It’s still summer in parts of the world, but already we are thinking about the upcoming holidays and our gift-list. Fortunately there are no gender lines in the world of spirits. So here is my gift list, and you can consider it either Gift Ideas for Him or Gift Ideas for Her, I do believe it works for everyone!

Bourbon This is a fast-growing category, according to sales on ACorkAbove.com, and new entries to the marketplace have quickly become classics. Your recipient will be quite pleased to open a gift of Jefferson’s Presidential Select, aged 17 years and at 94 proof, “ultra rare, ultra premium”. An interesting “natural proof” bourbon is Booker’s – “one of the only uncut, unfiltered, straight-from-the-barrel, bourbons available today.” These are examples of the kind of bottle that might be considered For Special Occasions and maybe not something a person would buy for himself.

Scotch Scotch is something you have to “develop a taste for” but once you have it, you have to have it. Almost as complicated as buying a bottle of wine with the various selections from each distillery, the questions are: Single Malt or Blend? Fairly young or well-aged? Even the area of production can make a huge difference in the ultimate taste. If you don’t know for sure, perhaps the Johnnie Walker Sampler is a good choice, even the connoisseur will enjoy four examples to compare. Then again, you can’t go wrong with The Glenrothes Select Reserve , a single malt favorite.

Rum Looking for something special in the Rum category? A best-seller, especially for gift-giving, is the Clement Cuvee Homere from Martinique. Created in homage of founder, Homère Clément, it’s a blend of three of the best vintages of the last 15 years. Is your recipient a collector? You will make a hit with Khukri XXX Coronation Rum ; from Nepal, this bottle was specially developed in the shape of a "Khukri" (Dagger) symbolizing strength and power. Fun fun fun!

Tequila New in the US this year is Fat Ass Tequila, the Blanco available for a few months now, and recently the Reposado and Anejo. Don’t let the frivolous name fool you, this is a quality product that will delight the tequila-lover in your life. For something really special, consider the DeLeon Tequila Reposado, “in a class by itself.”

Cocktails Here’s a fun idea, a batch of cocktails! Everything a person needs to create the perfect cocktail at home. You can send the perfect Dirty Martini or at the other end of the taste scale, the perfect Cosmopolitan. Check out our list of Cocktail Kits, something for everyone. ]]> jack@acorkabove.com http://acorkabove.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=7 Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:29:35 -0400 http://acorkabove.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=7_31 Cocktail Dancers’
