Whiskey Stones
If you’re still unsure about what to buy for your dad, you can buy him these Whiskey Stones. Who doesn’t like to have a chilled drink or two? When we talk about “chilled”, we think of ice; but the thing about using ice for chilling your drink is that it soon dissolves into water and dilutes your drink. That can be a major turn off for any purist who likes to have his drink neat. This is what must have led to the invention of Whiskey Stones. These are designed to keep your drink cool while not diluting it at the same time! It is great for non-alcoholic drinks too, in case your dad is not a booze person.

Your dad will be pleasantly surprised to receive it on Father’s Day.

If I had kids I’d force them to get me the rainbow sand one. It looks really neat. The gorillapod on the other hand is hillarious.
