Whisky stocking fillers don’t have to mean panic-buying a miniature at the supermarket.
We’ve gathered some of our favourite options, from the exceptional value to the break-the-bank, featuring drams disguised as decorations, a whisky gingerbread house, and all kinds of useful little extras for the person whose whisky shelf has become a whisky room.
You just need to bring the wrapping paper.
Whisky stocking fillers and Christmas gifts worth unwrapping
Tasting sets and whisky gift sets
Buying for someone still finding their whisky feet? A tasting set lets them explore several drams before committing to a full bottle. They’re equally handy for seasoned whisky fans who enjoy trying something new.
Our whisky gift sets offer bottles with extras such as glasses and miniatures, while the gift finder can help narrow the field. Less scrolling, more Christmas sorted.
Whisky Baubles
Decorations are nice. Decorations that pour are better. These six baubles each hold a 30ml dram of whisky, ready to hang on the tree or tuck into a stocking. Finally, something to look forward to when it’s time to take the decorations down.
Whisky Crackers
Six Christmas crackers, each containing a 30ml wax-sealed whisky dram, a paper hat, and a joke. A considerable improvement on a tiny screwdriver and a plastic moustache. Share them around the Christmas dinner table and they will gladly agree to the ridiculous hat.
Gingerbread Whisky House 20cl
A gingerbread house with real whisky inside, rich in sweet gingerbread spice, making a thoroughly festive little gift for someone who likes their drinks warming and sweet. No construction required.
Glenfarclas 15 Year Old Gift Set
A full 70cl bottle of Glenfarclas 15 Year Old, plus miniatures of the 25 Year Old and the powerful 105. A cracking introduction to this Speyside distillery’s rich, sherried style, with a bottle for under the tree and two little extras for the stocking. Or keep the set together and let them conduct some very important Christmas research.
Glasses and whisky accessories
A good whisky glass is a gift they’ll use long after the Christmas bottles are empty. Browse our whisky accessories for glassware, books, and even a whisky jigsaw. Something to keep their hands busy while they explain why they can definitely taste pineapple.
Wear your whisky loyalties
From accessories to accessorize… Deck the whisky lover in your life out with snazzy whisky-themed clothes like this hilarious Boutique-y Lovely Horse T-Shirt from That Boutique-y Whisky Company (inspired by one the best segments of Father Ted ever aired) or this charming Master of Malt Beanie. We’ve got lots of other colour options and merchandise to check out. They’ve already got whisky on the brain. Might as well put a hat on it.
Urban Bar Calabrese Bullet Shaker
For the whisky lover who makes a mean Whisky Sour. Developed with bartender Salvatore Calabrese, this Japanese steel shaker has a built-in spring that acts as a whisk, helping create a silky texture in egg white cocktails. A fine upgrade for their home bar, with obvious benefits when you visit.
Jack Daniel’s goodies
Jack Daniel’s knows its way around a gift pack. The Guitar Case Gift Pack gives its Tennessee whiskey a suitably rock ’n’ roll home, while the Gentleman Jack Gift Set with Wash Bag adds something useful for their next trip. Whiskey and better-organised toiletries. Christmas covers a lot of ground.
Drinks by the Dram Tastings Journal
For anyone who says, “What was that brilliant whisky I tried?” as often as they walk into a room and forget why they did. This pocket-sized journal keeps tasting notes, favourites, and future bottle purchases in one place. Pair it with a tasting set to give them something to write about.
Angel Share Artworks Whisky Tasting Chart
Something for the wall beside the whisky shelf. This A1 chart maps out 175 tasting notes across eight categories, with a colour chart for comparing what’s in the glass. A handsome, practical gift for anyone keen to get beyond “smoky”, “sweet”, and “yes, another one of those”.
The Art in Whisky
For a proper splash-out present, this leather-bound book explores whisky through the photography of Jon Purcell, with a foreword by Richard Paterson. One for the coffee table, with suitably sturdy wrapping paper.
Le Nez du Whisky
A substantial gift for someone who takes their sniffing seriously. This kit contains 54 aromas found in whisky, from peat and oak to coconut and honey, plus a guidebook featuring wisdom from Charles MacLean.
Urban Bar Seal Bottle Opener
We could tell you about the Japanese steel or the recess underneath for removing standard screw caps. Useful things, both. But we all know why you’re here. It’s shaped like a seal. Look at it.
Gifts that last beyond Christmas
Pour & Sip and MoM Prime
A Pour & Sip gift subscription delivers five expert-picked 30ml whiskies each month, giving them fresh discoveries long after the tree has gone. Choose three, six, or twelve months and let us handle the whisky selection.
For the regular bottle buyer, MoM Prime brings a year of free express delivery on UK orders, exclusive early access to selected bottles, and members-only discounts. A useful present for someone whose basket is never empty for long.
Master of Malt Gift Vouchers
If their wish list is highly specific and subject to change without notice, let them choose. Our gift vouchers never expire and earn 5% interest annually, so there’s no rush to settle on a bottle. They get exactly what they want. You avoid buying the one whisky they’ve already got three of.
