Finding the perfect Christmas present for whisky enthusiasts just became remarkably straightforward, thanks to a standout discovery at Not On The High Street. A meticulously curated Single Malt Whisky Gift Set, priced at an accessible £37.95, is capturing the attention of shoppers seeking a thoughtful and impressive gift.
What Makes This Whisky Set Special?
This gift set is far more than just a collection of miniatures. It offers a complete tasting experience, beautifully presented in an elegant box that can be personalised with up to four lines of text. Inside, the recipient will find a journey through Scotland's famed whisky regions.
The set includes five distinct 30ml bottles of Scottish single malt whisky, each accompanied by its own individual tasting card to guide the drinker through the flavours and characteristics. Adding to the immersive experience is a detailed tasting mat adorned with scenic landscape images from across Scotland.
The five featured whiskies are:
- Arran Barrel Reserve Island Single Malt (43%)
- Speyburn Aged 10 Years Speyside Single Malt (40%)
- Old Pulteney Aged 12 Years Highland Single Malt (40%)
- Finlaggan Islay Single Malt (40%)
- Lindores MCDXCIV Lowland Single Malt (46%)
Overwhelmingly Positive Customer Reviews
The set has earned a stellar 4.8 out of 5 stars from a substantial 476 reviews on Not On The High Street, with customers frequently praising its presentation and quality.
One delighted buyer commented, "I purchased this as a Christmas present for my husband. He was really pleased and has already started tasting them! Delivery and packaging was really good."
Another review highlighted the elegance of the set, calling it a "beautiful elegant gift in a stunning presentation box," and commended the seller for their exceptional helpfulness with delivery.
A recurring theme in the feedback is its suitability for the true connoisseur. One shopper noted, "This is the perfect gift for the whisky lover in your family. Complete with whisky notes, it includes unusual whisky which cannot be purchased from the local supermarket."
Alternative Gift Options and Minor Criticisms
For those considering other options, the market offers several compelling alternatives. The Drinks by the Dram 12 Dram Whisky Collection provides a broader exploration with twelve different 30ml wax-sealed drams for £34.95 at Master of Malt.
Alternatively, Fortnum and Mason offers the House of Suntory Trio for £37.50, featuring Japanese spirits including Haku Vodka, Toki Whisky, and Roku Gin.
While feedback for the Single Malt Whisky Gift Set is overwhelmingly positive, a small number of reviewers mentioned that the personalisation service could be improved, with one stating the text was "barely readable." Another felt that while the selection was good, it "doesn’t seem to match the price."
However, these critiques are far outweighed by positive experiences, with many confirming it as a beautifully packaged, professional-looking product that makes for a perfect and highly recommended Christmas gift.
The Single Malt Whisky Gift Set is available for purchase directly from Not On The High Street or from The Whisky Tasting Company.
