You’ve seen that meme that compares mothers day to fathers day right? Oh you haven’t, well here it is.
Father day gifts are usually filled with socks and briefs sets, and not much more. So let’s change that right now.
- Card & Bottle
Running out to get a card and a bottle of something nice is often the go to. Well at least make it a card that Dad will like. Thortful Cards have a nice deal with James Eadies Whisky for £44.99. Pick from their Father’s day cards and a bottle of James Eadies’ smooth and smoky blended Scotch whisky.
*We’d suggest putting a little Old Fashioned Cocktail recipe in the card to sweeten it.
Buy here - Mortlach 16 yr old
If you love your dad and normally take a dram or two from his collection, then this next one is for you *wink, wink*
From the Mortlach distillery we suggest their 16 year Old (If he really is the best Dad in the world then go all out on the 20 year Old) an unforgettable a rich sherried single malt Scotch. Available through The Whisky Exchange with the added service of engraving at a total cost of £89.95 (£10 for engraving).
Buy here - Santa Teresa 1796 Rum
Why not expand on his rum knowledge with a great edition to the collection with this Venezuelan honeyed Single Estate Rum. Made using the Solera process which is usually associated with wine, beer and brandy, where barrels are stacked with the eldest on top and the blender drawing a little from each age cask to create the bottling.
A delightful bottling that comes with an Old Fashioned kit (rum old fashioned’s are great by the way) at a steal of £51.95.
Buy here - Bowmore 15 year old
One for fire side sipping whilst Dad tends the BBQ on Father’s Day. Rich and smokey thanks to the Islay Peat and Sherry cask maturation. A favourite amongst the Glassmates, this just keeps on giving with every last pour and probably won’t last beyond Father’s Day.
We found a nice little deal that includes a decanter for £61.50
Buy here - Tamdhu London Heathrow Airport Exclusive
Before you side us, we haven’t lost the plot and we know that airports are closed, and even they weren’t booking a flight just to go through Heathrow is lunacy. But some good has come of the pandemic. You can order this Airport Exclusive online for home delivery.
The 15 year old Speyside with it’s long rich finish and fruit bomb nose is worth penny of the £249
Buy here - 20 Whiskies that changed the world tasting set
One for the Whisky know-it-all Dad here. The Whisky Exchange have curated 20 whiskies from the past few decades that they believe have changed the world of whisky (not the world as a whole). This tasting set features drams from Macallan to Lagavulin. In the set you will find 20 drams, a tasting book, and a pair of perfect measure tasting glasses.
Priced at £160
Buy here - Apinal Of London double hip flask
Real Dad’s accessorise? Ok we’re not sure that’s a thing or not, but we’re going to run with it until told otherwise. And as far a drinks accessories go for on the move, nothing says show off like a hip flask filled with something amazing to show off to others. Aspinal have wrapped this hip flask in premium leather, and gone and made it a dual flask, so you can carry not one, but 2 of your favourites everywhere with you.
