The ultimate Father’s Day gift guide

You’ve sat through the dad jokes, the cringe (but sometimes cute) ‘life lessons’ and the same three stories on repeat for the last 20 years. Now, while Dad might act like he doesn’t want anything for Father’s Day, he definitely does. So we’ve put together our best minds (me) to conjure up the best guide ever (it’s filtered by $) so you know exactly what to get your old man and how much to budget for.

$20 bucks and underYou really can’t go wrong with a bit of wine. For a dad who froths a prawn on the barbie, get this Marlborough Sounds Sauvignon Blanc. For a “meat, meat, more meat” kinda guy, get this Riddoch Coonawarra Shiraz
Sauvignon Blanc
$30 bucks and underIf you wanna step it up a bit and go bougie on a budget, the Grant Burge Pinot Noir Chardonnay is a winner. She's fruity, she's rich, and best of all, it looks like a bottle of champers without the price tag. 
Pinot Noir Chardonnay
$50 bucks and underThis is perf for the dad who’s not like other dads. If your old man is cooler than you, then you can’t go past this Cutwater Tiki Rum Mai Tai. Yes, it’s a mouthful, but it’s so, so, SO YUM - and it’s a little unique as far as gifts go.

$70 bucks and underNow we’re getting into the heavy stuff. If your dad loves his watches, cars and power tools, then Glen Moray’s Single Malt is the ticket. It’s a bit more luxe, but the taste justifies every penny (if he’s into the whole whiskey thing.) 
Classic Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL
$80 bucks and underOh hey big spender, you made it to the end! Here we’ve got Jack Daniel’s Gentleman Jack. The most expensive on our list is the ‘big daddy’ of gifts. If you wanna flex that new pay check, or maybe make up for missing Father’s Day last year, this’ll get the job done. It’s also one of the smoothest bourbons out there, which never hurts.
