Cognac

Prestige Dad

Bold yet incredibly smooth, D’Ussé Cognac was crafted by the legendary cellar master Michel Casavecchia in one of France’s oldest cognac houses. It’s a daring blend of tradition and swagger, with bold woody notes, a hint of cinnamon, and a floral finish. Perfect for the dad who rocks a blazer and a mischievous grin.

Papa Pear

This one’s for the dad with refined taste and a soft spot for fruit, and perhaps a sweet tooth. This unique French liqueur blends the intense flavour of Williams pears with the delicate complexity of cognac. Each bottle holds the essence of 18 pears — all harvested and distilled in Anjou, with zero additives. Whether he sips it on the rocks or in a cocktail like the Belles des îles, it’s elegance in a glass.

Whisky and scotch

The Distilled Gentleman

Made right here in Québec by Les Spiritueux Ungava, Baril Caché whisky is a blend of Canadian whiskies aged at least 5 years — tailored to Québécois taste. Its unique flavour comes from a precise mix of four iconic local grains: rye, barley, corn, and wheat. Winner of a gold medal at the 2024 World Whiskies Awards and ranked among the world’s best, this one’s for the dad who deserves a toast... and maybe a little wisdom-sharing session.

The Connoisseur Dad

Aged 12 years in American and European oak casks seasoned with sherry, this single malt is smooth, balanced, and full of character. Think caramel, citrus, and gentle spice. A must for whisky lovers — and for dads who appreciate the finer things (like themselves).

Glen Father

Aged in a combo of bourbon and sherry casks, this 12-year-old Scotch is a global icon. Deep, elegant, and balanced, it offers notes of pear, toffee, cream, malt, and subtle oak. If Dad hasn’t tried it yet, now’s the time — neat, on the rocks, or in a Glenfiddich Highball (1 part Scotch, 3 parts soda, lemon garnish).

Champagne

Bubbly Daddy

Crafted using the traditional method by a legendary Champagne house founded in 1827, this bubbly is all about timeless class and elegance. Complex and beautifully balanced, it finishes smooth and powerful, with lively bubbles and fresh fruit notes. It’s a true food-lover’s Champagne — perfect for elevating your Father’s Day table. And since GH Mumm’s motto is “Only the Best,” you know you’re giving Dad the crème de la crème.

Red wine

The Pope of Papas

The world’s best-selling Châteauneuf-du-Pape, La Fiole by Maison Brotte, is shaped like the vine itself bending in the Mistral wind. This bold yet smooth red brings notes of black cherry, garrigue, mushroom, smoke, and pepper. It’s round, supple, and made to be enjoyed young — a refined and distinctive gift Dad can savour now or anytime in the next five years.
