Top 5 Gifts for the Bartender
1) Slow Wine Pourer
A slow wine pourer is the best way to serve delicate and older wines. The Vacu Vin tool pours wine from the bottom of the bottle straight to the bottom of your glass slowly. This means there is minimal exposure to oxygen, which can zap freshness and affect taste. This slower method gives an aged bottle of cabernet sauvignon or Bordeaux the special treatment it deserves.
2) Chardonnay Go Adult Board Game
Ready, set, Chardonnay Go! This wine-fueled and themed board game is packed with hilarious questions and make-you-blush dares. Travel through the vineyard-inspired game board with the goal of reaching the tasting room. If you can make it without falling over with laughter (or spilling your wine), we salute you.
3) Canteen Vinnebago Edition - Matte Black
Independent barware company Corkcicle creates innovative ways to chill, store, and serve your favorite drinks. Vinnebago is a stainless steel, vacuum sealed, triple-walled beverage bottle that keeps what’s inside hot (up to 12 hours) or cold (up to 25 hours). This container won’t shatter so it’s safer than glass and perfect for venues where glass isn’t allowed.
4) Stemless Wine Glass
Vinglacé: Stemless Wine Glass - Sea Glass
5) Hand Cut Monogram Pint Glass - Set of 2
The classic Monogram on these personalized pint glasses is timeless. Susquehanna Glass Company has been hand etching glass in the USA for over 100 years, and they will etch your chosen letters with the attention to detail they’re known for. Each letter is painstakingly hand cut by holding the glass against a rotating stone wheel. The result is a crisp finish that will last for years.
