It’s a Wrap

And Now, Holiday Gifts for Your Perusal

Nice work yesterday. That turducken never knew what hit it. But now, on to more pressing matters. Like what hidden treasures to bestow upon those lucky enough to be on your holiday gifting shortlist. Oh look, here’s some now...

And Now, Moonshine Cologne
FOR THE OLFACTORY-CONSCIOUS DAD

And Now, Moonshine Cologne

First off, no real moonshine was harmed in the making of this fragrance. That said, the woodsy wafts of tobacco, leather and black pepper Pops will get from this stuff (made by a few UGA grads) almost make up for its lack of grain alcohol content. Almost.

The Greatest Shopping List of All Time
FOR THE GOURMAND MISTRESS

The Greatest Shopping List of All Time

Your plan: head to either Hop City or Star Provisions and ask for the “Holiday Entertaining Guide.” You’ll then be directed to a carefully curated list consisting of five chocolate/wine/cheese/beer pairings all available on the Westside. Buy those things. Then put them in a gift basket. Then pretend it was your idea. And maybe burn the list.

Available at Hop City, 1000 Marietta St, Ste 302, 404-350-9998, and Star Provisions, 1198 Howell Mill Rd, 404-365-0410

Handmade Game Calls. Naturally.
FOR THE BIRD-DOGGING GRANDPA

Handmade Game Calls. Naturally.

Some guy named Brett in Braselton wants the hunters on your list to sound like ducks. So he went out and found the finest olive, cochan, tulip and curley maple woods known to man and painstakingly handmade duck calls out of them. So there you go... grandpa gift.

Smoked Nib Brittle at Olive & Sinclair
FOR THE FAMISHED OFFICE CROWD

Smoked Nib Brittle at Olive & Sinclair

Benton’s bacon and hams: kind of legendary. Olive & Sinclair chocolate: not bad, either. So it only made sense for the two of them to join forces and bestow your ivory, TPS-reporting tower with a limited-availability chocolate brittle smoked in Allan Benton’s Tennessee smokehouse itself. No one out-office-chocolates you.

A Pregame Spa Party at the Ritz
FOR THE SPA CONNOISSEUR

A Pregame Spa Party at the Ritz

You heard us... pregame spa party. It’s where you treat up to six lucky ladies in your life to a day at the spa. They’ll sip champagne. Eat dainty foods. Get massages and foot treatments. So yeah, set them up with that stuff. And then go away. Just so very far away.
