For more than a decade, we have been producing our own Whisky Advent Calendars at KWM. In 2023, unsatisfied with the selection of 50ml whiskies available, we decided to start pouring our own selection of 28ml whiskies. To keep regulators happy, we can't call it an Advent Calendar, which it is not. It is a series five 5 whisky tastings, which you can purchase individually, or as a full set.
If you register for the Still Not An Advent Calendar Full Set, all 25 whiskies come in one box, which coincidentally looks a lot like an Advent Calendar... even though it's not. The Full Set also includes a KWM Whisky Advent Discount Card (good for the rest of this year and all of 2026) and a wee Glencairn glass. We call it 25 Days of Dram Fine Whisky!
The links below take you to the individual tastings, or the 'Still Not An Advent Calendar Full Set - All KWM 2025 Whisky Advent Tastings', on our tastings page, where you can register for them.

- Still Not An Advent Calendar Full Set - All KWM 2025 Whisky Advent Tastings
We try to balance the individual 5-whisky tastings, so there is a comparable mix of whiskies in each, but only one of them features a 44 year old!
The individual tastings are $75 each, and our "Still Not An Advent Calendar Full Set - All KWM 2025 Whisky Advent Tastings" costs $350, a savings of $25 over purchasing the tastings individually.
This year's Advent Tastings selection features an all-new range of 25 28ml whiskies, carefully curated by the team at KWM. There are no repeats from prior years. The lineup is primarily single malt Scotch, with an average age of roughly 19 years; the oldest whisky is 44 years of age.
You can join Andrew and Evan for the five live tastings over Zoom, or follow along at your own pace the next day or later on our YouTube and Facebook pages.
We also feature one whisky a day on our KWM Blog and Social Media beginning December 1.
