What the Producer Says
At the crossroads of heritage and innovation comes a new signature expression from Bib & Tucker Small Batch Bourbon: Gold Roast, a 6-Year Tennessee Whiskey artfully finished with whole roasted Arabica coffee beans using a refined cold extraction method. Gold Roast Bourbon is a celebration of two time-honored American traditions. Inspired by the turn of the century, when bourbon and coffee were rituals of connection, comfort, and craft, this release reimagines those traditions for the modern drinker.
Kit includes:
- Bottle of Bib & Tucker Gold Roast Bourbon
- Custom Gold Roast Blend Coffee from Muletown Coffee Roasters
- Bib & Tucker Leather Coasters
- Premium Glassware
What Gary Says
I reviewed Bib & Tucker Gold Roast Bourbon just a few months back, and really enjoyed it. Many producers start putting together gift box sets just in time for the holidays – and I receive offers to try them and share reviews. The vast majority of the time I pass – not because I think they’re not good products, but often the boxes are simply the whiskey – and some branded glassware; maybe a gimmick or two. They sell the idea of generosity without delivering much real value.
Not this one.
The Bib & Tucker Gold Roast Provisions Parcel surprised me—in the best way.
What’s Inside the Box
- A bottle of Gold Roast Bourbon – six-year Tennessee small-batch, finished with cold-extracted Arabica coffee beans
- A bag of the same roasted coffee used to finish the bourbon (THIS was my main curiosity!)
- Two heavy crystal tumblers (my parcel had Nachtmann Noblesse glasses, 13.6 oz—solid in the hand)
- Leather coasters to support those hefty tumblers
- Nicely presented gift box with honeycomb flex paper wrapping the bottle (great protection, and a nice visual touch)
Why This Is Worth It
- The bourbon: This isn’t a gimmick-finish. The coffee integration is real. Check out my review on it, but it’s solid (and in fact the more I sipped it, the more I liked it).
- The coffee: This was a huge component for me. Imagine a tasting experience where a whiskey is finished in some cask (sherry, wine, etc), and you could get a gift box with a small taste of THAT product! I would be all over that! This adds a layer of storytelling to the whole experience, and invites you to brew, sit down, sip, compare, and most of all – enjoy. And how is it? Really nice, and can see why it was selected – medium roast with notes of vanilla and cocoa; complements the bourbon quite well (which I knew from the whiskey itself)!
- The packaging: Strong. The bottle’s honeycomb wrap adds texture and substance—way more thoughtful than the usual molded foam, bubble wrap, or heaven forbid packing peanuts.
- The barware: Let’s talk about that glass. Whether neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail, I love the way this tumbler feels in my hand. There’s real presence here. You know when you’re holding it, and it looks distinguished.
- The extras: Leather coasters are a classy touch.
I made the Gold Roast Old Fashioned from Bib & Tucker’s recipe here and it worked beautifully. That coffee edge plays well with bitters and a twist. Stirred it up, dropped in a couple of rocks, and let that glass do its thing. Heavy in the hand, light on the lip. Everything I want in an end-of-day pour (and yes, if it looks like the fill line is high – I made a double; don’t judge me).
Final Word
In a crowded field of bourbon gift sets, this one doesn’t just pass muster—it stands out. The whiskey is legit. The coffee is just plain fun to experience that connection. The packaging is intentional – including being stylish and functional. The accessories are high quality. It doesn’t scream for attention; it just shows up ready to impress – and it did that!
