Father’s Day Gifts For Dad

Great Dads Matter!

Show your Father how much you care by toasting to him with a spirit that’s perfectly curated for him.

Here are our recommendations for the bottle Dad is sure to love based on his personality and fatherhood philosophy. Plus, a companion cocktail.

The Legend

Your dad is a legend. Stories are told about him. Your friends have a nickname for him. He’s known around town for being the top-notch person he is. He’s a man to be admired, simply legendary.

Two whiskey legends, Jim Beam’s master distiller, Fred Noe, and Suntory Whisky’s chief blender, Shinji Fukuyo, combined their backgrounds and expertise to create a legendary bourbon whiskey fitting for dad: Legent. Familial and multi-generation traditions is the backbone of both Japanese and Kentucky Bourbon culture. It’s the perfect bottle for Dad, the man they’ll talk about for generations to come.

Blossom Old Fashioned

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ parts Legent Bourbon
  • ½ part Sweet Vermouth
  • ¼ part Maraschino Liqueur
  • 2 dashes Bitters
  • Fresh Orange Peel and Nori Strip, for garnish

Preparation

  1. Stir all ingredients with ice and strain over fresh ice
  2. Express the orange peel over the drink and garnish with a nori strip

The Big Softy

Your dad is tough and strong on the outside, but when it comes to his kids, he’s a softy. He drops everything to help out and nothing makes him feel more appreciated than a big hug.

Give the big guy a bottle of Teremana Blanco. Teremana means spirit of the earth. The Rock created this tequila with an ethos to take care of what and who we love. Much like dad.

Teremana Sunrise

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz Teremana Blanco
  • 3 oz Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
  • Drizzle of Pineapple or Passion Fruit Syrup (or splash Pineapple juice)

Preparation

  1. Build in a rocks glass with ice
  2. Garnish with a half orange wheel

The Adventure-Seeking Dad

Whether it’s packing up the car for an epic road trip, going  hunting, or drinking a cocktail on a beach, Dad is always up for an adventure.

Celebrate his adventurous spirit with a limited edition bottle of Lagavulin Offerman Edition Caribbean Rum Cask Finish. TV star Nick Offerman has traveled the world and sampled many attempts at pleasing nectars, but it is solely this distillation of Islay, a tiny, charismatic Scottish Isle, that has claimed his palate. This 11-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky was finished for a little over 8 months in casks that previously held Caribbean Rum, infusing a symphony of sweet smoke that marries the notes of the tropics with the peaty elixir of Islay.

Lagavulin Offerman Edition Caribbean Rum Cask

Ingredients

  • Lagavulin Offerman Edition Caribbean Rum Cask Edition

Preparation

  1. Simply pour into a snifter
  2. Sip and enjoy!

The Sports Dad

He never missed one of your games, and jumps at the chance to attend any sporting event, be it the NBA championship game or Tuesday night Little League.

His competitive and supportive spirit deserves the Spirit of the NBA, Hennessy. In 1817, James Hennessy created a unique blend for the future King George IV of England. From the encounter of these two visionaries, was born the first Hennessy “Very Superior Old Pale,” know today as Hennessy V.S.O.P.

 

Hennessy Sonic

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz Hennessy V.S.O.P
  • 2 oz Soda Water or Sparkling Water
  • 2 oz Tonic water
  • 3 Orange Wheels or an Orange twist

Preparation

  1. Add Hennessy V.S.O.P into a tumbler full of ice
  2. Add soda water
  3. Top up with tonic water
  4. Garnish with orange

The Cool Dad

Because your Dad is always the coolest cat in the room. He’s the trendsetter who forges his own path and doesn’t care about what people think.

Gift him a bottle of Casamigos Blanco for Father’s Day, because who’s cooler than Clooney and what’s more on fire than Tequila? We know the answer to that: Dad.

Papa’s Paloma

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Casamigos Blanco
  • .5 oz Fresh Lime Juice
  • .25 oz Tres Agaves Agave Nectar
  • Sparkling Grapefruit Soda

Preparation

  1. Shake Tequila, Lime and Agave
  2. Serve in a half rimmed highball with a mix of salt and chili powder
  3. Top with Sparkling Grapefruit Soda
  4. Garnish with a grapefruit wedge

The Wisconsin Proud Dad

He’s a Wisconsin man through and through, born and bred, loves the Brewers, the Bucks and the Pack. He doesn’t miss a Summerfest, blocks out a week on his calendar for the State Fair and bleeds Badger Red.

He’s a busy man, but wouldn’t have it any other way. So give him something crafted in Wisconsin that he can enjoy anytime with no fuss. Milwaukee’s own Central Standard Craft Distillery has a line of Pour Ready cocktails that he’ll  appreciate sipping on the patio or deck (that he built himself, of course): Bourbon Peach Smash, Bourbon Lemon Smash, Cherry Vodka Lemonade, Cherry Vodka Mule, or the nostalgic: Rocket Pop.

 

They did all the mixology. No recipe needed.

 

Central Standard Bourbon Peach Smash RTD

A classic Bourbon Smash cocktail made with Red Cabin Bourbon combined with ripe, juicy peaches. Just pour over ice and serve.

The Sweet Dad with a Sweet Tooth

Your dad is the man who wears his heart on his sleeve. A sweet man to all who know him and the guy who snuck you treats when you were a kid.

The Ride or Die Dad

He has your back. Always, in all ways. You’ve been through a lot together and he has been by your side through it all. All the milestones, bad decisions, successes, and failures. He’s seen you at your best and your worst and has loved you through it all.

Best buds. Dos Hombres. We’re sure the relationship with your dad is a bit less dramatic than Walter White’s & Jesse Pinkman, but you can still toast to your solid relationship with Dos Hombres Mezcal.

The Dad Who’s a LIttle Extra

He’s a man who enjoys the finer things in life. For himself and his family, he spares no expense and is a bit “extra”. A father who expects you to rise to the occasion and celebrate life with flair and sophistication.

There might not be a drink more sophisticated than a Schwarzendorff Martini made with Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Dry Gin. This gin is made with 47 handpicked ingredients from the Black Forest. Its complexity and quality is unrivaled and a little bit extra… just like your Father.
