citrus. It’s elegant.<br />
It’s Italian. If you’re<br />
buying for the dad<br />
who enjoys the lusso<br />
lifestyle, here’s your<br />
gift. From R1899<br />

Let the games begin. This leather<br />
and cowhide Backgammon Box Set,<br />
with die tumblers, is all old-school<br />
charm and heirloom material. You<br />
could, to make it more special, attach<br />
a luggage tag with a personalised<br />
monogram to the handle. R3980<br />
(R200 for the personalised luggage<br />
tag) from journeyleather.co.za<br />
These. Soft, comfy, warm, with 100<br />
per cent wool, sheepskin collars,<br />
and thick durable rubber soles<br />
for when you need to go out at<br />
midnight to let the dog out. The<br />
soles are made from a thick durable<br />
rubber. R690 from parkas.co.za<br />
Rare, limited Husk Spirit<br />
What Port is to Portugal, Cava to Spain, and Champagne to France, so now too<br />
is Grappa to Italy. This is thanks to a relatively recent change in terminology. If it’s<br />
made elsewhere in the world, then the spirit which is distilled from grape skins<br />
that have been removed during the wine-making process, is referred to as Husk<br />
Spirit. The ‘husks’ or skins find new life in a clear, refined spirit that is anchored<br />
in wine production but takes flight in delicious new directions. Like the virgin<br />
release of De Toren Private Cellar ultra-premium De Toren Fusion V Premium<br />
Husk Spirit. This rare and limited edition is an ideal digestif, meal accompaniment,<br />
or enjoy it the traditional Italian way as a Caffè corretto, which is an espresso<br />
shot ‘corrected’ with a small amount of grappa. Be sure to drink at the correct<br />
temperature - 14 ºC to 16ºC - and in the optimal grappa stemware – a tulipshaped<br />
or cognac glass. You should also let it breathe for 10 to 15 minutes. Only<br />
529 bottles exist, each one individually numbered and carefully packaged by<br />
hand in its special edition wooden case, making it a true collector’s item. R1259.<br />
