It's no secret that mothers seem to get all the love on their special day, while fathers often get the short end of the stick. However, despite this common belief, people still shell out quite a bit of cash for Father's Day. In fact, the National Retail Federation reports that a whopping $22.4 billion is expected to be spent on gifts for dads this year. While this may be almost $11 billion less than what is spent on Mother's Day, it's still a significant amount. And let's not forget the running joke that Father's Day gifts are usually last-minute purchases. While this may be true for some, BLACK ENTERPRISE has identified five top-notch spirit brands that are perfect for those of us who may have forgotten to pick out a gift ahead of time.
First up, we have Uncle Nearest, a brand that specializes in rye whiskey. If your dad is a whiskey lover, he'll be sure to appreciate the premium-aged 1856, the small batch 1886, or the straight rye whiskey. And if you really want to impress him, you can even grab one of their cocktail kits, which includes mixers and bitters.
Next, we have DonQ, a Puerto Rican rum brand that offers a range of options to suit your dad's taste. Whether he prefers the Reserva 7, Don Q Cristal, or Don Q Piña, each of these rums has a unique flavor that is sure to please. And for those dads who are watching their figure, the Don Q Piña is a clear rum that is perfect for those "skinny" diets.
For the more refined fathers out there, Brough Brothers Bourbon is the way to go. This Black-owned brand from Kentucky offers a bourbon that boasts hints of floral and fruit flavors. And if you happen to be in the area, you can even take your dad on a tour of their distillery.
And finally, for those dads who enjoy the finer things in life, there's Armand De Brignac Ace of Spades. This premium champagne brand, famously purchased by Jay-Z in 2014, is the epitome of luxury. With a price tag of $300 per bottle, this bubbly brut is sure to make a lasting impression on your father.
