Featured Whisky Deals to Savour
Here are the standout whisky offers that are worth your attention before the sales end.
Bulleit Bourbon Frontier Whiskey
Previously priced at £33.25, this Kentucky bourbon is now available for just £23 on Amazon, representing a saving of over 30 per cent. John Clarke named it the best bourbon whisky, praising its high rye content which imparts a characteristic spicy tang alongside notes of honey, vanilla, and nuts. Inspired by a 150-year-old recipe and presented in a traditional bottle, it makes for an excellent Christmas gift.
McConnell's 5-Year-Old Sherry Cask Finish
This Irish whisky, highlighted as the best in its category, has been reduced from £49.47 to £42—a 15 per cent discount. The flavour profile is rich and sophisticated, with Clarke noting "a rich and sophisticated sherry-accented flavour that helps to highlight the complex notes of dried fruit, cocoa and spice". The combination of dried figs, dark chocolate, and spice makes it a perfect festive dram.
Nomad Outland Whisky
Hailing from Speyside, Scotland, this whisky is now priced at £29.74, down from £35. After testing, Clarke described it as a "beautifully smooth whisky" where dried fruit and honey flavours are "complemented by the very distinctive sherry bouquet". This 15 per cent saving offers a unique option for those torn between purchasing whisky or sherry, as it genuinely provides the best of both worlds.
