"The guy on your holiday list knows exactly which bottle of wine to order with that salmon dish, can name the best spot for bourbon in your entire state&amp;amp;mdash;and, come to think of it, has Beer Advocate as his homepage. If this sounds familiar, then we have his present all picked out already!Here she is: Beate Kiser, your gift guide curator. She&amp;#x27;s a mixologist and bar manager at Beauty &amp;amp; Essex, a ridiculously chic venue in Manhattan&amp;#x27;s Lower East Side. When we told her you ladies could use some recommendations, she whipped up this amazing guide. Now, on to the booze! Johnnie Walker Blue Label, $220, johnniewalker.com for retailers If your guy is a scotch whiskey lover, and you want to make him feel extra special this holiday, having his own personalized bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label would do the trick. This is the blend people really splurge on and to have his own bottle with his name engraved on it, well, you might become the coolest girl ever.... Ketel One Vodka, $23 Does your guy wish he lived in the Mad Men era? Then snagging him a bottle of Ketel One would be one way of taking him back to that time where vodka martinis were enjoyed on the regular. Johnnie Walker Double Black, $40 If your guy loves to collect different specialty malts and spirit, get him this new limited edition bottle for the two of you to sip by the fireplace. Brooklyn Brew Shop Beer Making Kit, $40, brooklynbrewshop.com This would be something I would pick up for a guy who still likes to do experiments or grown up science projects. How awesome will he feel when he has the boys over and gets to offer them beer he made himself? Tequila Don Julio 70, $70 Tequila Don Julio 70 is such a special gift for a guy who is a true tequila lover. Tequila Don Julio is, in my opinion, one of the best tequilas out there, and since this tequila is their first new release in 10 years and the world&amp;#x27;s first clear a&amp;amp;ntilde;ejo tequila, it would be a real treat for any aficionado. Zacapa Rum XO, $100 Zacapa Rum XO is an incredibly unique and interesting rum. So, if you&amp;#x27;re shopping for a guy who likes to try new things, pick him up a bottle of Zacapa Rum but be sure to let him know that this isn&amp;#x27;t your average rum and coke. Like a fine scotch or cognac, Zacapa Rum is best enjoyed sipped on its own to truly appreciate the delicious flavor. Plus, here are some boozy extras he&amp;#x27;ll love: Stainless Steel Martini Picks, $9, martiniware.com For a guy with a little sophistication who likes his martinis, these stainless steel olive picks would be the perfect accessory. They&amp;#x27;re very James Bond. La Gloria Cubana Domino cigar set, $60, mikescigars.com Cigars are something that men LOVE to have around. Who knows what it is about them, but they really make a guy feel like a guy. I would pick up La Gloria Cubana&amp;amp;#8217;s Domino pack for guy I was trying to leave a good impression on. Reed &amp;amp; Barton &amp;quot;Soho&amp;quot; Whisky Decanter, $100, dillards.com I would snag this beautiful decanter for a guy who likes to enjoy a whiskey to unwind after work, and feel a little fancy at the same time. And if you&amp;#x27;re living with your guy, a crystal decanter always looks nicer in your home than just a whiskey bottle. (Ed note: Smart lady!) Yarai Mixing Glass, $39.95, cocktailkingdom.com If your guy is, has been, or has ever fantasized about being a bartender, this gorgeous mixing glass would be the perfect addition, or start, to his bar tool collection. He would finally be able to mix up his own Manhattans with serious style. Is your guy a self-declared mixologist or a booze snob? Would you get him one of these?
