Whisky gifts for a milestone birthday

With the UK still in lockdown, celebrating a milestone birthday is no easy feat. Pubs, bars and restaurants are closed, making it impossible to arrange a party. Non-essential shops are shut. And unless you live in the same household, gifts must be given from a safe social distance.

But not to worry.

Despite all of the restrictions, here at Whisky Tasting Company, we have the perfect way to show your nearest and dearest how much you care – with our milestone birthday whisky sets. These are a much cheaper alternative to buying a full 30, 40, or 50 year old bottle of whisky. Yet, they’re still incredibly luxurious and are a truly special gift to mark an important day in their life. 

Each set contains five 30ml measures, including a rare ‘milestone aged’ whisky, accompanied by a series of tasting cards and a whisky tasting mat. These come presented in a hand-made gift box, which can be personalised to include a message of your choice. And they can be delivered contact-free, directly to the recipient’s front door – safely, conveniently, and in time for their big day.

So, why not take a look today? And make their lockdown landmark birthday one to remember!

 

30 is one of the biggest turning points in a person’s life – it’s up there with graduating, first time house buys and babies. And as your loved one waves goodbye to their fun-filled 20s, and reluctantly embraces a new era of maturity, why not raise their spirits with some 30^th birthday whisky?

Our 30^th whisky birthday gift features a rare 30-year old single grain whisky, from Scotland’s Cameronbridge Distillery. Boasting a slightly nutty and vanilla-infused taste, with a lingering sweetness, it’s a delicious tipple – guaranteed to go down a treat with any 30 year old whisky lover.

The set also includes:

• The Arran Malt Aged 10 Years
• Tomintoul Aged 10 Years
• Glencadam Aged 10 Years
• The Ileach Single Malt

Priced at just £36.75 (which includes the cost of the personalisation), this is an affordable yet refined gift. One that is sure to make their 30^th memorable, despite being in the midst of a pandemic!

 

Once known as the gateway to middle-aged life, the big 4-0 is now regarded as the ‘Goldilocks Birthday’. Old enough to be mature, but young enough to still have an exuberant approach to life. And it’s the perfect milestone age to celebrate with a glass of luxurious 40^th birthday whisky!

This is one of our most popular milestone birthday gifts. The 40^th birthday set features a delectable single grain whisky, that has been matured for four decades by Cameronbridge – a little-known but large distillery in Fife. And it has a full and sweet flavour, that tingles the tongue with its zest and fruitiness.

Once again, the set also includes a selection of our favourite single malts (aged up to 10 years), including The Arran Malt, Tomintoul, Glencadam and The Ileach. And available for just £44.95, it’s a special treat for the 40 year old whisky lover in your life – that won’t break your bank in the process!

 

The big 5-0. Half a century. It’s kind of a big deal. Which is why, traditionally, people give gold as a special gift to mark the occasion. But if your loved one is a whisky lover, why not swap out gold jewellery for their favourite golden liquor instead – and treat them to some 50^th birthday whisky?

Our 50^th birthday set currently includes Five Decades Speyside Single Malt from the Tomintoul Glenllivet distillery. This is a special edition single malt, that was bottled to commemorate the 50^th anniversary of Tomintoul distillery, and it includes individual casks from five separate decades – 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995 and 2005. It’s a unique whisky, with a clean yet creamy taste, and is a notable gift for such a notable birthday.

Alongside Tomintoul’s Five Decades, the set also features single malts from four of Scotland’s famous whisky regions – including The Arran Malt, The Ileach, Glencadam and Tomintoul. Yet, despite being such a luxurious selection, it’s priced at just £48.95 including the personalisation.

Thanks to our fantastic range of milestone birthday gifts, shopping for a special age just got a whole lot easier. All of our whisky birthday sets can be ordered from the comfort of your own home and delivered – either to your own address or straight to the giftee – in a matter of just 2-4 days.
