Christmas gifts

[Grappa-Gringo]

Just finished off packing up some give away gifts for family-- bottled, corked and sealed with wax and labelled. Nocino (wall nut liquor) Ginger liquor and Apple Pie Moonshine. I'll add a dried apple slice on a ribbon around the neck of the APM for a nice touch.

Fine looking gifts! Are those 375ml bottles or 750?

[Setsumi]

i will take a nocino, thank you very much.

[8Ball]

Very nice. Where did you find the wax?

[Grappa-Gringo]

DEPLORABLE-- They are 375's.... got them at a home brew shop close by my place

SETSUMI--- Shipping would be at a premium...*smile*

8Ball--- I had the wax from several years ago...but I picked it up online https://www.kingswax.com/contact.html or try an arts store...they may carry it.

I think waxing the bottles really puts a nice touch on them. Those will make great gifts. Back in my younger days, I would make up gift buckets of a 6 pack of homebrew, some smoked salmon, and smoked cheese for my closest friends.
I still gift away a lot of my smoked cheese, but next year, I hope to be able to gift them bottles of my single malt.

Made a gift for a friend. Not for Christmas but for his 40th birthday.

Nothing as fancy as the other posts here.

Coffee liqueur, gin, spiced rum - in a holder I made from pallet wood (he owns a build-ware business and used a lot of pallet wood in the showroom and office.

Some fine looking presents there, anyone who gets any of the above should consider themselves very fortunate to know a distiller. I also doubt that many who get one will understand just how many hours of work was involved in the making of that bottle.
Wish I was half as organized as you guys are with labels , mostly my friends get an unmarked bottle.

Looking through the barrel stack and noticed another rum barrel from 2016, a little 1 gal Gibbs, the angles took quite a bit but left me a good drop. Not sure if I'll gift these or fill my own stocking with them Tasting a bit and wow, a bit of age does wonders.

OV, I really like the simplicity of your lables.

Started a new "tradition" a few years ago.
"Decorating the tree"

Not many places you can get an ornament for about $2.00 and unfortunately, don't have any of my own to hang.

Plus, at least in years past, following Christmas Eve services and dinner with the family, we could "drink the tree".

Looks like that part of it, at least with other family members, will be postponed until, hopefully, next year.

Merry Christmas All!

Just slightly off topic, but...

My wife said, 'What do you want for your birthday?' (Eightieth).
And I said, 'It is not until March, give me a little time to think about it...'
Must be something a bit special...

And then she said, 'We do have to think about your birthday. Where can we celebrate? Who do you want to be there?'

Wasn't about a present at all!!!!
