25 doorsHow to choose alcohol for men
- Step 01
Decide the format first: a dram, a glass or a can
Whisky calendars are wax-sealed 30 ml drams, one a day, from a bottler who keeps the line-up secret by design; wine boxes are 187 ml minis, a full glass, mostly with the list printed; the gin box is 5 cl a door, a double. Which of those the drinker wants decides the shelf before any price does.
- Step 02
Prefer a printed list, or know why there is none
49 of the 49 here come with the maker's list of what is behind the doors — 24 Days of Rum SBS Single Barrel Selection Advent Calendar 2026, Beer Cartel Beer Advent Calendar 2026 and Beer52 Craft Beer 2026 among them; 0 do not. On a whisky shelf the secret is the format, so buy on the bottler's record and the strength; on wine and gin the list is printed and worth reading.
- Step 03
Compare the price per door
Across the 49 here with a list price, a door costs from about $3 to about $36, and the median is about $5.54. That is 4 GBP a dram at the standard whisky box and 8 at the premium; the difference is the tier of the whisky, not the amount. How the door price is counted
- Step 04
Start from this season's, from the ones we have opened
49 of the 65 on this page are 2026 editions and every one carries a verdict from us. The earlier editions stay listed for the record; the grid puts this season first.
