Bulleit bourbon frontier whiskey: Was £33.25, now £23, Amazon.co.uk
Spirits writer John Clarke named this the best bourbon whisky in his review. “The high rye content gives it its characteristic spicy tang along with comforting notes of honey, vanilla and nuts,” he noted.
The whiskey hails from Kentucky, and its flavour was inspired by a 150-year-old recipe. The American bourbon is presented in a traditional bottle, which would make for a brilliant Christmas gift, too.
If that doesn’t sound good enough, it’s currently been reduced by more than 30 per cent.
McConnell's 5-year-old sherry cask finish: Was £49.47, now £42, Amazon.co.uk
McConnell’s five-year-old sherry cask finish whisky got a mention in our guide as the best Irish whisky, and this saving caught our attention. Now reduced by 15 per cent, it comprises oak, leather and clove.
John said it has “a rich and sophisticated sherry-accented flavour that helps to highlight the complex notes of dried fruit, cocoa and spice.” We think the combination of dried figs, dark chocolate and spice would make for a tasty festive dram.
Nomad outland whisky: Was £35, now £29.74, Amazon.co.uk
Hailing from Speyside in Scotland, this whisky is now reduced by 15 per cent. After testing it, John praised the bottle for being a “beautifully smooth whisky” and noted that the dried fruit and honey flavours are “complemented by the very distinctive sherry bouquet.”
If you’re torn between buying whisky or sherry this festive season, this saving may sway your decision. As John highlights: “It’s a whisky which will really does give you the best of both worlds.”
