Some people travel over the holidays, while others stay at home to relax and enjoy festive foods and beverages. The ultimate vacation would probably involve some combination of those things, and for the whiskey lover, this has never been more possible than with Flaviar’s new whiskey advent calendar. This year, the whiskey experts at Flaviar have curated a world-spanning tour that turns each day of December into a fun whiskey tasting. Though it may seem premature to purchase an advent calendar in August, this one sells out every year, so you’ll want to snatch it up while you can. 

Flaviar Whiskey Advent Calendar 2024

Offering 24 whiskeys from top-tier distillers like Whistle Pig, Frey Ranch, Templeton, and more,  this is no ordinary whiskey tasting. Each year, the calendar features a theme, and this year’s theme aims to create a winter retreat at “Hotel Flaviar.”  Packaged in a large box that looks like a leather suitcase, the 2024 calendar is filled with two custom Glencairn whiskey glasses and 24 1.7-ounce glass vials of whiskey. Also included is an interactive booklet with text about each whiskey’s history, fun facts, and tasting notes (complete with a QR code to the website, where you can purchase bottles of the whiskies you enjoy). Sure, you could go ahead with your expensive family ski trip this December … or you could just stay home and try 24 bottles of whiskey.

The advent calendar also comes with a free one-year subscription to the Flaviar Black Membership, which gets you discounts on bottles, free shipping on certain items, and early access to some limited releases. And before you ask, yes, all 24 whiskeys would be discounted with the membership (which, again, is free). 

And don’t forget: The Flaviar Whiskey Advent Calendar is a known sellout risk, so we recommend placing your order now. Whether you’re a whiskey fanatic and want to enjoy this premium experience yourself or know somebody in your life who would cherish such a luxury, pre-orders are officially open. 

At the time of publishing, the price was $235.
