Home Bar Gifts
Two things turn a drink at home into a bar drink: a bit of smoke and one big clear ice cube. Here is the kit for each, both easy gifts for anyone who likes whiskey or cocktails.
Before you buy
What people ask about the smoker kit and the clear ice maker.
Which one makes the better gift?
The Cocktail Smoker Kit, if they drink whiskey or cocktails. It comes with the torch, 6 tins of wood chips, 2 whiskey glasses and 2 ice ball molds, so it is ready to use the day it arrives. The only thing to add is a can of butane. The Clear Ice Maker is the one for someone who already has the glasses and wants every drink to look like it came from a bar. More ideas, including some we do not sell, are in gifts for whiskey lovers.
Does the torch come with butane?
No. Butane is restricted in shipping, so the torch arrives empty. Buy a can locally and fill the torch before the first use.
How does the smoker work?
Set it on the glass, add a pinch of wood chips, light them with the torch and let the smoke settle for 10 to 30 seconds. It works on an Old Fashioned, a Manhattan or a neat whiskey, and on drinks without alcohol like cold brew or iced tea. Step by step: how to use a cocktail smoker.
How does the clear ice maker make clear ice?
The insulated box freezes the water from the top down. That pushes the air bubbles and the cloudy part into the reservoir underneath, so the 8 cubes in the tray come out clear. Give it 24 to 30 hours on a flat freezer shelf. Full guide: how to make clear ice at home.
