Skating supremo, Tony Hawk, knows what to get the guy who has everything: Flaviar membership.  “I feel like I’m the cliche guy for a ‘guy that has everything’ and Flaviar membership — I’ve already had one for two years now,” he says.

So, what does Tony Hawk know about Flaviar memberships? Turns out, quite a bit. Check out this video to hear the skateboarding icon discuss how his membership accelerated his imbibing exploration. These days Hawk is a big fan of seeking out rare and unusual whiskies, which he often finds in Flaviar’s Vault.

“I can honestly say I’ve put more time, effort and money into acquiring good whiskey and bourbon than I have trying to collect vintage skateboards” he says. And he’s completely on board with partaking in all of the Flaviar membership perks, like…

1. Tasting Boxes
Every three months, Flaviar members have the chance to claim a Tasting Box of their choice amongst a treasure trove of different themes: Rum, Mezcal, Bourbon, Scotch and more. Each box comes with three different samples of spirits, so Dad’s not locked into an entire bottle if it doesn’t strike his fancy.

“I like the Tasting Boxes because it gets you a sample of each one and you’re not committing to a whole bottle and so you can really pick and choose your flavors,” adds Hawk. “I also like that it’s unbiased, there are no labels on the Tasting Boxes, so it’s just a clean slate.”

Whether you’re spending time together in person or FaceTiming across time zones, sharing a box or ordering one for yourself, exploring new and delicious drams with each other will bring you closer than ever. Dad’s membership allows him to pick a full-size bottle every three months that gets shipped alongside his Tasting Box.

2. The Vault
“My favorite aspect of my Flaviar membership is The Vault, because it gives me access to rare and vintage whiskies. Their collection is very impressive, and the options are plentiful.”

The Vault is where Flaviar keeps some of the most coveted and critically acclaimed spirits in the world. Once a month, it reveals a private selection of these rare releases to members only — Dad’ll appreciate elevating himself to baller status.

3. Unboxing Flavor Events
Hawk may be a skateboarding pro, but he doesn’t consider himself a pro spirits taster. “I’d more say I’m a sponsored amateur,” he admits. But no matter, not everyone can be a spirits expert.  Maybe Dad can relate to Tony’s outlook. But with Flaviar’s live and on-demand virtual tastings, Unboxing Flavor, Dad can explore a Flaviar Tasting Box with Flaviar’s spirits master, secret guests, and other aficionados while turning himself into a more confident sipper.

“I don’t claim to be an expert on the whole process or to know every flavor profile.” adds Hawk. “So when you watch the unboxing, they break it down for you, and you don’t have to be an expert to understand it.”

Dad will learn how to taste and describe the layers and nuances in a spirit’s aroma and flavor, track his progress, refine his palate, and improve with every sip.

As a leader in tackling the never-been-done-before, Hawk knows a thing or two about being adventurous. “I never want to stop exploring,” he says. “I won’t quit exploring fine Spirits (or skating) until I am physically unable. Flaviar will make you feel like a pro regardless of your experience.

Flaviar membership is $300 per year, or $95 a quarter. For those looking to share a tasting experience with Dad, sign up for a three-month membership to taste and learn together — maybe Dad will share the bottle of WhistlePig PiggyBack that comes with his first spirits delivery, if you’re lucky.

If a Flaviar membership is cool enough for the most well known professional skateboarder in the game, it’s definitely cool enough for your dad or father figure — plus it’s an outstanding way to spend time together as you explore the wild and wonderful world of spirits.
