DEWAR’S has the Perfect Father’s Day Gift

What are you getting dad for Father’s Day this year? If you were thinking a good bottle of whiskey is just what the doctor ordered, DEWAR’S has an even better suggestion. To celebrate dads everywhere, DEWAR’S Scotch whisky and Freemans Sporting Club in NYC are teaming up for two gifts that will make it the most memorable Father’s Day yet. For the entire month of June, you can treat dad to an exclusive Scotch and a Shave or Scotch and a Suit.

DEWAR'S 12 YearFor $50, a Scotch and a Shave makes for a perfect bonding moment between you and dad. The package includes a good old fashioned straight razor shave at Freeman’s Barbershop with pre-shave oil, shaving cream, hot foam, aftershave and a hot eucalyptus towel. While you’re getting a smooth face, you’ll be sipping on DEWAR’S 12, a luxuriously rich, fruity and smooth blend with mellow, buttery notes.

If you really want to treat dad to something special, the Scotch and a Suit is the ultimate indulgence. For $1,600, dad can get fitted for a Freemans Sporting Club suit, featuring a classic two-button silhouette and trim, modern fit. While he’s getting custom tailoring, he’ll be sipping on DEWAR’S 18, a mellow libation with notes of butterscotch and almonds. The lingering and pleasantly dry finish is accompanied by DEWAR’S signature heather honey note, offering an extra level of distinction and refinement.

If you’re in the NYC area and want to give him something extra special for Father’s Day, we at The Manual can’t think of a better way to show dad you appreciate everything he’s done for you over the years. Even the manliest man needs a little pampering sometimes.

Forget wine — Beer and cheese is an unbeatable combination

Beer and cheese

When one hears the term cheese pairings, wine is the beverage that most often comes to mind, we'd wager. Because, of course, it is. The pairing of wine and cheese is as classic a coupling as peanut butter and jelly, bacon and eggs, or chocolate and strawberries. They're meant to be together. But that certainly doesn't mean that wine is the only adult beverage that can dance an alluring tango alongside everyone's favorite dairy product. Beer, as humble as its reputation can be, is also a beautiful balance to cheese's immense offering of flavors. While some may think of beer as not being as multi-dimensional and varied in its palate-pleasing capabilities as wine, this is not the case - especially now that we live in a world with so many exquisite craft beers, stouts, and lagers.
Of course, another classic accompaniment to cheese is bread or crackers. Why might that be, one might ask. Is it because we're simply in need of a starchy vessel to usher the cheese into our mouths? The answer is actually a bit deeper than that. Starches like bread and crackers are made from the same yeasty ingredients as beer, so their pairing makes perfect culinary sense.
This isn't to say, though, that one can simply pick up a hunk of cheddar and crack open a Budweiser and expect culinary artistry. The science is a bit more nuanced than that, so we're here to help you find the best pairings for your favorite beers and cheeses.

If you’re new to tequila, you might not know all the terms. Even if you’re just a beginner, you probably know all about blanco, reposado, añejo, and maybe even joven. But chances are, you’re not familiar with Cristalino tequila. This reasonably contemporary style is simply añejo tequila that’s been charcoal filtered to remove its natural caramel color and various impurities.

The style is more than just a little popular. It’s actually the fastest growing style of tequila according to Nielsen data. The newest brand to get in on the Cristalino trend is Mijenta.

You may not dislike IPAs as much as you think — you’ve just tried the wrong type
There's much more to the IPA than bitter hop bombs
Beer

The IPA has been described as the cilantro of the beer world. It’s assumed by some novice drinkers that you either love it or hate it. On one hand, it’s one of the most popular beer styles in the American craft world. It’s loved by many drinkers for its liberal use of hops and fresh, crushable flavor profile.

But haters of the style dislike it because they have an assumption that all IPA beers are aggressively hopped and uncomfortably bitter. While there are IPAs that fit that criterion (and fans of that style can’t get enough of them), there are also a handful of other types of IPAs to fit any palate.
