Rikke Hagen Whiskey Glasses


Rikke Hagen Whiskey Glasses
If you’re still consuming whiskey out of red Solo cups, it’s time to grow up.  As men, we are blessed with a few drinks that are both elegant and delicious, and while those cups might not do much about the taste, they sure as hell aren’t helping the elegance part.  For a distinctively grown up way to consume some Johnny Walker Blue Label, we’re digging the sophistication of these Rikke Hagen glasses from Normann Copenhagen.  The curve at the bottom of the glass is designed so you can hold and swirl your drink like The Most Interesting Man in the World (you know, when he’s not drinking Dos Equis). $61

Recycled Crystal Head Vodka Bowl


Recycled Crystal Head Vodka Bowl

          It could be the fact we’ve always wanted to be Indiana Jones, or the fact that Mayan legends (however ridiculous) are intriguing, but we think crystal skulls are awesome. Apparently Dan Aykroyd thought so too because the former Ghostbuster decided to put his significant paranormal experience to good use… by creating Crystal Head Vodka. When the vodka is all gone, the slightly ominous crystal head gets turned into this bowl. Use it for coins, candy, keys or even Cap’n Crunch. Whatever you do with bowls will be better out of a crystal head. $55

Crypteks USB


Crypteks USB

       Despite looking like a prop from a cinematic adaptation of some Dan Brown novel, the Crypteks USB is actually a very real way of keeping your most important info safe. Instead of keeping digital tax files, private corporate documents and loads and loads of porn on some USB drive that could easily be dropped and plugged into another PC, now you can actually secure those necessities. The Crypteks USB is a physically locking USB storage device (just come up with your password like you would an alphabetical bike lock) that also features 256-bit AES Hardware Encryption. Plus, face it, one day you’re gonna bite the dust, do you really want a loved one to plug your USB storage device in and find out about your weird midgets in bondage fetish? price ($130)

Scanomat Top Brewer

Scanomat Top Brewer
     We've covered some minimalist coffee machines before, but damn. The Scanomat Top Brewer lurks underneath your kitchen counter or inside your island, using dual grinders to ensure your source is as fresh as possible, heating fresh water for every cup using a unique boiler system and cleaning itself automatically, all springing to life with a single tap on your iPhone. It takes just 15 seconds to deliver a cup of filtered coffee, 25 seconds for a shot of espresso, and likely even less time to empty your bank account. price(TBD)
