Bottle packaging – how to wrap alcohol for a gift?

Many people give alcohol as a gift to friends and family or as a business present. How should alcohol be packaged as a gift in order to make it look good and attractive?

With winter and the holidays approaching, it is time to think about gifts, especially business gifts. What should you give your customers and business partners to thank them for their cooperation over the past year? A bottle of good liquor would be a very good solution, but how to pack the alcohol nicely?

Alcohol as a gift – is it a good idea?

Alcohol is a popular gift, but is it really a good idea? Yes, it is a safe gift and you can give it, except if you know that someone doesn’t drink alcohol – then it really won’t be a good gift. On the other hand, if someone doesn’t drink alcohol but the giver doesn’t know about it, it’s not a gaffe – you can always pass the alcohol on or use it at a party.

Of course, it is very important that it is good alcohol, rather high-end, e.g. a good wine/whisky/cognac, or perhaps a set of fine craft beers or champagne, with which the recipient can make a New Year’s toast. Gift chosen, but how to package the alcohol for the gift?
