Top 5 Gifts for the Bartender
1) Hand-Blown Glass Decanter
Prestige Decanters: Hand-Blown Glass Decanter - Atlas
2) Cross-Back Denim Apron
This denim apron takes a utilitarian approach to keeping you clean in the kitchen. Pure cotton denim is the aprons’ durable base, and there are perfectly-sized pockets for a notebook and pens. The cross-back construction opens up your range of motion and, because it doesn’t tie around the neck, it creates less stress there during long baking sessions.
3) Chubby Glass Bottle & Pour Spout
Crew Supply Co.: Chubby Glass Bottle - Citrus
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) Glass Fridge Beverage Dispenser
The unique design of the Kilner® Fridge Drinks Dispenser makes it perfect for keeping drinks cold and fresh for longer, without taking up too much room in your fridge. With a capacity of 102 fluid ounces and a helpful measuring scale on the side, this dispenser also helps to monitor daily water intake. Featuring an easy pour tap that will keep drinks flowing, a silicone valve that regulates air pressure inside the container, and an elegant rectangular shape, this dispenser is designed specifically to maximize space on your refrigerator shelves.
