Top Five Halloween Liquor Gifts
Halloween is a once a year celebration that can be a fun way to come out of one’s comfort zone and dress up in a costume of their choosing.
One of our previous customers, Claire Davis, loves the holiday because it allows her to dress up as one of her favorite Disney characters and not feel weird about being in her thirties in doing so.
Davis, however, had a difficult decision to make. She was intending to attend a college roommate’s Halloween party and she wanted to provide a liquor gift that her former roommate will love.
Our representatives, always ready to offer excellent advice, provided her with the following list: the top five Halloween liquor gifts. These potential gifts of liquor included the following:
- Herradura Tequila Seleccion Suprema;
- Black Moth Truffle Flavored Vodka;
- Spirits of the Tsars Vodka;
- Dalmore King Alexander III Single Malt Scotch Whisky; and,
- Isle of Jura 21 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
While in no particular order, these liquor gifts have received high customer satisfaction as they are each excellent potential gifts of liquor.
The Best Liquor Gifts for Halloween
Tequila is production — such as in first potential liquor gift on our list, the Herradura Tequila Seleccion Suprema — adheres to strict government controls. To be classified as a Tequila, the spirit must be made from blue agave plants and contain 51 percent fermented agave juice.
Tequilla is first fermented, twice distilled in pot stills, then it is filtered through charcoal. Afterwards, it is either aged from one year to seven years, or bottled immediately.
The Herradura Tequila Seleccion Suprema, introduced in 1990, is one of the best Tequilla options on the market today. The following is from the product page, describing its unique taste:
Full-bodied, thick, creamy, and silky. Delicate smell of boiled agave, a dried wood presence with cinnamon, rose lips and a vanilla touch. It possesses a very dark amber color, showing its barrel aging. The taste confirms the boiled agave and the smooth wooden texture. Creamy to the palate and very subtle when swallowed. Very elegant.
The bottle is sized 750 ml. and is currently selling for $539.
The second recommended bottle on our list to Davis was the Black Moth Truffle Flavored Vodka.
While the Polish are credited by historians for the invention of vodka, the Russians who stole the recipe from them are credited with the name, vodka — translating to “dear little water.”
Vodka production begins with fermenting the carbohydrates, which are distilled in a patent still to the minimum 190 proof. The carbohydrates are then cut with distilled water between 80 proof to 100 proof. It is then filtered through charcoal — removing distinctive taste, character and aroma.
The Black Moth Truffle Flavored Vodka is filtered three times with Perigord truffles — a rare item also known as the “Black Diamond” of truffles. The potential liquor gift has a nutty, black pepper overtone juxtaposed with a fruity tropical aroma.
The bottle comes in a beautiful label that looks appropriate for Halloween.
It is sized at 750 ml and sold for $135.
The Spirits of the Tsars Vodka is a second recommended vodka gift that taste immaculate. The 500-year-old recipe is still used. It is produced in a limited quantity of 10,000 bottles per year — constantly sold out due to high demand.
The potential liquor gift is infused with caramelized sugar, fruits and vanilla. It is aged for three years in oak cognac barrels, which also provides it with a rich caramel color.
It is sized at 750 ml and priced for $365.
Finally, an excellent whisky gift delivery for Halloween are the Dalmore King Alexander III Single Malt Scotch Whisky and Isle of Jura 21 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
Whiskey production, such as for the previous two whiskeys mentioned, involves four steps, which are malting, fermenting, distilling and aging. The aging step is where the alcohol enters wooden barrels. The interaction between the liquor and wood provides a unique color, flavor and aroma.
The Dalmore King Alexander III Single Malt Scotch Whisky expertly blends sweet fruits with sweet undertones and spices that frolic within the mouth on each sip.
The bottle earned a gold medal in the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2009 and earned a rating of 94 from the Beverage Tasting Institute in the same year.
It is currently sold for $325.
The Isle of Jura 21 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky is also an excellent liquor gift that was presented to Davis.
The following is from the product page:
From its rich amber hue, to its sleek and stylish decanter, you will know this whisky is something worth savoring at first glance. Isle Of Jura 21 year is an extension from their 200th anniversary edition, celebrating 200 years of fine spirits and celebrations. Its complex flavor profile unravels brilliance over the tongue, offering a satisfying experience from the first glorious nose to the long and lingering finish. Warm spices, light sweetness, and fruit mingle together in the most luxurious of ways, combined with the distinctly wooded and smoky flavor of oak.
Aged for 21 years to allow each flavor to meld together brilliantly. This makes a wonderful gift for dinner parties, close friends who happen to be Scotch enthusiasts, or for anyone you hope to impress with your impeccable taste.
As the page implies, this is a superb selection for various occasions, which is why we recommended it to Davis.
