Frequently Asked Questions

General

What is TUBES Gifts?

We are a Dutch-based company that bottles and distributes wines and spirits by the glass in elegant 50 ml and 100 ml glass or recycled plastic tubes. In recent years, we have elevated what began as a sophisticated luxury wine gift into a multi-purpose tasting tool that benefits a wide variety of markets and businesses.

How do we bottle our products in tubes?

We have our proprietary state-of-the-art IFS and organic certified production facility in Hilversum, the Netherlands. We use patented technology that preserves the properties of the products by using an inert environment. By using liquid inert gas, the wines retain their full bouquet, flavor profile and mouthfeel during the fractionation process. We are one of the few companies worldwide that can (re)bottle wines and spirits in this fashion.

Where is TUBES Gifts located?

TUBES Gifts is a Dutch company located in Hilversum, Netherlands. Our address is Franciscusweg 14, 1216 SK Hilversum, the Netherlands. We work closely together with TUBES which produces and stores the tubes. This is also where we have housed our showroom, where the entire range of our products can be viewed.
