What is the wand?
The wand is beautifully crafted from high end, lead free special quartz glass based on a specific and proprietary formulation and is powered by <33™ Technology.
Wine
The wand features <33™ Technology that, when used with Wine, mimics the effects of decanting and interacts with tannins amongst other benefits. The advantage of the wand is that its effects are instantaneous and therefore eliminates the lengthy time for decanting to take effect.
Spirits
When used with Spirits it aerates and tames the taste of alcohol and highlights subtle flavours, improving the overall sensory experience amongst other benefits. The results are virtually instantaneous (3-5 min.).
What does it do?
Wine
The wand oxygenates the wine which opens up the aromas and softens the tannins. Decanting can have the same effects but requires considerably longer and can start oxidation, degrading the wine. Wines often need to be decanted for at least one hour or more to show the same effect, which requires planning and preparation and is not always practical.
Spirits
The wand oxygenates the distilled beverage which opens up the aromas and softens the taste of the alcohol. Decanting and aging can have similar but limited effects and requires considerably longer. It most cases regular decantation starts oxidation degradation over time. Spirits often need to be decanted for at least a few hours to show the same effect, which requires planning and preparation and is not always practical, especially if you only enjoy a glass at a time.
How does it work?
By immersing the wand into wine or spirits, designated natural frequencies infuse.
Wine
In Wine it encourages oxygen uptake and other beneficial attributes allowing the bouquet (smell) and taste of the wine to fully evolve.
Spirits
In Sprits It encourages oxygen uptake and allowing the bouquet (smell) and taste to fully evolve while taming the taste of the alcohol.
How do you use it?
Wine

- Remove and enjoy!
Spirits
- Carefully place the wand in the glass. (Of course, if you plan to consume a good part or the entire bottle, you can place in the bottle).
- Leave it for 3-5 minutes.
- Remove and enjoy!
What type of wines should you use it on?
Wine
The wand works best on red wines that are young and tannic. It is particularly effective on some wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Nebbiolo.
Older wines, red and white that have been cellared for some time also benefit from a speedy and efficient aeration to open the wine for best enjoyment.
Spirits
The wand works well with most distilled beverages from all types of whisky (Scotch, Irish, Rye, Bourbon), Cognac, Armagnac, Brandy, Grappa, Tequila, Mescal, Rum, Slivovitz to name the most common.
HOW TO PERFORM
A TASTE TEST
Wine
In order to fully appreciate the difference, make sure to keep the wand away from the wine bottle at all times as proximity can already start the process.
Open the bottle, pour two identically filled glasses of wine.
Place the wand into one glass and place on a separate table.
After 5 minutes, remove the wand. First compare the aroma from “treated” to “non-treated” glass. Then take a sip from the treated and allow your senses take in the flavours and taste. Then take a sip from the “non-treated” glass and compare the experience.
You can repeat the process and keep moving between the treated and non-treated as you desire. Write to us with your stories and we will enter you in our draw to win an additional OMNE-Wand or special accessories.

After 5 minutes, remove the wand. First compare the aroma from “treated” to “non-treated” glass and the intensity of alcohol smell. Then take a sip from the treated and allow your senses take in the flavours and taste. Also note the intensity of the alcohol. Then take a sip from the “non-treated” glass and compare the experience.
