12 Days of Top-Shelf Whisk(e)y
This advent calendar was the best of the best! And I enjoyed every last drop!
This year, I curated four different whiskey advent calendars to choose from. Each one was filled with either 12 or 24 delicious whiskies from all over the world. These whiskies ranged from everyday-sippers to high-end bottles and from finished ryes to peated single malt scotches. There was a little bit of everything in the advent calendars to help you find your new favorite whiskey! And for those of you who ordered one of the whiskey advent calendars, I hope you enjoyed yours as much as I enjoyed mine!
The advent calendar I chose for my countdown to Christmas was, of course, the 12 Days of Top-Shelf Whisk(e)y. This included 12 ultra-premium and rare Scotch, Bourbon, Rye and Irish whiskies with bottle costs ranging anywhere from $140-500. Seriously, they’re really top-shelf… that is, if you can find them. And I wanted to share my tasting notes with you! Even though I put together the advent calendars, I did my best to forget which whiskey was which so that I could taste through the whiskies blind. Below you’ll find my tasting notes for whiskies 1-12 from the 12 Days of Top-Shelf Whisk(e)y advent calendar. Hover your mouse over the image to find out what each whiskey was!
You can also find videos of each of these tastings!
