Valentine's Gifts for Scotch or Whiskey Drinkers

Valentine’s Gifts for Scotch or Whiskey Drinkers

This past spring I participated in my first Scotch Tasting.  It was all absolutely disgusting.  But I learned it is big business and there are tons of items to help enhance the experience!

Valentine’s Day Gifts for your husband or boyfriend can be tough to figure out.  Dads and sons can be even worse.  But it doesn’t have to be that way! If you want to get something besides candy and stuffed animals for the man in your life, there are plenty of other, more guy-friendly options to look out for. There are some gifts- unique or otherwise- that may be perfect for the man in your life.

For the next twenty days I will highlight one gift option every day in hopes that I can help you figure out the perfect gift.  And, if I am lucky, I can find it for you on sale!

Just Get Him The Bottle: I know this may seem like a simple idea but a quick trip to the liquor store may just be the perfect gift.   Find his normal label and then maybe go up in price $10 or $15 to give him a treat.  Or if you really want to go all out the one I hear about over and over is Johnnie Walker Blue.  That bottle will run over $100 pretty consistently.

Spirits Tasting Flights: Give your favorite whiskey aficionado the experience of tasting multiple types of Scotch from the comfort of his couch. This gift includes three small, 45 ml bottles of Scottish whisky and an easy-to-follow chart to help him demystify the flavor profiles (Light or rich? Smoky or delicate?) of each one.  For $50 you get two months- you select the items in the first month and he does in the second.

Glasses:  Checking online these Sun’s Tea (TM) 9 oz Strong Double Wall Manhattan Style old-fashioned Scotch/Whiskey Glasses, Set of 2 are a best seller for those not looking to go broke on glasses.  They generally are in the $16 ballpark.  And they are dishwasher and microwave safe!

globe decantar

Decantar: The variety of Decantars available is rivaled only by flavors of Oreos.  You can get everything from globes to sports teams logos.  You can get them personalized or disguised as something else.  Do some looking around online and I am sure you can find the perfect one!

chillin cubes

Whiskey Stones: Whiskey Stones are the perfect gift for the man in your life that loves a perfectly chilled single malt bourbon. These cubes work just like ice, except they don’t melt. So, the flavor of the whiskey is never compromised.  Which is important for those who actually LIKE the stuff.

ice cube ball

Ice Cube Trays: If your guy prefers real ice in his drinks getting him a special ice cube tray may be perfect.  The size and shape of the ice you use play a key role in how drinks taste. Small ice cubes tend to melt faster than larger cubes and will more quickly dilute mixed drinks.  A drink made with small cubes will taste best when it’s first served, but becomes watery losing flavor. Larger ice balls melt slower and release less water into a drink.
