Father’s Day 2014 – Our Favourite Gift Ideas
Father’s Day falls on Sunday 15th June and once again we’re faced with the age-old question: what on earth can we buy? Dads always seem to be the hardest people to choose gifts for, but hopefully one of these ideas will hit the spot.
Remember, we are always happy to provide more suggestions based on your father’s or father figure’s individual hobbies and interests. Just get in touch and we’ll get on the case.
Why not have a look at our June Events blog if you think he’d prefer a gig, show or sporting event?
Hotel Chocolat Father’s Day Collection
Chocolate and port, what a great combination. This Father’s Day gift set from Hotel Chocolat includes a miniature bottle of Special Reserve Tawny Port, a mini hazelnut buche, a high cocoa white nano slab, 70% dark and nibs nano slab, 50% milk fruit and nut nano slab and a smooth praline trio. Yum! There’s nothing to say you can’t help him enjoy it…
Engraved Johnnie Walker Blue Label
As long as you place your order by 11am on 11th June, you could have a personalised bottle of the rarest Johnnie Walker blend to hand over on Father’s Day. It’s won more gold medals for excellence than any other premium whisky, making it the perfect gift for the whisky connoisseur. If this particular blend is out of budget, or your father prefers a milder whisky, have a look at other engravable bottles and gifts on offer.
If the man you are buying for is a sentimental soul, he’ll love this personalised wooden keyring. With the month of birth engraved at the top of the calendar and the day circled, the gift is finished off with the message “The Day You Became My….” It’s up to you to choose between Dad, Daddy, Father, Pops…whatever term he’s used to!
Containing all of the herbs and spices he’ll need to create his own feast, we love this curry box from The Spicery. This special edition kit includes much of what you need to cook Bombay mix, beer battered onion bhajis, green chilli pakora, cucumber raita, tamarind chutney, spicy tomato chutney and bhuna. His favourite curry will taste even better made from scratch. If you think he’ll really love the idea, sign him up for the Friday Night Curry subscription.
What a fantastic gift for the DIY-loving dad! It is one that will either be loved or hated, but we’re sure you know your own dad’s tastes well enough to decide if it’s a good idea. The hand-engraved claw hammer will be finished with a natural Linseed Oil finish, giving him a reminder of how much he is loved every time he uses it.
After all he has done for you over the years, doesn’t your father deserve some time to himself? Whatever he would like to do, a gift voucher for an hour or two of our time could see him finally able to organise those things he keeps meaning to do – a VIP experience, dine at an outstanding restaurant or do pretty much anything else he can dream of.
