The Curious Drinker Gin 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. Green is the better side of the median, red the worse; the median is printed so you can disagree.

Our The Curious Drinker Gin Advent Calendar 2026 review
Our verdict
Twenty-four 5 cl gins from small distillers from Jersey to Hanoi, all named with region and strength. One door is a 26% sloe liqueur, and anyone wanting the famous names should look elsewhere.
Reviewed by Max Zeshut · 2026 season · How we review
What works
- All 24 gins named, with region and ABV
- Small distillers you rarely see in a supermarket box
- 5 cl doubles, not 3 cl tasters
What does not
- One door is a 26% sloe and damson liqueur
- Few of the names will be familiar, by design
