Alcohol Gifting 101: How To Pick The Right Gift | Social Goat Skip to main content
Putting a little thought into gifting will surely go a long way.

Alcohol is a gift you can rarely go wrong with. It’s a classy and elegant gesture that will impress everyone from your boss to your in-laws. But there’s more to alcohol than picking the first bottle in sight and wrapping it with a fancy bow. You need to consider a bunch of things before purchasing it. After all, it is the thought that counts when it comes to gifting, doesn’t it?  

Here’s a guide to help you find a thoughtful gift that’ll be well-received. 

Don’t just get them something you like
You may think vodka makes for a sophisticated gift, but what if the recipient isn’t a vodka drinker in the first place? Even with the best intentions in mind and the right price tags, your gift might not be as appreciated as you’d have liked it to be.

Gift them something personal
You need to consider their personal preference before purchasing alcohol. Try and recollect what drink do they usually order at a bar or at get togethers. Do they prefer a whisky neat or do they pick a martini? Such knowledge will truly help you get them a thoughtful gift.

Research what you’re gifting

Does your recipient like a single malt whisky or a blended Scotch? Do they enjoy peaty flavours or gentler tones? Know more about these whisky terms here. Choose the right bottle for the right person and your gift will definitely stand out.

Introduce them to something new and intriguing 
This is a brilliant opportunity to get them to experiment with new flavour palates. For instance, if they like the Johnnie Walker whisky, gift them the newly launched Johnnie Walker White Walker whisky. If they’re ‘Game Of Thrones’ fans too, that’s all the more reason to give them this limited edition bottle. Now that’s the kind of gift that we’d like and we’re sure your special someone will too.
