Here’s our top picks for dear old dad this year:
Loca Loka is an innovative tequila that blends the vibrant cultures of India and Mexico. Launched in 2024, their Blanco Tequila received it’s first Gold medal at the prestigious 2025 San Francisco World Spirits Competition!
Tequilero David Ravandi has created El Luchador, a unique, artisanal portfolio of outstanding tequila expressions: Still Strength Blanco, Blanco, Reposado, and Anejo. The connection between tequila and lucha libre, two of Mexico’s most treasured cultural institutions, represents a long-standing tradition, one that inspired El Luchador.
Tequila Don Julio Ultima Reserva has been rested in oak, previously used to age bourbon, and finished in seasoned Madeira wine casks. To preserve this tequila and the exquisite agave piñas behind it, the team of experts at Tequila Don Julio implemented a Solera aging method, which combines and matures tequilas of different characteristics and ages, allowing Don Julio González’s final agave harvest to remain at the heart of this rare tequila.
Jeptha Creed Four Grain Bourbon (SRP: $49.99) is a bold, handcrafted whiskey made with 70% Bloody Butcher Corn, malted rye, wheat, and barley. It opens with floral notes and layers of cream candy, apricot, red berries, and brown sugar. The palate is rich and balanced with vanilla, nutmeg, clove, and toasted pecans, finishing long with vanilla mint and warm baking spices.
Aged in Oak Barrels for over 25 years. The House’s flagship, a very powerful, elegant and noble cognac with some notes of jammy fruit, orange marmalade, quince, pear and loads of vanilla. Très Vieux with its incredible generosity is the veritable bestseller of the house, the most awarded, and Christophe Fillioux’s personal favorite. A true sipping Cognac for connoisseurs.
100% malted barley from North East of France, where some of the world’s finest Scotch producers source their malt. Aging: Limousin oak barrels which had previously held Sauternes, Red Burgundy, and Sherry. Tasting notes: With a deep amber color, Bastille 1789 Single Malt proves to be a soft, rich, and complex whisky. It presents complex notes of fruit, sweet spices, and leather, ending with a slightly peaty finish. It reveals layers of character brought about by the triple cask aging.
The Gunpowder story starts with The Curious Mind of PJ Rigney, whose thirst for travel led him to 12 countries in far-flung corners around the world. Equally inspired by the wild, unspoiled nature surrounding the village of Drumshanbo in his native Ireland, PJ created The Shed Distillery where his unique, slow distillation process using medieval copper pot stills is taking ultra-premium gin to new heights. 12 botanicals, 9 countries, 1 curious adventure. Perfect for your ultimate Gin & Tonic.
Every year, Monkey 47 which is made with 47 carefully selected botanicals, goes on the hunt for a species rara – one extra special botanical to turn its signature Schwarzwald Dry Gin into a limited-edition Distiller’s Cut. In the 14th Distiller’s Cut edition, Monkey 47 unveiled Capparis, better known as capers or “Italian Caviar” from the Remote Island of Pantelleria in the Strait of Sicily, as the species rara.
Clonakilty’s “Galley Head” expression is a premium blend, which includes Clonakilty’s very own Single Pot Still Irish whiskey. This contributes a depth of flavor and complexity to the whiskey, delivering a viscous mouthfeel with gentle spices on the palate, typical of an Irish single pot still. Named after the iconic Galley Head Lighthouse on the Southwest coast of Ireland, this historical landmark overlooks their barley fields.
With a nod to Appalachian creativity, Ole Smoky took maraschino cherries and gave them a good, long soak in our 100 proof White Ligtnin’ moonshine. This delicious marriage culminated in an explosion of sweet heat in every perfectly infused cherry. And, once the cherries are gone, the remaining moonshine offers a lingering sweet nectar that blends into cherry cola or ginger ale like long lost lovers.
It’s like giving Dad his own personal bartender for the day—serving high-proof, high-quality Old-Fashioned cocktails with zero effort. Slow & Low’s 6-Year Limited Release is a bold, ready-to-pour cocktail made with straight rye whiskey, Demerara sugar, aromatic and orange bitters. At 100 proof, it’s smooth, strong, and seriously satisfying. Just pour over ice, add a garnish, and let Dad kick back in proper craft cocktail style.
The dark amber rum delights with rich fig and raisin notes, unfolding into ripe fruit, tropical spice, and sherry nuances. A subtle smoky oak finish with a hint of tobacco adds depth, making it a perfect Father’s Day gift for the discerning rum lover. Peruse the full Dos Maderas portfolio for other delicious options that are sure to impress Dad!
Discover the distinct flavors of the islands of Scotland with a swill of Lagavulin 16 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky. Our 86 proof whisky has the intense, full-bodied flavor reminiscent of a driftwood fire at dusk. The taste of dry peat smoke with strong maritime notes results in a complex dram that is complemented by a long, elegant finish. Distilled in Lagavulin, on the coast of Islay, centuries of distilling excellence are what make our malts so unique.
Broken Shed Vodka is a premium vodka from New Zealand, crafted from pure New Zealand spring water and distilled from whey—a sustainable, natural protein byproduct. It’s gluten-free, additive-free, and known for its clean, crisp taste and exceptionally smooth finish.
The perfect gift for a father figure embracing a zero-proof lifestyle or looking to limit alcohol his consumption, Seedlip Spice 94 provides a warm, aromatic blend of allspice & cardamom with fresh citrus top notes to balance the long bitter finish, ideal for mixing up an array of non-alcoholic cocktails.
