Black Rock Mud

Sourced straight from the earth of the Black Rock Desert and sustainably harvested by hand, this mineral-rich mud mask will leave your skin feeling oh so good.

Bently Heritage Estate Distillery

A 100-year-old flour mill flourishes once again as an absolutely gorgeous distillery, producing vodka, gin, whisky, and hecate cocoa liqueur from grains grown exclusively on its nearby Carson Valley ranch, earning it the rare and proud status of being one of the only true estate distillery operations on Earth..

Treat yourself to a tintype portrait session, just like Abraham Lincoln sat for back in the day. The process dates back to the 1850s, and your resulting one-of-a-kind photograph is certain to become a family heirloom.

Chocolate Nugget Candy Factory

Homemade chocolates, fudge, taffy, brittles, and more — including still-in-use candy-making equipment dating back to the early 1900s — await at this candy shop that’s been in business for three generations.

J.M. Capriola Co.

With 90 years of saddle making under its custom leather-tooled belts, this historic, family-run business crafts handmade western goods that often become family heirlooms. If ranch ropes, snaffle bits, and spur straps aren’t for you, shop its apparel, outdoor items, and bookstore.

E.T. Fresh Jerky

The truth is out here, and so is supremely good beef, turkey, and elk jerky (plus dried fruit, nuts, and candy). Search for signs of extraterrestrial life while snacking on Carolina reaper, sweet garlic, and teriyaki seasonings.

Steamboat Hot Springs Healing Center & Spa Packages

Not every spa can boast about geothermal mineral water bubbling in from volcanic natural hot springs. Pencil in some me time for yourself or your loved one(s) with Glow, Rejuvenate, Relaxation, Detox, and Sonatherapy packages, or customize the ultimate spa day with a gift card.

Nevada Magazine

Whether it’s adventure inspiration you seek or the tools to achieve your Silver State dreams, Nevada Magazine — telling our state’s tales since 1936! — has you more than covered. Dig into unbelievable stories every quarter with a magazine subscription, or kick up some dirt roads with its Odyssey of a Ghost Town Explorer book and tear-and-water-resistant ghost town map.

Basin and Range Cellars

Straight from a vineyard in Minden (the highest elevation commercial vineyard in the country, mind you!), you can toast bottles of vino from the only all-Nevada winery in The Silver State.

Nevada Museum of Art

Peruse four levels and 70,000 square feet of the only art museum in Nevada accredited by the American Alliance of Museums (putting them in good company with The Met in New York and SFMOMA). You can shop Warhol puzzles, Dali socks, coffee table art books, and Seven Magic Mountains (the colorful art installation outside Las Vegas) mementos, or give the gift of museum membership to really treat the art lover in your life.
