Let's face it, dads and whisky go together like peanut butter and jelly. It's a classic combination that never gets old. But let's be real, buying whisky for your dad isn't exactly groundbreaking. However, it's still a fail-proof gift idea. I mean, what else are you going to get him? Cigars? Well, actually, that's not a bad idea either...
But let's be honest, most of us are not whisky experts. Sure, we know it's made from distilled grains, and we may have heard terms like Single Malt, Highland, Lowland, Speyside, and Blended, but that doesn't make us Scotch connoisseurs. Thankfully, Aldi has made it easier for us by winning gold awards for three of their sub-£20 whiskies at the prestigious International Spirits Challenge. So now, we don't have to break the bank to get a quality bottle of whisky.
Speaking of affordable and quality whisky, let's talk about some gifting ideas for Father's Day. And don't worry, we won't suggest those trendy whisky stones that seem like a good idea, but in reality, just dilute your drink. We've got some better options for you.
First up, we have a genius five-piece whisky tasting set from That Boutique-Y Whisky Company. This company is known for its limited edition and cult-status bottles, so you know you'll be getting something special. The set includes a variety of styles, from Islay to Speyside to Highland, so your dad can try them all and discover his new favorite.
If you want to add a personal touch to your gift, check out Glenfiddich's online boutique, where you can personalize a bottle with a special message for your dad. Just make sure to place your order before June 12 to ensure it arrives on time.
But let's not forget about Red Bank Whisky by none other than Kiefer Sutherland. Yes, that Kiefer Sutherland from the iconic movie "Juror No.2." His new Canadian whisky is smooth, spicy, fruity, and caramelly, and pays tribute to the Red Bank where some of the country's finest whisky is made. And if you want to take it up a notch, try Glenmorangie's A Tale of Tokyo Whisky, which is aged in rare Japanese Mizunara oak barrels, giving it complex flavors that your dad will surely appreciate.
For the DIY-loving dad, we have a whisky smoker kit that allows him to infuse his drink with natural wood smoke for a smoky flavor. And for the dad who appreciates good glassware, we have a stunning decanter and tumbler set from LSA International. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but it's award-winning and made by skilled glassblowers, so you know it's worth it.
And if you want to switch things up and explore the world of bourbon, why not treat your dad to a guided tasting experience at Buffalo Trace's distillery in Covent Garden? Yes, you read that right, they have a distillery in the heart of London. And lastly, for the dad who loves a good wash bag, we have a limited edition Jack Daniels Gentleman Jack Whiskey wash bag that comes with a bottle of twice-mellowed bourbon. It's a steal, considering the bottle alone usually costs around £35.
So there you have it, our guide to buying the perfect gift for your whisky-loving dad this Father's Day. And if you want to stay updated on the latest trends, offers, and trusted reviews, sign up for our Shopping newsletter. Happy Father's Day!
