make your own smoked spirits
ads another layer of unique flavor to my home whiskey and bourbon after dinner drinks! my wife now prefers smoked martinis ever since she tried it! with this glass dome, building and putting desired smoke onto our drinks becomes simple and easy. this always becomes a piece of conversation when preparing cocktails for our guests.works with cheese too but we have to leave the slices in the dome for a few minutes for the smoke flavor to get infused in the cheese just enough to pickup the smoky. definitely great to have!

4.5 Stars; works well, but it needs a little encouraging
The media could not be loaded. This is the fourth cocktail smoking device I own and the second dome, though I like this one far better than my first dome. That one is plastic and too short. This is glass, well-made, and tall, allowing me greater flexibility for what I smoke.The quality of this cloche is really good. The glass dome is solid and has no odd spots or defects. The wooden base is the right kind of heavy and smooth, and the top fits neatly within its grooves, though even with this, smoke escapes. It’s less smoke than with my other device, but it's something to note for people with sensitive smoke detectors or tight spaces.I hooked up the smoker from my other dome to this cloche to use it and attempted to smoke two things—a double cocktail in my mixing glass and a single cocktail in a DOF glass. In both cases, I saw the same problem: the smoke didn’t rise to fill the dome but sat at the bottom and collected. This meant it didn’t go far enough up the cloche to reach the liquid in either item.I found this result disappointing at first, but I discovered that if I quickly lifted or rocked the cloche (as shown in the second part of my video), some of the smoke dissipated, and the rest was forced higher so that it filled the entire space and reached my cocktails. Since smoke was already escaping from the cloche, taking this extra step didn’t add much more to my kitchen.After this extra step, the final cocktail was flavorful, well-smoked, and perfectly integrated. Moreover, it was worlds better than the overpowering smoked cocktails my shorter dome produces.I’m not entirely certain why the smoke sits at the bottom of the cloche without the extra agitation. It could be because the input hole for the smoker tube is toward the bottom, but I’ve seen this design in other domes where the smoke filled the space without issue. Another possibility is that my economical smoking device might be (unsurprisingly) underpowered. A brief internet search tends to back up the second theory; however, the higher-quality devices recommended to combat this issue are far more than I want to pay, so I feel as if rocking the cloche isn’t that bad of a trade-off for a casual user such as myself.Whatever the cause, the end result and quality matter most to me, and in both cases, this cloche is exactly what I wanted. Four and a half stars rounded up to five.

It works but….
Ascetically this works; looks great; and super convenient to just put your whiskey glass in for a smoked cocktail. The challenge is that the smoke exits from the bottom seal vs trapping within so it’s not as effective as just a simple smoker you place on top of your glass. Fix the leak; and this will be great.

Will use our smoking gun more now
We got a smoking gun a couple years ago but don't use it as much as we could - getting the setup with a container and plastic wrap and so forth was too much effort. I had been looking at the enclosures but they were about US$200 each. Too rich for my blood.Then I came across this. It's a nice glass cloche with a wooden base. There is an inlet port to attach the smoking gun. You put what you want to smoke on the base (the colder the better), cover it with the cloche, and fill with smoke. The smoke stays inside allowing more of the smoke to penetrate (unlike the glass top smokers). If you have guests, you can make a big presentation by presenting the cloche, lifting the lid, and allowing the smoke to dissipate revealing the smoked goodness.

Too Big or Not Big Enough, That Depends
If you're looking for something to make your smoked cocktails look more professional, this CAVIR Smoking Cloche will certainly help, but be prepared to do some experimenting to get the results you're looking for.The clear glass dome and wooden base make a nice impression on the bar, and the input port is an appropriate size for the typical smoker hose with a tapered fitting. The dome is tall enough to accommodate a large mixing glass or a 70 ml martini glass (see pics). A 100 ml "cocktail" glass is not going to fit, so you'll have to use the stemless variety or smoke your drinks in a different container and then pour them into the glass. However, this is where some experimenting and testing will be necessary.My smoker has both high and low fan settings, but even after running the fan on high for 3 minutes, I was only able to fill the cloche about two-thirds (see pic), meaning that only the rocks/Old Fashioned glass was within the smoke. Both the mixing glass and the martini glass fit too high in the dome. Since the smoke does not reach high enough, the contents of those containers would never get any smoke. I don't think this is the fault of the dome, but more an issue with how much air pressure my smoker can produce to push the smoke into the dome.Based on the experiments I've done so far, I think this dome would also work very well for making smoked salts or smoked garnishes, like "dirty cherries". A shallow dish or a brass coffee filter placed in the bottom of the dome should allow for plenty of smoke to reach the ingredients.Overall, I think this is a great addition to a home bar setup.

Gorgeous smoker, works for talisman consecration / feeding too
This works well for smoking a beverage, and also works well to use as a shrine device to contain smoke to consecrate or feed a talisman. If I want to keep incense going, I will place something small like a couple of wood blocks or coasters to lift up the glass just a tiny bit to keep oxygen flowing. Then the smoke stays mostly within for the consecrating and the burning can stay active for a long while.Highly recommended as it is beautiful too!.
