In the professional world, when someone looks after you, you are absolutely right to express your gratitude and do something for them in kind. He not only turned you on to the job but also vouched for you as a reference. He did most of the legwork and you got yourself hired.
Considering the position you have been hired on for is a bump in status as well as a significant bump in salary, I would let him know exactly how appreciative you are.
I don't know the specifics of the situation or exactly how much money this is for you, but if it is significant, do the right thing and hook the man up. This is one of those times you want to go a little over on.
Being a scotch guy, I'd go with a great bottle of scotch for sure. That's a man thing. But I'd also do something for the guy that he can enjoy with his wife or family as what he did for you not only impacted your life but likely bettered the lives of your family as well.
Tickets to a cool show, a nice dinner for his family somewhere, or something that is an experiential gift that he will enjoy and remember and not just a material gift.
That way he has something in hand for himself and something to share with his loved ones.
Can't go wrong. You know him, none of us do. Anything you choose to give and/or do for him will be appreciated, I am sure.
Congrats on the new job homie.
