Rich, well balanced deep body, hints of cocoa, with a subtle sweet after-taste.
4. Geological timescale water bottle~$39.95
Working out in the field can be hot, grueling work and staying hydrated is a must. Keep your water cold and at hand with this vacuum-sealed steel water bottle decorated with the geological timescale. It’s a textured design that’s BPA free and it also comes available in 32 oz size.
3. Jurassic Park MeUndies ~Prices vary

2. Stuffed brachiosaurs (and the Ancient Odysseys mascot)~$13.99
We adopted little "Mitey" here as our company mascot as we traveled to visit fossil sites in the Australian Outback this year, and we wanted to share the DINO-mite love. This cute little stuffed brachiosaurus from Wild Republic was a real trooper the whole way. He's super soft and pleasantly colorful with stuffing made from 100% recycled water bottles, so he's eco-friendly too. We have the 10" size but he comes in 15" and 19" too.
