Yes its that time. Without further ado, here are some kick ass ideas for Dad this Fathers Day. Because, seriously, who really wants another tie?
Tullamore Dew is a great Irish whiskey and a perfect way to begin to explore the magic that is Irish whiskey. One of the oldest and most respected brands in Ireland, Tullamore Dew is always a great choice.
Partida Tequila is one of my favorite tequilas. The blanco shows off just how good artisan tequila can really be. This is a tequila for dad to sit and savor, save tequila poppers for the cheap stuff.
Karlsson’s vodka. My idea of being in hell is being stuck in a bar with nothing but bad vodka. Luckily, brands like Karlsson’s are taking vodka to new heights. If Dad is a vodka man, do not miss out on giving him this one.
Gosling’s Black Seal rum is Bermuda’s finest. What better drink is there during the month of June than a Dark & Stormy? Black Seal rum is the key.
Southern Comfort Cherry is what I like to refer to as “fishing trip” booze. I may not drink it regularly, but sometimes you want something easy when you go fishing. And SoCo Cherry and Coke is perfect for a warm day on the lake.
Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve. Nine year old world class single barrel bourbon. Bourbon doesn’t get much better than this. Perhaps the easiest decision to make if Dad is a bourbon man.
Laphraoig 18 single malt scotch is a big, Islay scotch, but with more age, depth and finesse. A complex dram that Dad will appreciate all year long.
Conjure cognac is a great entry point into the world of cognac. If Dad is just beginning to explore brandies and cognacs, start him with Conjure.
Pierre Ferrand cognacs are for true cognac afficionados. If Dad knows cognac, Pierre Ferrand will be treasured.
Spicebox is a new Canadian spiced whisky. A nice, light sipper, Spicebox is best for dads who like Captain Morgan and other spiced products.
Plantation rum makes some great sipping rums. If Dad is a rum in a snifter kind of guy, a bottle of Plantation will be appreciated.
Plymouth gin
is for the sophisticated martini drinking Dad in your life. Forget shaken not stirred, Dad knows the proper way to make a Plymouth martini involves stirring and vermouth. A classic and unique gift for Dad this year.
