Whiskey drinkers who take the spirit seriously are not messing around. Not even a little bit. They can wax philosophical about Scottish terroir and Kentucky's limestone water. They're startling poetic about angel's share, but militant about barrel staves. They hold celebrity whiskeys to the highest of standards, then fanboy or fangirl out when their favorite independent distiller announces a new blend. So it can be a little intimidating to try to choose an alcohol-themed gift to get one of these big whiskey types, especially if you're not an expert yourself. But in the end, it's all about a liquid that's wonderfully rewarding to drink, and we know a thing or two about that. And we're more than happy to share our knowledge with you, just like we'd share a dram. Here are the 35 best gifts for people who love whiskey.
Embrace the look of our favorite cinematic heroes. Everything from apparel to everyday carry to housewares is discounted by 15% through November 16. Issue Three is a collection of items made for a chill and stylish evening. The watch cap is from one of our local favorites, Knickerbocker. It'll keep ya warm while you sip on a double from Aged & Ore's glasses, which make a good-looking whiskey downright gorgeous. Use your new (but classic) Zippo to spark up your incense paper, a stogie, or really whatever you'd like. You'll find the Parlour dish by Hemson Goods makes a killer ashtray or catch-all for your gear. Finally, wrap up the night with a bar of small-batch chocolate from Brooklyn-born brand, Fine & Raw.
A new book reveals that Steve Carell had steep competition for the part of World's Best Boss—and got some (really) bad advice from Paul Rudd. The film is reportedly Netflix's most-watched opening day for a film, ever. Here's what we know about its future. The New York Times reported on a special operation in Syria from 2019 in which an American F-15 dropped a 500-pound bomb on a crowd of women and children, despite the fact that there was a drone with eyes on the crowd at the time.The magnitude of the cover-up by the military should surprise nobody who was alive during the Vietnam catastrophe, although I admit the fact that CIA personnel were shocked by the bombing campaign's disregard for civilian casualties, a disregard that reached its peak in the 2019 incident, is an interesting twist in this story. (And also, it must be said, something of a clue as to how the NYT perhaps found this story.) This kind of thing is what happens when you make war in a place. You cannot avoid it. But many people in charge of that effort will move heaven and earth to keep that simple truth from the people paying the bills.
