Gift Sets

A good bourbon gift matches the recipient’s taste and how they plan to drink it. For neat pours, consider a refined or rich style with toasted oak, caramel, or approachable sweetness; for cocktails, choose a classic, versatile profile. Presentation can matter for collectors, while newer bourbon drinkers may appreciate an accessible bottle. A bourbon sampler or coordinated gift set is also practical when you are unsure of one exact style.

Cut wrapping paper wide enough to encircle the bottle with about 2 to 3 inches of overlap, leaving at least 8 inches above the top. Lay the bottle horizontally, roll the paper snugly around it, and tape the seam. Fold the excess paper inward at the bottom to create a flat base. Gather or fan-fold the paper above the neck, then secure it with ribbon.

Send wine as a gift by ordering through a licensed retailer or winery rather than mailing a bottle yourself. Choose a bottle or gift set, provide the recipient’s address, and add a gift notification if the service offers one. Sending rules vary by destination state. The recipient must be 21 or older and available to sign, so confirm those details before placing the order.
