Gifts for Dad

He does not have to be a golfer, whisky drinker or gadget collector to be easy to choose for. Notice where Dad spends an unhurried hour and what he reaches for then. An upgrade only helps if he wants to replace the familiar thing. Ask before changing a favourite brewing method or introducing a new hobby on his behalf.

Follow his brewing method

Check what he already owns before adding more pieces, including filters and a suitable kettle where needed. No beans, tea or extra equipment are included unless the product's contents explicitly say so.

Choose the game, then bring a player

If he already plays chess or backgammon, the nicest addition may be your time. Compare the board and pieces with the set he uses now, and check where it will live between games. A more decorative set is not automatically easier to play. Avoid buying a second board purely to fill a budget.

One photograph, or a small story

A photograph from a trip you took together can be more specific than another slogan about dads. Decide between a single frame and an album before selecting prints. Prepare the contents yourself, and choose a memory he enjoys discussing. Neither option needs to become a public tribute or a record of his whole life.
