Pivoting Whiskey Tumblers

The Rocking Whiskey Glass from Cool Material Will Slosh Your Drink

— February 8, 2013 — Lifestyle
Thanks to a clever pivot at the bottom, these liquor cups will slosh your whiskey for you.

With the latest influx of hand occupiers, like cell phones and video game controllers, it isn’t as easy for a gentleman to rock their whiskey as it was in the days of old—there just aren’t enough free hands. Enter the Rocking Whiskey Glass from Cool Material. This classy glass will rock that whiskey for you like your own personal bartender.

The liquor cups also come with the guarantee that the rocking will never get out of control enough to cause any spilling. This is handy because, as any Whiskey drinker will attest, it gets harder not to spill as those stiff drinks start to flow.
Trend Themes
1. Self-rocking Glassware - The innovation opportunity here is to create self-rocking glasses for other types of alcoholic drinks than just whiskey.
2. Hands-free Drinking - The innovation opportunity here is to create hands-free drinking products that appeal to busy individuals such as commuters, gamers, and harried executives.
3. Smart Barware - The innovation opportunity here is to create smart barware that collects data on drinking habits and preferences to offer customized recommendations and promotions.
Industry Implications
1. Barware - The Barware industry can use this to create more innovative glasses that can cater to the needs of consumers who want an easier way to drink alcohol.
2. Alcohol - The Alcohol industry can explore how they can leverage technology to enhance the drinking experience of their target market using self-rocking glasses.
3. Home Appliances - The Home Appliances industry can use this technology to create smart devices that can help individuals make and serve drinks easily and conveniently while entertaining guests.
