If you thought you could only enjoy a smoked cocktail at your favorite pub, think again. Bark & Barware’s Cocktail Smoker Kit makes it easy for everyone to unleash their inner mixologist skills.
I love watching a smoked cocktail come to fruition. Each bar has its way of doing it, and it’s fascinating to me how such a simple method completely changes the taste of a cocktail.
We have tried other smokers, and they were all too much work to use (too many parts and steps). I was recently offered the opportunity to try the Bark & Barware Cocktail Smoker Kit, and I am glad I did. Admittedly, my husband did all the work, and I reaped the rewards of a smoked old-fashioned.
As we tested the kit out, what we found was a smoker that was easy to use, attractive enough to leave sitting on the bar shelf, and a smoked old-fashioned in my hand that rivaled anything I have ordered while out on the town.
Here’s what comes in the Bark & Barware kit as listed on Amazon:
- 🔥 Whiskey Smoker Variety: A whiskey smoker kit that boasts six different flavors, including pear, oak, cherry, apple, hickory, and maple, providing a diverse and personalized smoking experience.
- 🍹 Cocktail Smoker Kit with Torch Precision: Elevate the cocktail experience with a comprehensive cocktail smoker kit equipped with a torch for precise control over the smoking process. This kit includes four whiskey stones, a metal brush, tongs, and a torch.
- 🥃 Aged and Charred Bourbon Smoker Kit: An aged and charred cocktail smoker kit specifically designed for bourbon enthusiasts, ensuring an authentic and rich smoky flavor in every drink.
- 🌬️ Efficient Torch Integration for Old Fashioned Smoker Kit: Provides users with a seamless and controlled smoke infusion for their favorite drinks.
- 🎁 Exquisite Gift Presentation with Glass Dome: Present the bourbon smoker kit as an exquisite gift option by incorporating a glass dome, enhancing the visual appeal and making it a sophisticated choice for cocktail enthusiasts.
Each piece comes in a beautiful wooden box that looks great sitting anywhere. One of the first things we noticed was the quality and well-thought-out design that goes into the box and the entire set. This is a smoker you will use for a lifetime, and it is a gorgeous gift for the cocktail lovers in your life. You can snag yours here. Remember, you must purchase butane separately, which can be easily found at grocery stores and home improvement stores or, of course, on Amazon.
The kit suggests it is for bourbon enthusiasts, and I agree; however, it would also work well with other cocktails, especially tequila drinks.
What makes the smoker exceptional is the torch. It’s a simple torch with a small flame that efficiently heats the flavored wood chips in the metal filter, which sits atop the glass. The filter is then covered with a wooden lid, enveloping the interior of the glass and your cocktail with smoke. You need only a few wood chips to get the right amount of smoke per drink.
For those new to smoking drinks or seasoned professionals, the Bark & Barware Cocktail Smoker Kit is a must-have behind every commercial and home bar.
