Why Most Bourbon Gifts Miss the Mark
Sending corporate gifts to bourbon lovers sounds great—until you actually try it.
You think, “Let’s send them a bottle!” But unlike wine, bourbon has a shipping problem. State laws are strict. Crossing state lines with alcohol isn’t just inconvenient—it’s often flat-out illegal unless you’re using a licensed fulfillment service, and even then, there are limits.
Glassware? Skip it. They’ve already got a dozen rocks glasses and Glencairns, and your logoed one isn’t making the shelf. Best case, it becomes a pencil cup. Worst case, it’s trash by Friday.
And cocktail smokers? Everyone bought one in 2022. Now they sit unused in a cabinet somewhere, next to the sous vide machine and the home ice press.
Better Options: Flavor-Driven, Brand-Forward
So what does work? Consumables with a personal touch. Bourbon lovers want things they can taste, mix, and experiment with—not just another piece of branded clutter.
1. Branded Simple Syrup or Bitters
There are companies making excellent cocktail syrups and bitters in beautiful packaging—and many offer personalization. Add your logo to the box, toss in a handwritten note, and you’ve got something they’ll actually use (and remember you for).
Think bourbon barrel-aged vanilla syrup, cherry bitters, or smoked maple—things they’ll want to try with their next pour.
2. Bourbon Baggers Presentation Boxes
This is where we come in. Our flagship corporate gift:
-
A wooden presentation box, laser-engraved with your company’s logo.
-
Two custom-selected flavors, 6 teabags of each.
-
Flavors designed to complement, enhance, or completely twist a pour of bourbon—without ever adding sugar or artificial junk.
The best part? It ships easily. No alcohol means no shipping restrictions. Just a beautiful, branded box that makes an impression.
3. Logo-Stickered Syrup Bottles & Gift Sets
For larger orders, we offer logo sticker branding on:
-
Our premium simple syrup bottles.
-
The Founders Flight gift set—a sleek, curated box of three teabag flavors, ideal for high-end gifting.
These sets have presence. They feel intentional, not off-the-shelf. And your branding sits right where it belongs.
