I’ve bought this as a gift for my husband and it came nicely packaged and looks to be of great quality. I look forward to seeing future products for sale.
Absolutely amazing set of glassware. Sturdy, and classy!
Incredibly well made and a perfect match to my hand built Cosworth Powered Hot Rod which we are currently building, cars and whiskey a match made in heaven.
What can I say ? Wow, it’s so lovely and I’m not a car freak like my hubby.
Let him have a look at it, and he is well chuffed with it, still told him he’s not getting it till Christmas 🤣

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...
