Cocktail Smoker Kit with Torch, Old Fashioned Smoker Kit for Bourbon Whiskey Drink, Smoker Infuser Kit with 4 Flavors Wood Chips, Birthday for Husband, Men, Dad (No Butane)

Ever since having my first smoked Old Fashioned a couple weeks ago, I've been researching cocktail smoker kits. I already owned a torch, so all I needed was this kit. It came in a nice box, including the 4 different flavored wood shavings, 10 metal screens and a small brush. Some reviews mentioned that the chimney was coated in polyurethane (which would obviously give off a very bad smoke effect), but mine is not. It seems that the company now puts the finish on the product first, THEN drills out the chimney, so there's no finish on the inside of the chimney. The opening is 1" from the top down, but then narrows at the bottom so the screen can rest on the lip on the inside. When I made my first few smoked drinks, I was really impressed at how much smoke the unit created--to the point where it was pouring out the side vents cut in the underside of the smoker, and I was using a very large glass! The unit produced ample smoke with very little effort and using just a small pinch of wood shavings each time. Of course, you have to point the flame of the torch directly down into the chimney and light all the shavings or it won't work. In my case, it worked like a CHARM, and the smoky flavor lingered for a long time after the smoke itself cleared, especially because I had added garnish to the glass before smoking it. It's exactly the effect that I bought this thing for. I've only used the "Whisky Oak" wood shavings so far, but I'm sure that won't matter too much. Bottom line is that this unit is well-made, works great, is half the price of the other one I was considering, and I'm super happy with my purchase. I will be giving this as a gift to all my Bourbon-loving friends until they all have one. Oh, and one other tip: If you're making a smoked Old Fashioned, try using pure maple syrup in place of sugar. Wow, what a drink. I'll need to limit myself to one every 3rd or 4th day--they are THAT good.

Love this product!! Very easy to use! I love the wood chip options it comes with. Works amazingly!

I bought this as a backup to my other smoker. It works decently, but it does not come with any sort of metal dish or protector to protect the smoker itself from charing. I can tell this smoker will have a very limited lifespan, but it was cheap. The woodchip packs are a definite plus.

Little present for my husband, it comes with a few flavors to try, it works and it is a fun little extra. Unfortunately you’ll need a little torch because doesn’t work with a regular lighter.

Great addition to the bar room. Perfect way to elevate my old fashions to the next level. Easy to use, smells great and a nice gift for the drinker in your family. Great price for a gift or surprise.

This smoker is awesome. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do and does it effortlessly. It’s small enough to store away without taking up too much space. I’d advise you to get a torch lighter that has some airflow behind it to help the process. If you use a genetic lighter, it won’t push through as good. Definitely worth the money!!

I bought this butane torch for my husband as a Christmas gift, but we didn’t try using it until February (thanks to Dry January). Unfortunately, when we went to fill it, we discovered that the intake valve is defective—it won’t allow butane to enter the reservoir. Instead, when we press the butane canister down to fill it as instructed, gas sprays everywhere, creating a major safety hazard. Since we’re now past the 30-day return window, we’re stuck with a faulty product. Very disappointed and wouldn’t buy from this company again.

This has been a nice addition to my drinks and give them that Smokey treat. Easy to use and have had no issues. I like that the kit game with no torch since I already had a torch for crème brulee which had kept me from purchasing one in the past.
