I never understood the aversion to a traditional cocktail glass. If it's good enough for Sinatra, it's good enough for me. I think that the aversion is because recently they've been too often filled with things that are pink and not enough gin and whiskey, and then the aversion to things that are pink gets displaced to the glasses.

I think you are dead on here. It's tough for younger men to drink a martini in the same glass that three girls at the end of the bar are drinking a cosmo, a chocotini and an pomegranitini from.

I've actually never had whiskey with lime before. I've long been a fan of whiskey with lemon (and usually something else...like Benedictine...mmmmmmmmm), but I've been nervous about its interaction with lime. Does it work?

For you, no. I didn't like it as much. I guess it's okay, and since lime is becoming more and more popular it's going to get mixed in there more often, but the lemon was better.
