Gift Guide 2016: For the Cocktail Connoisseur



Our picks for the cocktail (and beer and wine) lovers on your list.

Above: This brass Crescent Bottle Opener ($46 from Rikumo) may look like an ornament at first glance, but its brilliant design (by Oji Masanori in partnership with nearly 120-year-old Japanese metal manufacturer Futagami) pops bottles with ease.

Above: This essential cocktail tome features musings, tips, and carefully illustrated cocktail recipes, all favorites of the legendary man behind NYC speakeasy-style bar Milk & Honey. Read it and you’ll be an instant mixologist. Available for $20.71 on Amazon.

Above: For the old-school imbiber: The Great American Flask (by 200-year-old manufacturer Jacob Bromwell) is made of copper, “just like the massive copper pots used by distillers,” and has an American birch stopper. It’s available for $200 at Heath Ceramics.
Above: Stewart & Claire’s Cocktail-Inspired Lip Balms are a clever way to keep the taste of your favorite drink on your lips. Made with essential oils, a trio of Negroni (orange and juniper), Old Fashioned (cedar, vanilla, and cinnamon), and Tiki (coconut oil and mandarin) is $22.

Above: We’re big fans of the wonky wares from Malfatti Glass (they were a hit at our NYC market last year); a pair of Vino Rosso glasses is $70 (visit the site to see more offerings).
