Alcohol Flask: Your Guide to Buying the Right One
1. What is a Alcohol Flask?
A flask is a stainless steel container that holds alcohol (whiskey, wine, spirits, liqueur). This flask has a smaller capacity than a water bottle. It's also smaller. This allows you to have the alcohol of your choice always at hand at any time of day, whether you're hiking, camping, or traveling. Your online wine merchant , Limonadier, offers guidance in purchasing your flask.
1.1 History
The stainless steel alcohol flask may now have a degrading image, an image where the person who had a flask was usually an alcoholic. In our opinion, this notion was developed by movies and series. In reality, the alcohol flask was used by high-ranking officers in the army, and among aristocrats as can be the whiskey glass . At that time, the price of the flask was more expensive because it was not made of steel but of silver to show the status of the person. It was during the prohibition that the stainless steel flask was used by bootleggers. Nowadays, although the alcohol flask suffers from a bad image, it is still used and appreciated for its low price and ease of use during a trip, camping or hiking.
1.2 Flasks sold on lemonade stands
Limonadier currently offers 17 flasks for sale, all made of stainless steel. The lining can also be leather or stainless steel. Our price range currently ranges from €19.99 to €31. Our collection is designed for all budgets while offering high quality. Our flasks can be used for:
- A campsite

- A move
- A hike
They can contain whiskey, rum, liqueur, and all spirits. But they can also contain wine, water, or other alcohols. However, our flasks cannot be used as beer mugs , because the bubbles contained in beer and other carbonated drinks are not compatible with a flask or a water bottle.
2. Additional accessories and maintenance of your flask
2.1 Use of vial accessories
Limonadier provides you with a stainless steel funnel with every purchase of a flask of alcohol delivered to you. Indeed, it's very difficult to fill your flask with whiskey without a funnel. It prevents your alcohol from dripping onto the leather of your flask and requiring cleaning.
Likewise, each box contains one or more shot glasses. This makes it easier for several people to share a flask. Each box available for delivery includes a funnel and one or more shot glasses.
2.2 Maintaining your bottle
Your alcohol flask is easy to clean thanks to its stainless steel coating. However, there are a few rules to always follow to ensure proper use:
- Rinse with hot water after each use to prevent the odor from settling into your flask.
- Avoid leaving your alcohol in the flask for more than 3 days, to prevent the smell from becoming embedded.
- When your flask is washed, you should store it without the cap.
The flasks sold at Limonadier are dishwasher-safe. The leather on your flasks can become dull over time. In this case, use a product like linseed oil to restore its color.
3. Alcohol Flask: Personalized Gift Ideas
3.1 Alcohol Flasks for Personalization
Whether you're buying for yourself or as a gift, a flask is a personal flask and, due to its portable nature, one that you keep close at hand. Personalizing it with engraving can make it unique to you. A stainless steel-lined flask is a product that can be personalized with engraving. However, a leather-lined flask is a product that cannot be personalized with engraving.
Unlike Amazon, Limonadier allows you to purchase your flask and personalize it with a phrase, word, or image. However, this product only applies to steel flasks, not leather flasks.
3.2 Product customization process
Please allow 5 working days in addition to the standard delivery time to have your flask laser engraved.
Laser engraving is charged in addition to the purchase price of the flask. Laser engraving allows for greater precision than hot stamping.
