The Pinhook Holiday Gift Guide
Entertaining
We love the pure and unpretentious, the unfussy and well-crafted. Our gift guide brings a bourbon maker’s eye for the artisanal to a curated mix of gifts...for anyone on your list (including you), on any occasion or just because.
We don’t deny it: Bourbon is our love language...
Luigi Bormioli On The Rocks DOF Glasses (Set of 4)
Unstack this 4-pack of 13.5 oz. rocks glasses, mix yourself an Old Fashioned and drop in an ice ball. We’re mesmerized by how the light catches on the glass’s diamond pattern and shows off the rich warmth of Pinhook’s Kentucky Straight Bourbon. ($44.99)
Uncommon Goods’ Industrial Brass and Copper Drink Dispenser
Anything handcrafted makes us swoon, especially when it brings a little attitude to the home bar. This industrial drink dispenser, with a reclaimed wood base and brass spout, shows its edge with copper tubing that hugs the bottle (and aerates contents, too). Handmade in the United Kingdom– no stranger to the delights of a good pour. ($160)
Burrow’s Dram Bar Cart
Lithe but sturdy, low-maintenance but hardworking– a bar cart that can dress up or dress down, depending on the bartender and the occasion, and even dress for different roles: office station, cookbook catchall, plant cart, as needed. Like Pinhook, it’s got a go-anywhere attitude and signature versatility. ($295)
Smeg Soda Maker
Function meets form in the best way. With its clean curves, retro-inspired design, and intuitive front knob, this non-electric carbonator makes it easy to serve up sparkling water with style. The BPA-free Tritan™ Renew bottle is durable, dishwasher-safe, and made from responsibly sourced materials — a detail we appreciate. No plugs, no screens — just solid, smart design that does exactly what it should. A countertop staple that earns its place, Pinhook-style. ($200)
Simon Pearce Bar Tool Set - Acacia
Crafted exclusively for Simon Pearce, this trio of stainless steel essentials — a julep strainer, bar spoon, and double-sided jigger — is as handsome as it is hardworking. Each tool features a teardrop-shaped acacia wood handle that feels just right in hand. A smart addition to any home bar, and thanks to its travel-ready leather sheath, it’s just as easy to take on the road. Whether you’re mixing Old Fashioneds at home or cocktails by the cabin fire, this set makes mixology feel effortless and elevated. ($185)
Fellow’s Ode Brew Grinder
The coffeeshop comes to your kitchen. AeroPress®, pourover, French press, cold brew...whatever the mood, this grinder shows off its café prowess with a perfect cuppa every time. Just as Pinhook crafts each vintage to express the best whiskey, every time. ($399.95)
Chemex® 8-Cup Pour-Over Coffee Maker
Clean lines, rich brews. This glass pour-over is a design icon for a reason—simple, elegant, and endlessly reliable. The natural wood collar adds warmth (and grip), while the 8-cup capacity means there’s always enough to share. Bonus: It’s also great for filtering your own spirits for infusions. Like Pinhook’s approach to whiskey—pure, intentional, and better when savored. ($49)
JK Adams Maple Bar Cutting Board
Small but mighty. Crafted in Vermont from sustainably harvested maple, this bar board is the unsung hero of the home bar setup- perfect for slicing citrus, prepping garnishes, or serving a quick cheese moment. Durable, easy on knives, and handsome enough to leave out on the counter. It’s the kind of honest, well-made tool Pinhook keeps coming back to. ($19)
Hammer Stahl Bar Knife
Part workhorse, part showpiece. This bar knife brings together timeless design and utility in a way that just makes sense. With a full-tang, stainless steel blade and hand-polished rosewood handle, it’s weighted to feel right in your grip– whether you're slicing citrus, scoring herbs, or crafting the perfect garnish. The kind of quality and attention to detail Pinhook naturally respects. ($45)
Ranger Station Old Fashioned Candle
A candle that smells like your favorite bar– after hours, when the lights are low and the whiskey’s just right. Inspired by the classic cocktail, this soy wax candle blends rich notes of bourbon, citrus, and spice for a scent that’s smooth, warm, and quietly confident. Poured in a reusable cocktail glass (because details matter), it’s the kind of thoughtful craftsmanship Pinhook gravitates toward. ($39)
Original Grain Whiskey Espresso Barrel 46mm Watch
Crafted with reclaimed American oak bourbon barrels and espresso-plated stainless steel, this timepiece brings the depth of whiskey-making into everyday wear. Bold at 46mm, with a mineral crystal face and clean quartz movement, it’s as precise as it is distinctive. A reminder that great things- like great whiskey- take time, intention, and character. Pinhook approves. ($299)
FAZEEK’s Vice Versa Carafe – Clear + Amber
Equal parts sculpture and serveware, this glass-blown carafe knows how to make a statement. Its reversible, sphere-balanced design lets form and function play a little duet—pour from one end, display from the other. Handcrafted and hypnotic in clear and amber, it’s the kind of piece that turns everyday pours into small performances. ($129)
Not Another Bill’s Foldable Wooden Backgammon Set
A timeless pastime with a fresh twist—this foldable wooden backgammon board proves that playtime can be both classic and cool. Crafted from responsibly sourced wood and finished in a burst of bright, modern color, it’s as much a design piece as it is a game. Like Pinhook, it pairs tradition with a playful streak—refined, a little cheeky, and best enjoyed in good company. ($129)
