Corkcicle Wine Chiller
----------------------
Keeping wines at just the right drinking temperature is a great
dilemma. Too cold and it could the vintner's uniquely
crafted complexities. Too warm and the flavors may take a back
seat to the alcohol. The answer to this perplexity? Corkcicle.
The first of its kind, Corkcicle is an innovative product
designed to keep your white wines chilled and bring your room
temperature reds down to a more suitable "cellar" temperature,
without the need for an ice bucket. Ice buckets often make white
wine too cold, ing the flavors and complexities of the wine,
not to mention they are messy and bulky. With Corkcicle, wines
are chilled from the inside of the bottle so you can enjoy
perfectly chilled wine every time.
Simple to use, just throw Corkcicle in the freezer for 90
minutes. After pouring the first glass of chilled white, drop it
in the bottle to maintain the perfect temperature. For reds, pour
a taste and insert Corkcicle for twelve minutes to lower the
temperature to the mid 60's. Made from BPA free plastic and
non-toxic freeze gel, Corkcicle has an elegant and innovative
design that keeps wine cool for a perfect glass every time.
Another perk about the Corkcicle? You can use it again and again.
No need to throw it away. Even after countless uses, it keeps
your whites and lighter chilled reds at a perfect drinking
temperature. And it even brings those heavier room temperature
reds down to a more suitable drinking temperature.
Use your Corkcicle at home, bring it to your next party or take
it on-the-go. This wine chiller is perfect for your next outdoor
barbeque, picnic or evening at home. The Corkcicle also
makes for the perfect gift for the wino in your life. Available
in original cork as well as six pop inspired colors, including
white, orange, pink, green, blue and yellow.

Our Story
---------
We make things that cool. We make cool things.
----------------------------------------------
Since we launched, we've heard quite a few stories on how we
first got the idea for the Corkcicle. And while we wish we'd been
inspired while sipping warmish wine in an icicle-rimmed Aspen
chalet, that's not the case. The truth is that Ben Hewitt,
Corkcicle's inventor and company founder, simply loves wine and
hated that there wasn't a better solution to bothersome wine
buckets.
In November 2011, Ben started tinkering in his garage, creating
prototype after prototype.
Aided with the marketing expertise of his friend and business
partner, Stephen Bruner, the idea quickly became a reality. More
to the point, Stephen brought a high design approach to the
product with the name and its icicle form to create our beloved
Corkcicle.
As the manufacturing process got underway, it became clear that
we needed a rainmaker to help deliver the product and get it
effectively introduced to the retail world. A close friend, Eric
Miller, VP of Sales at a Fortune 100 medical device company, came
on board and has been making it rain Corkcicles ever since.
Together, the three have built a brand that represents true
American ingenuity and captures the essence of the
entrepreneurial spirit. Proving that great ideas still matter and
that with hard work and great partners, anything's possible.
