There’s absolutely nothing wrong with using drinking flasks to carry your libations. Well, other than the fact that people can recognize them as alcohol vessels with a single, brief glance. If you want to carry out your day-drinking in a more discreet manner, you’ll probably find an easier time using something like the Kole Thermal Flask instead.
Billed as “an elegant evolution in the art of drinking,” the flask looks more like a canister filled with premium cologne or body spray, making it less likely to attract unwanted attention. Whether you like to raise your mood with whiskey, rum, or a gross experimental mix of different spirits throughout the course of the day, this thing offers a more elegant way of keeping it nearby.
The Kole Thermal Flask measures 32 x 190 mm (d x h), about the size and shape of an abnormally thick cigar, with the ability to hold up to 2.4 fluid ounces of your chosen poison inside the insulated stainless steel core. Granted, that’s not a lot, but at this size, you can probably get away bringing a couple (or more) of this, especially if you have lots of space available in your pockets. Both ends and the accompanying screw-on cup are made from stainless steel, too, but the rest of the body is decked in a much more inviting wood finish (your choice of oak, walnut or mahogany). Since it’s insulated, it should alternately serve as an ideal way of carrying espresso around (up to four shots), so you can get a quick boost of coffee any time you need a strong hit throughout the day.
A Kickstarter campaign is currently running for the Kole Thermal Flask. Pledges to reserve a unit starts at $93.
