Fast Five for Father’s Day

With Father’s Day just around the corner we thought we would slip you a few gift ideas to keep you looking like a fantastic son or daughter.

Wine

A great lunch or dinner is only 60% attributed to the food itself. Adding a great beverage can be almost as important as the meal itself. A bottle of wine is amazing because it is limited in quantity for the vintage, shared and remembered. We’ve taste tested the range from St. Hugo and a bottle served straight or with food will go down a real treat. Not every wine gift needs to be a Penfolds Grange, this bottle from St. Hugo will be sure to impress.

Grooming Pack

A perfectly packaged bunch of items can become the best combination gift on the planet. GentSac specialises in mens packages. An example of a GentSac includes a razor, socks, shaving cream, after shave and more. It’s all super premium and will be sure to impress your dad.

Entertainment

If your dad is in need of some relaxation on the couch then giving him an excuse is ideal. A DVD Box set or Netflix subscription is our suggestion here. The new season of Modern Family is now available on disc or a 12 month subscription to Netflix won’t cost you the earth either. A TV box-set is fantastic for watching anywhere at anytime with or without the internet and a Netflix subscription will give dad access to more content than ever.

Experiences

A wrapped up box of goodies on fathers day is one thing to remember for a moment. A gift of an experience is something that will be remembered forever. Red Balloon is full of relaxing or heart pumping experiences that you can buy for dad. We actually recommend finding something dad can do with you or his significant other. We tested sailing on an Americas Cup Yacht recently with dad and absolutely loved it.

Personalised Items

Whether it is cufflinks with dads initials or a diary embossed with their name on the front, a personalised gift is rather remarkable. It is beyond the standard gift. We’ve recently met with the team at Disrupt and learned about the personalised Surfboard. This is an Australian made surfboard that can be customised in design so that it looks exactly as you want. Throw a design on the top, add his name to the board, make it personal. The cost isn’t increased through the roof either with most selling around $750-$800. If your old man loves the waves, this is ideal.
