Finding a gift for a grown man for any occasion is hard enough as it is, but when we're shopping for Father's Day, the pressure is practically doubled. Or tripled, if your dad is anything like mine and insists he's "fine" with yet another book.

Thank goodness Oprah put us on to Truff hot sauce in her annual "Favorite Things List." Simply put, it's just about one of the fanciest truffle-infused condiments you can buy (think: if truffle oil and sriracha teamed up and were sold at Neiman Marcus). Most importantly, dads get a kick out of it, no pun intended. And yes, that even includes my dad, who swore he “didn't want anything.” So if you’re in the market for a tasty present that dad (or just about anyone, really) is sure to eat right up, now is the best time to stock up on the stuff. Thanks to a summer sale, you can snag perfectly giftable Truff gift packs (the only grilling essentials he'll need this season) for 25 percent off with coupon code SUMMERSALE through June 7.

FYI, that's seven whole days to shop, people, and I highly suggest you use that time wisely (as in, you should consider grabbing some for yourself, too). Because, as Oprah says, you probably won't find a better vegan and gluten-free hot sauce for the spicy food lover in your life. And if he doesn't do spicy, other gift packs like the Black and White Truffle Oil combo (was $55, now $41) will surely pique his interest.

Here are five Truff gifts we're buying on sale for our dads (and ourselves) this year.

In case you’re wondering, Oprah is a fan of this particular Truff starter pack, and we can see why. It features the brand's original hot sauce, black truffle oil and black truffle salt, all of which give you a taste of what Truff is all about, whether you’re taking cheesy white pizza to the next level or upgrading your avocado toast. The hot sauce boasts a medium heat "coming in at about 2500 SHU" per the brand. The oil and salt, however, aren’t spicy, so they could serve as a good balance for the dad who’s all about that truffle, but not quite about the spice.

The name totally gives it away, but this pack is indeed made for the real spicy food lovers. First, it includes the Truff White Hotter sauce, a fiery blend of rare white truffles and red chili peppers, along with the red-label Hotter sauce, made with black truffles, agave nectar and red habanero powder. According to the brand, these babies are two to three times hotter than the original formula. (I can attest to this as a fan.) Then there's the Black Truffle Arrabbiata pasta sauce that brings on just the right amount of spice without being overpowering, so spaghetti and meatballs can get a perfect kick.

If he's not into spicy food, but he lives for that truffle taste, then this decadent duo is right up his alley. It comes complete with both white and black truffle-infused olive oil. The difference is that the white oil is a lighter formula infused with real white truffles, whereas the black truffle oil is a darker, earthier blend made with black truffles. That's two different vibes for whatever mood he’s in—and whatever he’s craving. Reviewers say the oils are great for cooking everything from eggs to veggies to steak. "It adds so much flavor and depth to any dish. I have used it when reheating leftovers, and it really bursts the flavor,” says one.

Perfect for the hot sauce addict, this set really brings on the heat since it features all three of the brand's best-selling sauces. In other words, it will make a fire gift—literally. One reviewer shares, "[I got this for a] hot-sauce-loving family member (and for me to try as well!). I really love how you get to [taste] all three versions of the sauce," adding that the fancy box they all come in makes it even harder to resist.

Want to totally knock his socks off? Look no further than Truff's ultimate pack loaded with everything the brand has to offer. Containing four different hot sauces, two pasta sauces, two types of mayonnaise, truffle oils and truffle salt, this set will stock his pantry with luxe condiments guaranteed to spice up his life. We think it's perfect if he's familiar with the brand, and you probably won't find a better steal for under $150.
