The INSISART Whiskey Smoker Kit uses a small charred-oak barrel to infuse an old fashioned or other spirit-forward cocktail with real wood smoke tableside. You light the wood chips, cap the glass or the barrel to trap the smoke, and let the drink take on a toasty, aromatic layer before serving. The kit includes the barrel, wood chips, and smoking accessories, and the charred barrel itself looks the part on a bar cart. Best fit: home bartenders, whiskey fans, and anyone shopping for a gift that turns making a drink into a small event. It uses an open flame and wood smoke, so use it on a heat-safe surface with ventilation.

What flavors of wood chips does it use?
It works with standard cocktail smoking wood chips such as oak, cherry, and hickory, each of which gives a slightly different smoky note.
