Copper Fox Distillery:
Wasmund’s Two-Liter Barrel Kit
Perhaps Dad would like to make his own whiskey? If being a whiskey taster is on his list of dream jobs, here’s how to make it come true as a hobby. The barrel comes with clear, unaged single malt from Wasmund’s boutique Virginia distillery, along with an oak barrel. You fill the barrel with the clear whiskey and let it age for four months or more. You taste it noting how the flavor becomes smooth and the color turns to bronze. Then you age some more and taste to see more flavors develop. After your first batch is done, the barrel can be reused to make more, with the layers of flavors and complexities evolving with each use. How fun is this?

FAIR.:
Fair Trade Quinoa Vodka
We can’t say that we like their difficult-to-comprehend-and-execute spelling, but FAIR. Vodka (yes, there’s a period after the brand name) pursues a noble cause: making products from Fair Trade ingredients. It’s the first Fair Trade vodka in the world, as well as the first one made with the supergrain, quinoa. The production process is the result of two years of joint research by French distillers and Bolivian quinoa farmers. This unique spirit deserves a FAIR. test.
