Hosting A Tasting Event? Give Out These Exclusive Return Gifts
SO, you've cracked the code to the popping social scene with your alcohol tasting event, vaulting past those same-old gatherings where everyone predictably brings along the same bottle of wine. Congratulations! You're now the toast of your circle. But as every good host knows, the swan song of such an evening lies in its parting gesture—the return gifts. Let's skip the usual and dive into some genuinely inspired ideas that'll have your guests yearning for your next event.
Spirit Subscription
Why stop the discovery for just one evening? A spirit subscription can be a golden ticket to a monthly surprise for your guests. It's the gift that keeps on giving, offering a new bottle of liquid gold to their doorstep long after your event has passed. Each month, as they uncork a new experience, they’ll toast to your health and an unforgettable night of tastings.
Mezcal Cocktail Kit
For those evenings when mezcal's smoky notes stole the show, why not keep the fun going with a mezcal cocktail kit? Pack a small bottle of standout mezcal, a couple of artisanal mixers that complement its complex notes, and a simple recipe card for crafting a mezcal masterpiece at home. Throw in a traditional clay cup for serving, and you’ve just elevated their cocktail game.
Personalised Bottle Opener Key Chains
There’s something delightfully personal about a bottle opener keychain, especially when it carries a memory. Engrave them with the date of your tasting event or a cheeky quote that sums up the night. It’s a handy little keepsake that'll have them reminiscing about the flavours and laughs every time they pop open a bottle.
Decanters For the Aesthetes
A beautiful decanter is more than just a vessel; it’s a piece that says, "I take my spirits seriously." Gift your guests a sleek, modern decanter to elevate their home bar. It’s a centrepiece that sparks conversations and admiration, a reminder of the sophisticated evening spent in good company.
Miniature Whiskies: A Tiny Tipple
There’s something irresistibly charming about miniature bottles of whisky. They’re like regular bottles that have been hit with a shrink ray, maintaining all the character and complexity in a palm-sized package. Select a few favourites that were tasted during the event, providing a tiny but potent reminder of the night’s best hits.
DIY Infusion Kit for Vodka: For Mixologists in the Making
Encourage your guests to play alchemist with a DIY vodka infusion kit. Include a small bottle of premium vodka, a selection of infusion ingredients (think dried fruits, spices, or botanicals), and a set of instructions for concocting their personalised blend. It’s a hands-on gift that invites them to experiment and create something uniquely theirs.
