Whiskey & Bourbon Gifts
A whiskey drinker has opinions about ice, which is the easiest place to start. Soapstone stones and stainless steel cubes chill a pour without melting into it, and Stircicles do the same job as a swizzle stick for anything that needs stirring.

Questions
Whiskey stones or stainless steel cubes?
Both chill without diluting the drink. The Savor Stones are natural soapstone with nothing sealed inside; the steel cubes have a chilling gel sealed inside. Both are reusable: rinse them and put them back in the freezer.
What's a good gift for a bourbon lover under $30?
Soapstone Savor Stones ($21), Stainless Steel Cubes ($24.50), Stircicles ($27) or a flask ($29 to $31). A double jigger ($10) is the cheapest upgrade to their home bar.
Do the Whirlwind glasses really spin?
Yes. The rounded, weighted base lets each glass turn when you touch it and always settle upright, and the slow spin blends the drink.
