Spoiler warning. This page names the whiskies in all five of our 2026 whisky advent calendars. If you want every door to be a surprise, stop reading now. The names begin under the heading "Spoilers start here".
Two things we never reveal, even here: which whisky is behind which door, and which whisky is in the Christmas Day bauble. Every list on this page is in alphabetical order, not the order you will open the doors.
What is in a whisky advent calendar?
Behind every door is a 3cl glass bottle of whisky, which is 30ml. Each bottle has a QR code. Scan it with your phone and you get a tasting video and written notes for that exact whisky.
This table tells you what each calendar holds without naming a single whisky.

From this point on, every whisky is named. The lists are alphabetical. Where a whisky has a link, it opens our tasting notes for that dram.

Questions people ask
What is in a whisky advent calendar?
A different whisky behind every door. Ours hold 12 or 25 glass bottles of 3cl each, and every bottle has a QR code that opens a tasting video and notes for that whisky.
Which whisky is in the Christmas Day bauble?
We do not say. The 25 day calendars finish with a special whisky in a glass bauble, and it stays a surprise until Christmas Day.
Are the whiskies listed in the order of the doors?
No. The lists on this page are alphabetical. We never reveal which whisky is behind which door.
Do any whiskies appear in more than one calendar?
Yes, some do. If you are buying two calendars for the same person, the 12 Day Scotch and the 12 Day American have no whiskies in common.
How much whisky is in each calendar?
A 25 day calendar holds 25 drams of 3cl, which is 75cl in total. A 12 day calendar holds 12 drams of 3cl, which is 36cl.
Is every whisky in the calendar different?
Yes. Every door in a calendar holds a different whisky.
Can I read the tasting notes before I buy?
Yes. Follow the links in the lists above to read our tasting notes. The tasting videos are opened with the QR code on each bottle.
