Top 5 Wine Gifts
1) Anatomy Coaster Set, Bar
Pick a libation and learn a little something. This drink coaster set highlights fun facts and interesting info about whiskey, wine, and beer, and celebrates each one with charming illustrations. Cheers to that.
2) Unbreakable Drinkware - Set of 6
Virtually unbreakable beverage glasses
3) Straight Single Glass Straw
Strawesome: Single Glass Straw - 8" Clear - Straight
4) 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.
5) Cool ID Tumbler - Set of 2
Say cheers to ceramic tumblers that keep beverages perfectly chilled. Submerge the tumblers in cool water to activate their natural cooling properties. This ceramic absorbs the water quickly, leaving the surface dry, so there’s no condensation, inside or out. Your drinks stay cool for hours. The matte surface is sophisticated and also acts as a chalkboard if you want to write on it.
