Gin advent calendars for 2026 are Virgin Wines' box: 24 craft gins at 5 cl (a double measure a door), every one named, with Warner's, Edinburgh, Rock Rose, Masons, Portobello Road and Brockmans among them, for 99.99 GBP. Three of the 24 are liqueurs rather than gin, and the list leans to flavoured gins over dry ones.

25 doorsEditors’ pickThe earlier gin calendars on this page (the 24- and 25-day premium boxes) are the record. For a whisky drinker the same shelf has five boxes this season; for someone who wants a bottle rather than a dram, the wine page's Christmas Day fizz is the only full bottle in any drinks calendar here.
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.
5 of the 5 here come with the maker's list of what is behind the doors — Premium Gin 24 day, Gin 25 Day Hard To Find and Premium Gin 25 Day 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.
1 of the 5 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.
