Master of Malt Favourite Whiskies Advent Calendar 2026 by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the record at build time and set against the median of the same season and the same kind of contents. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Where the record cannot support a figure, the page leaves it out rather than guessing.The definitions, one by one →Each figure against the median of this season's alcohol shelf — 51 calendars.

Our Master of Malt Favourite Whiskies Advent Calendar 2026 review
Our verdict
A genuinely top-shelf list: both 2026 Octomores, Laphroaig 18, Redbreast 18, Midleton Very Rare and a 24-year-old Auchentoshan are bottles few people open side by side. A handful of the drams are everyday malts, and a 3 cl measure is short for whiskies this old.
Reviewed by Max Zeshut · 2026 season · How we review
What works
- All 25 whiskies named in advance
- Two Octomores, Laphroaig 18, Redbreast 18 and Midleton Very Rare
- Eight drams aged 18 years or more
- 25 doors: Christmas Day included
What does not
- 3 cl tasters of whiskies that reward a longer pour
- Lagavulin 16 and Bunnahabhain 12 are easy to find by the bottle
