Whether They're A Whisky Lover Or A Saree Stan, Our Mother's Day Gifting Guide Has It All

Mother’s Day is around the corner, and while classic gifts like flowers and generic chocolates have their charm, there is so much more to consider. We’re also shifting the focus from gifts related to domestic duties like cooking and homemaking to choose gifts that truly celebrate moms for their individuality. 

So whether it’s your mom, a friend who just became a mother, or the maternal figure who’s always had your back you’re giving a gift to, we’ve curated a list of thoughtful presents that reflect their unique tastes. From those who love to indulge in a little self-care with luxe skincare, the one who’s all about that statement jewellery, or even the mom who loves to savour a good whiskey after a long day, this guide has a little something for different moms with varied sensibilities. 

When it comes to gifting spirits, Father's Day often gets the spotlight, but let’s not forget about the moms who appreciate a good, stiff drink.

With its smooth finish and nuanced flavour profile, it's a great gift to appreciate the mom who knows her liquor as well as she knows her life, and to perhaps raise a toast with her!
