SmokeTop Cocktail Smoker Kit (SmokeTop Starter Kit)

I did some substantial online research before deciding to purchase this particular smoke top. For many other smoke tops, I noted people were having issues making the top work or having a bad taste arising from a sealant on the wood which burned. However, the only issues noted for the Middleton were associated with the torch (I purchased my own separate torch) and folks trying to use an incorrect approach to lighting (using a candle burner or just a match, for example). I also talked to our local bartender, who makes the most amazing smoked old fashioned drinks - and they use this particular smoker brand/style. With that, I purchased this item - and from my first use it has worked great. You need to get the art of holding the torch the right distance from the smoke top, and using only a few chips at a time - but it generates a significant amount of wonderful smelling smoke in a short time, and imparts great flavor to my old fashioned. I am definitely a fan.Furthermore, when the wrong kind of chips were sent with my order, I contacted Middleton and they quickly responded and addressed the minor issue.

Easy to use, unique, and interesting method.A nice way to change up your drink.I've used it with Scotch and Manhattan'sGuests found it quite interesting and enjoyed the flavor it adds.Use just a pinch of the hardwood, as recommended by SmokeTop!This came with Cherry, I'm planning on buying some other hardwood flavors.A recommended product!Thanks to all the folks at SmokeTop!

Not only is the product amazing, but their customer service is top notch. I ordered this as a gift and chose the cherry sample but received oak instead. I reached out to the company about it and in less than a week, I had in my hands a full size cherry tin. Highly recommend!

Performs as advertised, only draw back is the price and size of chips given. Much better value for a less price directly from manufacturer website but they do not currently ship to Canada.

Absolutely love this, fits most glasses and smokes like no tomorrow.
