If he is in to his food (cooking it or just eating it), then Anathoth's great range of hearty, chunky Chutneys that would make the ideal gift Dad. These delicious spreads are affordable, quirky and a great change from the socks or undies and beer.

Best Australian Father's Day Gift Ideas

No doubt you are aware that father's day is fast approaching (Australian father's day 2011 is Sunday 4 September). If your father enjoys a fine drop, then the one name you should think of is Tobermory (no, not the Womble by the same name- the fine Scotch Whisky!)
A perfect must have for fathers this year, the Tobermory Single Malt Whisky  has a prized winning and unique taste, prized packaging and unique story to tell, being the only distillery on the picturesque Isle of Mull, Scotland.

Built in 1798, Tobermory Distillery is the only distillery on the island of Mull and the oldest commercial distillery in Scotland. Its old world charm reflects the Tobermory spirit that says we do things the old fashioned way, by hand. The residents of Mull, the 'Muliach', call where the distillery rests 'Ledaig', meaning safe haven. Since 1798 the Tobermory Distillery has sat proudly lending a watchful eye over the bay.
With a tantalising natural colour of golden chestnuts and a lovely sherried nose with notes of fig, orange marmalade, hints of leather and a touch of smoke this fine scotch whisky has a medium to full bodied palate, with rich sherry fruit cake, milk chocolate, creamy toffee, light oak, a hint of white pepper creating a lovely spicy tang.

Available from selected spirit merchants and online, Dad's Choice readers have the chance for a bonus gift. Simply join the "Whisky Club" at www.whiskygalore.com.au and enter the code "Well of Mary"(the Gaelic translation of Tobermory) when purchasing a bottle of Tobermory 15 year old Single Malt, to receive 2x Glencairn Whisky Glasses, an added value of $40 (limited time only - see website for details).
