Engraving process
Engraving refers to the etching of a message onto the surface of the bottle. This creates a permanent mark that is crisp and precise, making it ideal for personalizing bottles for gifts, events, or branding purposes. Choose to engrave names, messages, greetings, numbers, logos and more. For custom artwork like logos, we require artwork files in a .jpg or .png format. Our concierge team will walk you through all engraving options.
How it works
Choose a bottle and a message
Choose your favorite bottle. Personalize it engraving names, messages, greetings, numbers, logos and more. If you need to order in bulk for an event, reach out to our team for concierge one-on-one assistance!
Personalize it!
Laser engraving on glass creates a frosted, matte appearance where the laser removes a small portion of the glass surface. This makes the engraved area appear cloudy or opaque compared to the surrounding clear glass.
Get it delivered straight to your door
Delivery time may vary based on location and stock availability. Typically, bulk orders with engraved bottles may take up to 10 business days for delivery. Our concierge team will walk you through it all!
How long does the engraving process take?
Due to the overwhelming popularity of our engravable bottles, please note it may take up to 10 business days to process your order, depending on the time of year. Please order as early as possible ahead of your desired delivery date! We suggest 2 weeks in advance.
What can I engrave?
Many of our products can be personalized for your special occasion! When you select a product to engrave on The Bar, you will be able to engrave 15 characters per line, maximum of 2 lines. Pro tip! Remember to proof your engraved message prior to placing your order! Because once an engraving order is placed, it cannot be changed.

If you're going the non-engravable route, give them their favorite spirit! For something a little more personalized, send an engraved, top shelf bottle. If they love tequila, customize a bottle of Don Julio Tequila, or if whiskey or scotch is their preferred sip, try an engraved bottle of Johnnie Walker or Lagavulin.
Best whiskey to give as a gift
A limited edition Scotch Whiskey is perfect for collectors and aficionados alike, such Johnnie Walker Blue Label Lunar New Year Limited Edition bottles, Lagavulin Offerman Edition or a Crown Royal Extra Rare 31 Year Old Blended Canadian Whisky. A timeless classic always makes a great gift, like Johnnie Walker Black Label Blended Scotch Whisky, Talisker 18 Year Old or Oban 14 Year Old.
Good bourbon to give as a gift
When it comes to gifting bourbon, Bulleit is always an easy choice. If you are looking to introduce their palate to something a little different, gift I.W. Harper 15 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey or George Dickel Barrel Select Whisky.
Best tequila to give as a gift
When it comes to gifting tequila, something aged and easy to sip is a perfect present. Don Julio 1942 Añejo Tequila is always a good option. If you want to go above and beyond, try Don Julio Ultima Reserva Extra Añejo Tequila. For something uniquely flavored, Don Julio Alma Miel Tequila, Don Julio Primavera Tequila or Don Julio Tequila Rosado Reposado are sure to surprise and delight.
