Let customers speak for us
from 431 reviewsVery happy with my new tumbler.
I bought two of the YB tumblers and they were exactly as described, very well packaged for a premium look/feel. The presentation and unboxing was better than expected.
I pre ordered them, they shipped on time and arrived when expected.
I'm very pleased with them, the only negative is that I do think the branding on the piston itself is a little big and on both sides.
Again you can see this in the pictures it wasn't hiding or a surprise, these are the best if not only piston tumblers around so I can live with it.
Before purchase I read many reviews and replies from the company and they delivered.
The look and feel of these glasses are second to none. Being very much into motorsports I immediately knew I would love these. Bought my first set a while back and gave 3 of them to supporters of my small business. This time I didn’t hesitate and those same 3 people will get a new glass, which I know they will appreciate.
Speedy delivery, nicely presented, fantastic looking glass
This is now the fourth one i have bought two for myself loved them so much ive bought two for presents ine for a birthday and one for a retirement gift. Keep looking out for different ones as i will buy again. They are fab and used several times a week.
I have now bought two whiskey tumblers and both times I have been absolutely blown away. The craftsmanship is amazing. I’m even super impressed with the packaging
I’m a gearhead, GM guy, and like bourbon. The detail on this is awesome and it fits in hand great. I got one to gift to a fellow gearhead and one for myself. Highly recommend
Amazing quality!! I bought a set for my childhood friend. And now I want a set for myself LOL
I love these ... first I bought the YB9.0:1, the on the back of that experience, the LS. Both are beautifully crafted, unique and one hell of a talking point with friends and family. I can't wait to see what's next, but I know I'll be in line to buy it!
If I could make one suggestion .... as a life-long biker, I'd love to see motorcycle piston shot glasses!! So many historic engines to choose from.
Beautifully made and full of detail. Haven't used it as a glass yet, its in the display cabinet instead!
I had been looking at these for some time. Very nicely made with a quality feel. I purchased 2 .
Amazing quality and fantastic packaging.
I enjoy a few special whiskies from time to time. Wanted a couple of great tumblers for that occasion. I have the LS1 engine, and have installed pistons very much like the ones used on the tumbler. This product was ideal for me. Great weight to them. Come in a very nice box and numbered. Very impressed with them.
Have to say these are great glasses and I love them. What would be great would be an engraved issue release data and possible a numer x of x on it.
My husband LOVES his new whiskey glass! He loves the details in the piston, as well as the weight and feel of the whole glass. We sold our LS motor Camaro but this is a good homage to it. We would love to see more pistons from Japanese legendary motors too.

Why the YB?
The YB 9.0:1 pays homage to the mighty turbocharged 'YB' 4-Cylinder that was such a ubiquitous part of motorsport in the late 80's and through the 90's.
This was the Group A era, an age when the fire breathing beasts tearing through Rally stages and battling door-to-door in Touring car races around the globe were more closely related to the machinery on your local dealership forecourt than at anytime before or since.
This unique level of relatability seems to have endowed the YB, and other machinery of that period, with a unique ability to captivate nearly all generations of motorsport enthusiasts.
It is for that reason we have chosen it to be the subject of our first product to market.
Are they really forged?
Yes.
Our aluminium bases are manufactured in a very similar fashion to real motorsport pistons. We start with an ingot of solid aluminium which is Hot-Forged under immense pressure to form the basic shape.
This rough forging is then CNC milled to +/-0.05mm tolerances before cutting the valve reliefs, ring lands, oiling holes & wrist pin bore.
Will there be more designs in the future?
Absolutely! The YB 9.0:1 is just the start for the Whiskey Piston Company.
We already have a long list of future products just waiting to be brought to market. Whether your passion lies in JDM Legends, European Icons or American Muscle, with your support we will make it a reality. We might even delve into the world of two wheels...
