There is nothing better than coming downstairs during the holidays and opening an Advent calendar. This is especially true when there is whiskey inside.

Now, maybe you pace yourself and open the calendar after five o-clock, but who am I to judge?

When purchasing a whiskey Advent calendar, keep in mind your budget and the content. Typically, the calendar has 24 days. If half of the drams in the lot are whiskies you like, it may be worth the purchase, but if not, don’t bother wasting your money.

Be on the lookout for calendars that offer additional swag, like branded glasses, coasters, or hats. Also, check the distillery’s websites for branded Advent calendars. These calendars may offer the best bang for your buck if you like a certain brand.

My best Advent calendar purchases came with guides or links to interactive videos and tasting notes. These additions enhance your tasting experience and are very informative.

Here are the best whiskey Advent calendars according to The Bourbon Flight for 2022 and where to purchase them.
