Gifts for Interns - Tote Bags for Sommeliers
You know wine better than most people know themselves, guide guests through intimidating lists, and somehow don't roll your eyes when they order 'the house red.'
Why This Works
Sommelier work is expertise meets hospitality. You make wine accessible while fighting the pretentious stereotype.
Your commute bag is a daily statement piece whether you like it or not. Instead of a boring black laptop bag or a free tote from a conference, why not carry something that makes people on the train do a double-take? These bags hold everything you need while broadcasting exactly how you feel about Monday mornings.
