as a gift for my step-father. The packaging was very flimsy and cheap. The box that holds the stones was falling apart as soon as I opened it. There were others that sold for a few dollars more that would probably be better quality. I'm still debating on whether or not to give him this or order a different set. It's borderline embarrassing to give a gift that looks so cheap. Would not recommend this to anyone ever. |
One Star Reviews: | 10% Buy a better option January 18, 2017 There is a reason these are less expensive than most similar products, they do not work nearly as well. I had more cubes than ounces of liquid, and the drink never really got cold and was actually back to room temp in about 10 minutes. UNSAFE! September 29, 2016 They are great.... if you are looking for dusty drinks. These stones are friable, you don't even need to touch them for them to kinda melt in your drink. NEVER AGAIN May 16, 2016 I got these to go with my really expensive whiskey collection - and i am completely disappointed. It barely chills the whiskey even after keeping it in the freezer for 3 days. It also leaves a powdery residue everytime i wash them with water.NEVER AGAIN Wanted these to chill wine when I forget to put ... May 10, 2016 Wanted these to chill wine when I forget to put it in the fridge... they do not work at all. maybe if you are drinking tiny amounts of liquor to rock ratio they would work but for wine, when the cubes are submerged. Don't bother November 16, 2015 These don't stay cold for long at all - nor do they really cool your drink. Don't bother, tbh! One Star August 17, 2015 Product did not chill whiskey. Put 8 stones in and whiskey didn't get very cold. | 7% Don't buy it August 14, 2016 It barley keep my glass cold. I will not buy againCubes are too small. Size of pebble |
