Share A Taylor’s Port Cocktail With Dad This Father’s Day
When you’re buying for the man who has everything, a great bottle of liquor is the ultimate cheat code. Port probably isn’t the first option that pops up in your mind, but any liquor afficionado makes sure to have at least one bottle stored away for the right occasion. While they’re arguably better known for their fantastic vintage selection, their 10 Year Old Tawny Port would makes for a welcome addition to any home bar.
A delicious dessert wine, the 10 Year pairs exquisitely with a variety of flavours, from sweet ones like berries to more rich ones like dark chocolate, as well as makes for some tasty cocktails. Aged exclusively in oak barrels which give it its distinctive ‘tawny’ light-brown hue, the 10 Year Old is a great choice for those looking for a refreshing, flavourful punch of fruitiness from an after-dinner drop.
Once you’ve gifted him this fine drop, be sure to whip this Louisville Julep cocktail to share with him:
