Frequently asked questions

How do I know which calendar to pick?

Take a look at our incredible selection and see what tickles your taste buds! We have a range of calendars to choose from, including various whisky, gin, rum and vodka styles.

What makes the packaging eco-friendly?

This year Drinks by the Dram has reduced its calendar’s cardboard wastage by 50%, introduced 100% recyclable dram trays inside, and we’ve also removed the use of airbags in most of our 25-dram calendar packaging. And, as always, you can recycle both the outer cardboard shell and the glass bottles once you’ve enjoyed your calendar. The airbags are also recyclable.

Does each calendar have the same selection of drams as last year?

Every dram in the 2025 calendars has been lovingly handpicked by Drinks by the Dram's fabulous team specifically for this year’s releases. You may see some familiar faces but also some new treats to enjoy!

Can I see which goodies are inside before I buy?

Absolutely! Just view the calendar you’re interested in, and you can find out what’s inside – though we’ve scrambled the order, just to keep you on your toes.
