The Whisky Tour of Scotland advent calendar

Advent calendars have long been a mainstay of our lives at Christmas, a tradition stretching back to the end of the 19th century, according to some reports.

This year advent calendars are joined by a truly luxurious advent calendar, The Whisky Tour of Scotland advent calendar!

The Whisky Tour of Scotland advent calendar features 24 very special and very rare aged single cask and blended expressions from the five Scotch whisky regions to offer whiskey enthusiasts the perfect advent calendar. 

Presented in the form of a handmade wooden cabinet, finished in the exact same style as a traditional whisky cabinet, it’s the perfect place to keep and store your whisky miniatures long after Christmas too. 

You should be able to find it for £160 from the following retailers: Harvey Nichols, Fenwick, Master of Malt, Amazon and Costco.

Distilled and bottled in some of the best distilleries in Scotland, the whisky artisans involved are among the best and most skilled in their field. 

These limited release casks offer the very best of aged, old and rare Scotch whiskies and will help the happy and joyous recipient celebrate the Christmas season in considerable style!

Each 50ml dram is bottled straight from the cask and represents an expression of some of the best whiskies Scotland has to offer from leading distilleries.

The advent calendar is sustainable and reusable in homage to the beautiful Scottish wilderness where each whisky is made.

The advent calendar contains:

24 x 50ml Whiskies, 42-50% ABV

18 Single Malts

3 Single Grains

3 Blended Expressions

The whiskies are from some of Scotland’s finest distilleries and will include examples from: Inchgower, Tullibardine, Linkwood, Caol Ila, Auchroisk, Strathmill, Blair Athol and many others besides.

Make your Christmas a Sprigster and SWISH Christmas this year

Sorry to remind you, but Christmas is just around the corner and we'd like to remind you Sprigster Drinks and SWISH Cocktails are absolutely perfect gift ideas and substitutes for non-drinkers this Christmas!

Some people aren't drinking alcohol for health reasons or on religious grounds so they need something tasty and refreshing to make their Christmas go with a swing, too.  

Containing only 5 ingredients, inspired by ingredients found in their own 3-acre walled kitchen garden, Sprigster is a non-alcoholic shrub infusion that encapsulates the joys of an English country garden and is a real treat to be enjoyed in the sunshine, or during the Chirstmas period when it will recreate the summer in a drink for you!

Carefully crafted from ingredients that can be found in abundance in a proper classic English garden, with notes of rhubarb, ginger, fennel seeds and gooseberry, the result? A complex, delightfully dry and refreshing drink.

Both Sprigster’s original blend and Sprigster Fizz, can act perfectly as a non-alcoholic alternative to wine, as a spirit substitute within a G&T or aperitif, or even as a deliciously premium soft drink option during the Christmas a New Year season!

The recommended retail price is £15 for Sprigster Fizz(75cl), £25 for the gift box or alternatively a full bottle of Sprigster (70cl) can be bought for just £26.
