What Do You Include That Makes The Best Old Fashioned Gift Set?

Liquor: Old Fashioned Drink Kit Gift

Technically, you can make an Old Fashioned with just about any whiskey. You can make an Old Fashioned with brandy, bourbon, scotch or rye. But we believe that the Old Fashioned is best crafted with some high proof bourbon as the base.

When you select your Old Fashioned cocktail gift basket, we can work with you for the kind of liquor you would want.

We always include tasting notes along with your Old Fashioned gift set so that your giftee can appreciate the finer nuances of this drink.

Our notes allow for an interesting exploration into the history of Old Fashioned and everything that makes this a cherished cocktail.

Fresh Fruits For Your Old Fashioned Cocktail Gift Basket

You can complement your Old Fashioned gift basket with our seasonal and fresh fruits.

At 180 Drinks, we source organic fruits where possible.

Gifts For Old Fashioned Drink Lovers: Add Fresh Herbs And Spices

We can include fresh herbs and spices to impart maximum flavor and echo the ingredients of your drink both aromatically and visually.

Our Old Fashioned cocktail gift sets come complete with plenty of unique, tasteful accoutrements that are part of some of the best gifts for Old Fashioned lovers!

Citrus Notes for Old Fashioned-Based Cocktails

The Old Fashioned has remained popular over the years because it’s relatively simple. Some mixologists and bartenders may muddle orange and lemon segments into Old Fashioned cocktails.

We add fresh citrus fruits to our Old Fashioned cocktail gifts.

Bourbon Old Fashioned Sweeteners

A sweetener is almost always used in making an Old Fashioned. A sweetener adds a subtle sweetness that opens up the bourbon or rye aroma.

Traditionally a sugar cube is often used as sweetener, however this is difficult to dissolve. Instead we prefer syrups as these dissolve quickly and evenly. A simple sugar syrup works well but we can also add honey or maple syrup to your gift.

For our Old Fashioned drink gifts, we use syrups that are free from artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, and sweeteners.

Bitters For Your Old Fashioned Gift Pack

The Angostura bitters are the most common bitters used in making this cocktail. This is a safe option that reproduces the original flavors of the Old Fashioned. Bitters add complexity and dimension to the bourbon or rye or Scotch and just two dashes will do the trick.

However, if you are looking to experiment further, changing the bitters can bring in interesting and unusual flavors. Your giftee may appreciate it!

Old Fashioned Gifts Garnishes

The Old Fashioned is not quite complete without a garnish.

The classic garnish is the lemon twist or an orange peel. Occasionally, maraschino cherries work well too.

Ice For Your Old Fashioned Gift Set

The Old Fashioned is a cocktail meant to be sipped and savored slowly. Adding poor quality ice can ruin this experience, turning the drink into a watery mess. Avoid small ice cubes to your Old Fashioned cocktail.

We can add in large ice cube trays that create ice that melts slowly, allowing the flavors and aromas of the drink to reach its fullest expression.

The proper ice helps achieve a silky, viscous texture that makes this drink hugely popular.

Old Fashioned Whiskey Glass Set

The Old Fashioned is one of the few cocktails that actually has a glass named after it. The traditional Old Fashioned glass should comfortably hold large ice cubes and the liquor.

This is also known as the rocks glass or the lowball glass. We can add a touch of class to your drinks gift with special glassware.

Old Fashioned Cocktail Tool Set

At 180 Drinks, we can also provide high quality professional barware for your old fashioned gifts. Our curated set of bar tools are selected for building a great stirred old fashioned.

Each old fashioned gift illustrates both the art and science of how the tools and ingredients work together to help create high quality drinks.

Yarai mixing glass
Bar spoon
Strainer
Peeler
