Choosing Unique Gifts For Men

By Dog Lover | August 31, 2009

When it comes to choosing a gift for friends or family members it has be something they will want to keep and is unique. One of the problems that buying gifts for men poses is that like any other gift you buy a friend or colleague for any occasion is that you want it to be original.

I know I can think of many gifts I have received over the years that were ggreat to receive but quickly were forgotten about and ignored afterwards. One of the best things about using the Internet for finding birthday presents/gifts for your loved ones is that you have the opportunity to find unique gifts for men online from retail outlets that you won’t find in your local neighborhood.

It was my brothers birthday last week and I was getting desperate to find him something unique. You know what it is like when you rack your brains for days and nothing comes of it! Well then I found what I thought was the perfect unique gift for men and especially someone like him. I bought my brother his very own Scottish Estate to Lord it over. And I mean “Lord it over” because owning this estate meant he was automatically known as the local Laird. (Laird is the Scottish name for Lord)

I admit it is not a huge Scottish land estate but it does legally belong to him and we all enjoyed the party when he was presented with the Lordship. A few friends were let in on the secret the day before and we all started to bow and curtsy to him calling him “my Lord” and really winding him up. He had no clue what was happening to him later that night.

He actually did live in Scotland for some time but family responsibilities prevent him from returning very often so this gift of being a Scottish Laird or Lord was made really special for him. We also added a bottle of Isle of Jura Malt Whisky into the gift as it is distilled only a Mile from his estate and he has the chance to visit the distillery when he goes to visit his Scottish Estate.

Even if your friend has no existing connection with Scotland they will love to read the fifty page Laird of Jura Handbook which goes into detail about the Scottish Culture and history of this beautiful Scottish island.
