Father’s Day Gift Guide: Bulletproof Gifts for Scotch-loving Dads

We presume you already gave your old man a “#1 DAD” mug, and he’s not running out of novelty socks anytime soon, so let’s try something different and unique.

Celebrate your Scotch-loving Dad and the highly refined palate he’s passed down to you with this curated list of seven excellent Scotch gift ideas for Father's Day.

Blood may be thicker than water, but the bond formed over a perfectly gifted Spirit is the stuff soulmates are made of.

By giving your Dad a Flaviar Membership, he’ll get access to private bottlings, special editions, and rare gems.

 
He’ll get to choose from our curated selection of Tasting boxes and full-size bottles, take advantage of unlimited free shipping on qualifying orders, access The Vault full of one-percenter drams, join free live tasting events, earn perks through referrals, and have the best community that rates and reviews at his fingertips.

Noobs or pros, Flaviaristas also learn new stuff through tasting and content such as on-demand guided tastings, educating videos, in-depth articles, the School of Spirits, and so on. Gift him a flavorful journey into the World of Fine Spirits.

If you want to turn your dad into a Spirits pro, Flaviar’s Whiskey Exploration Kit 2022 is a great way to start!

This ultimate Whiskey tasting kit comes with twelve Whiskeys, curated by our tasting experts (Noah Rothbaum and David Wondrich!) and an exclusive on-demand tasting video for each expression!

Trying new things was never that easy!

The third act of Flaviar’s own peated Blended Malt: Son of a Peat Batch 03 is here to save your Dad from smooth and run-of-the-still Whiskies.

The twelvefold blend combines Scotches from Islay, Speyside, the Islands, and the Highlands to bring authentic smoky action, guns ablaze.

Cask strength, peaty as hell, and no-nonsense character. It's as authentic as they come. No fake-ass color either; it’s non-chill-filtered, hand-blended, hand-bottled, hand-sealed, and hand-labeled.

Not only is Son of a Peat III the Member's favorite, but it also won a Gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirit Competition 2021.

“This Scotch is like drinking a campfire! On the nose, it's smoky, but not too strong. Then, when you take a sip, it's like you've tapped an actual campfire like a keg. There's also a slight meat taste to it. While the flavor isn't overpowering, I was still able to taste the smoke in the morning!” - Neil

Give Dad the gift of taste with our Scotch tasting Boxes and spend some quality time and bonding with him with a premium Spirits tasting! Each box comes with a selection of drinks, tasting notes, and instructions on how to taste them.

We pick the drinks to showcase the flavor range of each category and make it even easier for him to find the one.

Now, suppose your Dad would like to join fellow Spirits aficionados and a tasting expert in exploring the box. In that case, there’s an ongoing Flaviar-Exclusive series of guided tastings called Unboxing Flavors.

With a live spirited debate or on-demand guided tasting, your Dad will learn how to taste all the layers and nuances in aromas and flavors, hear surprising histories and the secret trivia behind the unique flavors hidden in his Tasting Box.

He'll become a Spirits expert, refine his palate, and expand his Spirits selection in no time.

A bottle of booze has been a staple of gifts since 1388 (give or take a year), and it’s pretty much a safe bet.

But the one-of-a-kind man deserves a one-of-a-kind dram. We compiled a helpful selection of Scotch bottles that will make your Dad go “Jiminy Crickets!”

• Glen Grant 18 Year Old
• The Glenlivet 14 Year
• Aberlour 12 Year Old

Did we mention our “best under 100” selection which is always a good place to check out if you're looking for a nice bottle?

When you get a new bottle of his favorite poison, he will also need a cool vessel to pour it in and a classy envy-inducing coaster, right?

Elevate your Dad’s Spirits game with some trendy Flaviar Merch. From socks (in case he did run out of novelty socks) to cool flasks, pins, beret caps, and a nifty Dad tee, make sure his Whisky game is always on point!

And for those who want to broadcast their allegiance to excellence, there is a full-blown home bar that you can personalize with his name. May the best bar in town be at your Dad’s place!

Give the gift of ingenuity and imagination. Support small distilleries by gifting Dad a bottle from “The Top Shelf,” our collection of homegrown craft labels, and industry mavericks that aren’t afraid of tinkering with tradition. It’s a perfect gift for Dads who appreciate a bold Spirit.

We hope you enjoyed this list. We are 100% sure these boozy Father's Day gifts will make you his favorite. Happy Father's Day!
