The Barbarian Bar Tools—Exceptional Gadgets
My introduction to Barbarian Bar Tools came with the Simple Bar Tool. This multifunctional compact stainless steel contemporary styled efficient tool is designed with the following features:
BOTTLE OPENER — pop your favorite bottle of beer or soda
ZESTER — great for adding texture and flavor to every concoction
CHANNEL KNIFE — slicing citrus rind to garnish a beverage or your favorite dish
CAN TAB LIFTER — for those who don’t want to break their fingernails
CAN LANCE — for puncture of tin cans to allow quick and easy pouring.
This sells for only $17.95 and is designed to last.
After my experience with the Simple Bar Tool, I couldn’t resist trying the BARBARIAN. This is a whole different level of bar tools. This is not something I needed as I have these items individually, but the design and ease of having this well –designed multifunctional bar tool all in one, is convenient and amazing. It is designed with the following features:
CITRUS PRESS — great for squeezing limes, lemons and oranges
JIGGER measuring — .5oz/1oz/1.5oz
CORKSCREW & LEVER — for opening wine bottle
ZESTER — great for adding texture and flavor to any concoction
CHANNEL KNIFE — slicing citrus rind to garnish a beverage or your favorite dish
BOTTLE OPENER — pop open your favorite bottle of beer or soda
CAN LANCE — puncture tin cans to allow quick and easy pouring
1 inch KNIFE — for wide citrus garnish or bottle label removal
CITRUS KNIFE — perfect size for lemons, limes and oranges

These are great for as gifts for those home bartenders you know. You can go to the Barbarian Bar Tools website and order as well as get all sorts of recipes.
Vinturi Spirit for Your Spirits
With the holiday spirit upon us, it is time to enjoy your spirit like you never have. When I heard about Vinturi Spirit from Vinturi, I thought it sounded a little “far out.” But like fine wine benefits from aerating, so do your spirits.
Simply hold Vinturi over a glass and pour spirit through. Vinturi draws in and mixes the proper amount of air for the right amount of time, allowing your spirit to breathe instantly. You’ll notice a better bouquet, enhanced flavors and smoother finish.
The company says flavor enhancements have been confirmed with the following undiluted spirits: Scotch, Cognac, Port, Tequila, Whiskey, Bourbon, Vodka, Gin, Rum, Brandy, Sake, and Liqueurs.
They go on to say it releases the flavors and hidden nuances and overall flavor intensity increases.
I only tried it on rum, brandy and tequila.
