Get dad some eco-scotch

Every week we pick a theme to explore in more depth, and this week that theme is green ideas for dads. To read all our posts related to this theme, click here.

Mother's Day is usually a breeze, almost anyone can come up with some good green ideas given a minute or two. For whatever reason, coming up with a good Father's Day present can be a real pain. Well, if you're dad happens to like a good single-malt scotch -- your days of shopping agony might be over.

Benromach Organic is handmade from raw ingredients, and every step in the distilling process has been certified organic by the UK's Soil Association. This organic whisky is made from local ingredients from the Scottish highlands and then aged in American oak casks that come from environmentally-managed forests. So, whether it's you or your dad that's green, you can be pretty sure that you've got some high quality booze -- and for under $50. If he's not into scotch, there are some green vodkas and rums out there too.

This would be great in combination with the UroClub, if you're dad's a golfer. You know, because one usually leads to the other.
