The Ultimate Boozy Countdown to Christmas
Christmas preparations are getting a sophisticated and spirited upgrade this year with the arrival of the highly anticipated Craft Gin Advent Calendar 2025. This 24-day alcoholic advent calendar is already flying off the shelves, propelled by an avalanche of glowing testimonials from gin enthusiasts across the UK.
What's Behind the 24 Doors?
Behind each numbered door, from the 1st to the 24th of December, lies a delightful surprise: a double measure of meticulously selected craft gin. The selection is a journey through the world of gin, featuring everything from classic dry styles to vibrant citrus notes, warming spiced varieties, and exclusive festive seasonal flavours. To add an element of daily discovery, seven of the gins are complete mysteries, only revealing their identity upon opening.
Priced at £95, this calendar offers exceptional value for money. Breaking it down, each premium double measure costs approximately £3.95, which represents a noticeable saving compared to the typical price of a double measure in a pub or bar.
Why Gin Lovers Are Raving
The calendar has been met with widespread acclaim. Reviewers consistently highlight the impressive variety and high quality of the gins, describing each small bottle as a mini tasting experience that can be enjoyed from the comfort of home. It transforms the evening ritual during December into a special moment of anticipation and enjoyment.
Beyond mere indulgence, the advent calendar is a clever and economical way for gin aficionados to explore a wide range of craft distilleries and flavour profiles without the commitment of purchasing a full-sized bottle of each. The miniature bottles are perfect for creating cocktails or sipping neat, making them a stylish addition to any home bar setup.
For those looking to create an even more impressive gift, the calendar is also available in special pairing bundles that include premium mixers or other festive accessories.
Don't Just Take Our Word For It
The public verdict is overwhelmingly positive. One thrilled customer wrote, "Oh happy 24 days! Found some new faves, and cracking value. Defo do again."
Another reviewer, who has made it a tradition, commented, "Ordered my advent calendar well in advance as they usually sell out very quickly…now a welcome tradition in our house." A third simply declared it the "Best countdown to Christmas there is!"
While this gin calendar is a standout option, the market offers alternatives for different tastes and budgets, such as the Virgin Wines' Mixed Wine Advent Calendar for £99 or Selfridges' Festive Mini Mince Pie Advent Calendar for £39.99. However, for a fun, flavourful, and boozy countdown, the Craft Gin Advent Calendar 2025 has firmly secured its place as a must-have festive treat.
