No need to overthink it.

Giving him one gift is great, provided said gift is second to none. Two gifts? Better than one, we’d say. A basket full of gifts? Now we’re getting somewhere. A unique set of presents that you can buy all at once makes shopping easier and the occasion—be it a birthday, holiday, Earth Day...anything, really—more enjoyable for him, since there’s got to be at least one thing in there he’ll like and use. No matter how picky he is.

Truth be told, if you’re a stickler for the “basket” part of a gift basket, you won’t find much that screams cool from the limited search options. When you do choose to expand your mind beyond a basket to a box or set of goodies, then the fun begins. That’s where you'll find all the makings of the ultimate charcuterie board, for example, or discover a DIY whiskey-making kit perfect for the mixologist-in-training. Here we’ve uncovered the 22 best gift baskets—or gift boxes and gift sets—that’ll click with guys who’ve got a stomach for everything, a taste for luxury, or a thing for cool gear and gadgets. If you’re lucky, maybe they’ll share.

He’ll be flattered you think he’s a grill master and he’ll love all the new BBQ gadgets.

For the guy who always orders the flight of beer instead of just one draft. The more bottles, the merrier, right?

If he’s new to the grooming game—understandably, considering how dramatically the past two years changed our habits—set him up with a box of Bevel’s great beard and shave products. Nothing says class like a straight razor.

Here at Esquire, we stand by a man with some panache and good taste in his arsenal. As such: We believe the Down Under set is the perfect addition to his below-the-belt collection.

Sausages, salami, crackers, nuts, and all kinds of cheese will make his charcuterie dreams come true.

Five to seven licensed pieces of merch as well as exclusive collectibles shipped from a galaxy far, far away will consume him. It will. Pray the one he’ll receive includes a Baby Yoda, because he’s just so damn cute.

He'd be hard-pressed to pass up D'Artagnan's premium arrangement of sliced Mangalica ham, paté de Campagne, wild-boar sausage, chorizo sausage, and pork sausage. You might be hard-pressed to pass it up, too.

If the amateur bartender in your life is not exactly a natural-born talent, this will help. Just add vodka!

If you’re on the hunt for a gift for a wine lover, this is kind of like sending a sommelier over to their place, but slightly more affordable.

A delectable option from Goldbelly’s dessert offerings, which in this case is crunchy-on-the-outside, gooey-on-the-inside jumbo cookies baked by one of the best pastry chefs working today.

This gift box taps cigar and whiskey elements from whiskey stones, a cigar cutter, and a wooden ashtray so he can have it all with the utmost style.

No gift basket says “treat yourself” quite like a slew of the most decadent snacks sourced directly from makers in Japan. His sweet tooth will be well taken care of.

Tennessee whiskey with a soulful history tied to the man who taught Jack Daniels how to distill, poured into Markham Marquis crystal glassware—now, that’s a sip.

Just the essentials—and nothing more—are all he needs, wherever he travels. Then simply watch him glow.

A candle gift duo that’ll make his home smell incredible and do better by Mother Nature.

Not many men can craft their own hooch, so this best-selling kit is about to make him feel really special. Though you’ll have to throw in a liter of bourbon or vodka to complete the experience, it has everything else he needs to create his new favorite flavor profile.

Because we never quite outgrow our craving for the mall’s finest dining establishment.

Expand the most reluctant groomer’s bathroom-product lineup beyond that sad, lone bottle of 3-in-1.

Has he always dreamed of being on Hot Ones? This is the ideal DIY kit for him.

If he’s always on the go, gift him this set from Bybba. The foldable tote is roomy and easy to store, the 2-in-1 pouch holds all the little things, and the laundry bag makes repacking easy.
