Each of the calendars is filled with 24 3cl bottles that have been hand-labelled and sealed with wax, so that opening up the unique advent calendar each day throughout December really feels like you're getting a present. What you can expect to find inside the countdown calendars are spirits like Hine Antique XO Premier Cru Cognac, Herradura Añejo Tequila and Chase Marmalade Vodka. Rather than opening up this advent calendar first thing in the morning like you may have done as a kid, it might be best to leave these ones until the evening. Each of the [premium advent calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/25-days-of-twistmas) features a whimsical illustration by artist Duncan Beedie. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Adult Advent Calendars:** Create advent calendars targeted towards adults with unique and high-quality products, such as boozy samples. - **Craft Spirit Sampling:** Offer small-sized samples of premium spirits for consumers to try a variety of products and discover new favorites. - **Artistic Packaging Design:** Collaborate with artists to create whimsical illustrations and aesthetically appealing packaging for products like advent calendars. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Alcohol Beverage:** Alcohol brands can capitalize on the growing trend of adult advent calendars by offering their own versions filled with small samples of premium spirits. - **Gift and Specialty Retail:** Retailers can tap into the demand for unique and luxurious advent calendars by curating and selling a variety of adult advent calendars. - **Art and Design:** Artists and designers can collaborate with brands to create visually captivating packaging for advent calendars and other alcohol products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Festive Cocktail Calendar Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whitebox-cocktails-advent-calendar.md) - [Boozy Christmas Cocktail Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/12-cocktails-of-christmas.md) - [Pink Gin Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-gin-advent-calendar.md) - [Luxurious Treat Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cartwright-butler.md) - [Haute Beauty Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boozyshop-advent-calendar.md) - [Worldly Wine Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-advent-calendars.md) - [Premium Candy Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anthon-berg-advent-calendars.md) - [Non-Alcoholic Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonalcoholic-advent-calendars.md) - [Premium Bourbon Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bourbon-advent-calendar.md)
