24 doorsEditors’ pickHow to choose a bourbon advent calendar
- 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
Start from this season's, from the ones we have opened
1 of the 2 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.

The best value among the calendars here that we have rated this season, rated 4/5, $270, 24 doors. One of the few whiskey calendars that tells you exactly what you are drinking, and the list holds up: New Riff's bottled-in-bond rye, Pinhook at cask strength, Frank August and Four Roses Small Batch are bottles a bourbon drinker would buy anyway. Glen Scotia, Amrut and Bellevoye add some range, but this is an American whiskey calendar first. The 50 ml vials and the two Glencairns make it a genuine tasting set rather than a novelty.
