Set of 9 Grey Beverage Chilling Stones [Chill Rocks] Whiskey Stones for Whiskey and Other Beverages - in Gift Box with Velvet Carrying Pouch - Made of 100% Pure Soapstone - by Quiseen

The stones get cold quicker than ice and don’t dilute or change the taste of whisky’s or wine, but the best test was ice mountain water. No taste change at all. Good price, great value, and even the tongs are helpful. Thanks for sharing your product.

Update as of 2/25 - Adding a photo (sorry, video won't load) - yes, yes, Prosecco in a wine glass; but with the chilling stones straight from the freezer, perfect end to a long work day. They look odd, but are keeping the prosecco cold and they aren't diluting it. These will make great gifts. Yay!!Bought 2 sets of these - 1 for me and 1 for a whiskey loving friend; when I opened the box, the stones were quite chilled right off the bat; a quick rinse and into the pouch and into the freezer. They work great and while the color looks a bit odd in the glass, they work really well. I may just put them in a small dish going forward, but they work fine in the freezer in the pouch, in another container or loose on a dish. Sin a nice whiskey glass - Sláinte mhaith, gach daoine (Irish for "good health, everyone") :)

Purchased these for my husband. The packaging was very nice. The stones do exactly as intended and are a nice change up from ice cubes that water down drinks. There are clear instructions included if you've never used them and they even provide little tongs to place them in your drinks or remove.

This is a great set! My husband loves using these for his whiskey. They chill the drink much quicker than ice and, most importantly, don’t dilute or alter the taste of the whiskey. The only downside is that the cold doesn’t last as long as ice, but overall, it’s a solid purchase.

These were a nice addition to gift baskets we put together for an auction. Came in a nice box, too.

I ordered 2 packs of these because of the reviews but I have no idea how the reviews are that good when I think these chill rocks are Not All That!I put up to 3 of them in my tea, Pepsi even wine and they keep the drinks cold for about ahhh, 5 minutes if that and I'm even using a Tervis Tumbler as my cup or an expensive double insulated thermos tumbler. No good. I dont know if both packs that I bought were made on a Monday or Friday but they are not as advertised and they are not as good as everyone is stating.Hope you have better luck, the fake old school plastic ice cubes work much better than these silly things!

Works great. Cools the beverage without the watered down taste

I want to start this off by saying I RARELY post negative reviews. Initially, I searched for this product after visiting a friend's place and seeing it in use first hand. We each had a small glass of bourbon and put on single rock in that worked phenomenally. Now I should mention, my friend bought her set of whiskey rocks from a different website and it was an entirely different brand. I forgot the name of the brand, so I decided to do some digging on Amazon and get some.I was a bit hesitant to buy this product based on the reviews I read. A good number of the negative reviews all said the same thing: it doesn't actually chill the drink. Still, I went forward with purchasing it, giving them the benefit of the doubt in hopes it was user error. Looks like it wasn't.Upon receiving the package, I read through the instructions and followed them diligently. I even allowed the rocks to sit in the freezer for an entire week and a half to chill before using them. Despite taking all these precautions to ensure this product had the best odds, it failed miserably.I placed 5 rocks(which is a ridiculous amount in the first place, mind you. The brand my friend and I used only needed one and it chilled the drink in minutes) in a small glass before pouring the bourbon over. I tested it initially to see it's starting temperature, waited about ten minutes to taste it again. Still warm. I waited 10 more minutes to see if it needed to sit for longer. Still warm. Finally, I let it sit for 20 minutes (40 minutes in total) and it was finally a bit colder.So yes, TECHNICALLY this product works, but only if you want to fill your glass with a ridiculous amount of rocks and wait almost an hour for it to get cold before drinking. That being said, I did give it a few more stars in the cleaning department as these are dishwasher safe and very easy to clean as long as you rinse it immediately after using it. Still, the cleanability of the product means very little if the product doesn't actually work for it's intended use.Would not buy again. I will be searching elsewhere for new whiskey rocks and throwing these in the trash.
