The best corkscrews to bring into your home
Say wine, snacks or haute cuisine and the gourmands at online food magazine FavorFlav know where to drink, how to eat it and what to cook. This time our cheffies serve you: the nicest corkscrews to bring home.
The holidays are coming and that means on one hand more wine in many cases and on the other hand looking for nice gifts. Let's just say we have combined those two in our search for the nicest corkscrews. This way, opening that (special) bottle becomes just a bit more fun. Who are you giving such a (kinky) corkscrew as a gift?
Beetle corkscrew
With this special corkscrew in the shape of a beetle, you can easily pull the cork out of the bottle. And fun fact: when you pull the cork out, the wings go up. A beauty, this rainbow-colored beetle, which is also available in other colors, including silver and gold. DOIY Beetle corkscrew costs €19.90.
Beach Boy corkscrew
A bit hysterical, this sexy beach boy is, but hey, life has been gloomy enough lately, so a bit of cheerfulness can be used, right? And extra plus: you bring summer into your home. Beach Boy corkscrew costs €19.90 and is available at Blokker.
Alessi corkscrews
The little man of this cheerful corkscrew is a self-portrait of designer Alessandro Mendini. Another fun fact is that the mosaic print of the corkscrew is based on the small mausoleum in Ravenna, Italy. Alessi Galla Placida costs €67.99. And did you know that the female variant, Anna G. Galla Placidia, is based on Alessandro's secret love?
Bat corkscrew
Opening a bottle? Put this bat on it, spread its wings, and let it fly. This bat corkscrew costs €24.30, and is also suitable for beer or soft drink bottles.
Three times happy to see you
What is it with corkscrews in the shape of a penis? For enthusiasts, this nice trio consists of a bottle opener, bottle stopper, and a corkscrew. A great gift for that jovial study friend who just doesn't want to grow up or that teenage son who turns even redder when unwrapping this gift than these Happy Men. Happy Men Set costs €19.95.
Wine bottle corkscrew
This one is for true wine lovers: a corkscrew in the shape of a small wine bottle. This handy helper contains a crown cap opener and a corkscrew. And handy for people who always lose things: it also has a magnet, so you can hang it on the fridge. This way, it's always within reach. This wine bottle corkscrew costs €8.95.
Elephant corkscrew
Ever seen a little elephant that helps you pour a glass of wine? Probably not. But this corkscrew will help you, trust me. With its trunk, you can open a beer bottle or another bottle with a crown cap. And with the foldable curly tail, you can open a bottle of wine. The elephant corkscrew is made of beech wood and stainless steel and costs €15.95.
Pirate corkscrew
We personally find this amazing pirate the best in the lineup. Pirate Pete doesn't have a wooden leg, but a leg of cork, as soon as you uncork a bottle. pirate corkscrew costs €20.99.
Champagne corkscrew
There is even a corkscrew for champagne. With this champagne corkscrew (€18.71) you can open that bottle of bubbles in no time.
