Peeled Snacks Fruit Picks Variety Pack
Holy holy – these dried fruit and nut packs are delicious. They taste so fresh, much more lively than their bulk-bin counterparts. Peeled even wraps the nuts separately so they don’t get all soggy in the packet.
Great to keep in the car for an an emergency blood sugar dip, and there are so many flavor options. The pears are my favorite, but the Shock-olate (pears, apricots, almonds, walnuts & dark chocolate) is worth trying too.

Tuscan Barbecue Polenta Chips
As it turns out, deep-fried polenta is a great idea. Salty, crispy, delicious, with a slight corn-nut aftertaste. The company sent a big box of snacks, and these were gone immediately.
While you’re at it, try their avocado-oil fried potato chips. Almost makes you feel virtuous about eating chips.

Del Maguey Minero Mezcal
A single-village mezcal prepared in a clay still with bamboo tubing. This one is only mildly smoky, so if your dad is a tequila fan who’d like to try something funkier, start here.

Hendrick’s Gin
Hendrick’s is a slightly exotic gin made with cucumbers and rose petals. Its softness makes a particularly refreshing gin and tonic.
Bonus points for the old-timey medicinal bottle, which fits right in with dad’s steam-punk lifestyle.

1997 Niepoort Vintage Port
Your dad knows his port, so you want something really good, but not $400 a bottle good, you know? This is relatively young, as vintage ports go, but ready to drink. Throw in a few cigars while you’re at it.

Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Marzen
If your dad’s a beer drinker, try a selection of interesting options from Bottle Trek.
This Marzen has been around since 1678. It’s an unusual savory beer with a smoky flavor some compare to roasted meat or sausage.

Clear Creek Pear Brandy
The folks at Clear Creek Distillery in Oregon grow these pears inside the bottle, scrub the bottle and fruit by hand, and pour in their subtle eau de vie.
I found out about them on a road trip to Portland with our Mighty Junior editor, Melissa Summers. Her husband warned her not to come home without a few bottles, because he uses the brandy to make unstoppable pear sidecars. Now he can get his fix online.
(Bottle sans pear is $40.)

Macallan Fine Oak 15 Year Old Scotch
You don’t want to mess with a man’s scotch. If your dad’s a scotch drinker you probably already know what he likes, so get that.
If your dad appreciates good scotch, but isn’t brand-loyal (yet), it’s tough to go wrong with Macallan.

Hangar One Vodka
Hangar One Vodka is made by hand in an old military airplane hangar on the San Francisco Bay, and it’s a beautiful sipping vodka or drink base. They use small pot stills instead of column stills, and Hangar One contains none of the weird synthetic flavorings used by larger brands. Tie a bow around the neck, and throw it in the freezer next to a couple of tall shot glasses.
