What’s the Perfect Gift for Dad? Here’s What We Think

 

Need a gift for that special someone (could be yourself 😀)??

Father’s Day is coming up and we’re here to help. We know that it’s hard to find that perfect gift for dad. But luckily for you, we know our whisky…. so you’re in safe hands. Also, don’t forget to finish this article because we have a special announcement at the bottom.

So to help you choose, we came up with 3 categories to make things a bit easier: The Experts Picks, Whisky sets, and Other Cool (non-whisky) Gifts for him to enjoy!

So let’s get started.

The Expert’s Picks

These are bottles that we would give to our own fathers. They were chosen by our resident SMPH whisky experts based off of the quality of the whisky and the presentation to go along with it. These are whiskies that any father would be proud to showcase on his shelf or drink on a special occasion!

Glenmorangie Signet

This single malt whisky is something that you definitely want to have in your collection. The Glenmorangie Signet comes in a beautiful box, packaging, solid heavy cap, and lavish bottle design. It’s one of those bottles that you know is expensive just by looking at it.

However, the design is only half the battle. What makes the Glenmorangie Signet so special is the juice that comes inside.

The Glenmorangie Signet Whisky is so rare that they have to close down the whole distillery for one week every year. They call it the Signet Week and for seven days each year, the Glenmorangie distillery only produces the ‘chocolate malt’ and halts production on all other whiskies, a highly unusual occurrence in the whisky industry.

The Glenmorangie Signet is also the recipient of numerous industry awards such as the: 2016 IWC Whisky of the Year and the 2018 SF Spirits Awards Double Gold Winner. Truly a must-have for any collection!

Cost: P12,999
