Whiskoff Whiskey Glasses Set
Amazon.ca
If pops is a whiskey drinker, you know that no one just drinks whiskey. There’s a whole experience to it: aside from the spirit itself, the atmosphere has to be right, the glass has to feel right, and it needs to be just cool enough. This set appealed to us for those reasons: heavy-bottomed glasses give some heft, and the included stones, unlike ice cubes, keep it chill without having to worry about diluting it as they melt.
More reasons to buy:
Comes with two glasses, two slate coasters, eight polished granite cooling stones, and tongs
Wooden carrying case included
Rated 4.6 out of 5 on Amazon.ca, based on more than 800 reviews
ROSTMARYGIFT Wooden Docking Station
Amazon.ca
We’ve said it before, but we’re big fans of applying the culinary art of mise en place – get everything you need in one place before you start – and applying it everywhere you can (like cleaning your house). In that spirit, maybe your dad would appreciate this: a wooden docking stand for a desk or bedside table that gathers the little things like keys, pens, glasses, cards and suchlike all together to avoid worrying about where things are.
More reasons to buy:
Ideal for keeping your desk space free of clutter
Includes in-built mirror, and separate coaster and smartphone/tablet stand
Rated 4.3 out of 5, based on more than 1,200 reviews on Amazon.ca
CAROSE Portable Nylon Hammock
Amazon.ca
You mean you don’t have one already? You’ll definitely appreciate a hammock for those lazy summer weekend afternoons, and so will your dad. Even if you’ve no yard of your own, it’s eminently portable, easy to lug along to the park, picnic or camping trip. With a maximum capacity of 660 pounds, it’s more than capable of meeting your relaxation needs.
