Now that we’ve crossed into December, Christmas planning is in full swing and year-end parties are filling up our Google calendars in double time.
Of course, the festive season wouldn’t be complete without gift exchanges. But what if you’ve already exhausted all your ideas for presents?
To keep the conversations and laughter flowing, Cellarbration is having a drive-thru warehouse sale where you can find huge discounts on drinks, as well as alcoholic gift packs from just S$24.

With over 1,000 items on sale till 31 Dec 2022, you’ll be sure to find something for all your booze-loving pals — and yourself, of course.
Before late December arrives, some of us may still be busy chionging last-minute deadlines that exhaust us to no end.
So when the festive season finally rolls around and parties are in full swing, an alcohol gift set could be a fitting congratulatory reward for surviving the year.
Cellarbration has plenty of those available at their Christmas Warehouse Sale, from whisky to gin to wine. Some of them even come with accessories like drinking glasses, such as the Singleton of Dufftown 12-Year-Old Twin Gift Pack.

Packed in a bag the same shade of blue as the bottle’s label, this set comes with two bottles of single malt scotch whisky and two glasses for a couple to clink together as they delve into long conversations late into the night.
Those who enjoy surprises will love the Advent Calendars from That Boutique-y Gin Company and That Boutique-y Whisky Company, each of which contains 24 drams of gin or whisky.

For every day leading to Christmas, your giftee can snag a different bottle by opening a tiny ‘door’ the corresponding number of the date, with no two drinks being the same.
Besides being a quirky and fun present, it can also double up as a playful and festive standee to decorate the house for festive gatherings.
For wine lovers, get them the Maison Castel Cabernet Sauvignon Festive Gift Pack, which includes a bottle opener and wine glass. This ensures that they have everything they need to pop off the cork and indulge in a drink ASAP.

Since these gifts are already neatly packed for you, all you have to do is smack a big bow on it, add a handwritten note with a heartfelt message, and you’re good to go.
The festive season gives us a reason to finally meet those friends we’ve not seen all year. With months’ worth of stories to catch up on, a drink is the second-best companion – after your buddies, of course – for any heart-to-heart conversation this December.
Depending on the mood, the right drink will help chats last long into the night.
There’s nothing more classic than a Scotch whisky. Smooth and rich, with notes of honey, vanilla, and apple, the Chivas Regal 12 Years is a choice you can’t go wrong with.

Gins may be an acquired taste, but ask anyone who enjoys pouring a bottle of Hendrick’s and they’ll tell you that they’ve not looked back since.

If tomato-based Italian dishes like lasagna, pizza, and spaghetti are on your Christmas menu, consider having a bottle of Chianti Classico from Castello di Albola on the table.

Since New Year and Chinese New Year are just around the corner after Christmas, it makes perfect sense to stock up on drinks beforehand to keep all your guests happy and sated.
With so many choices out there, it can be daunting to pick the ones you want to purchase, especially if you don’t already have a specific request or go-to option.
Cellarbration takes care of this concern by offering free samples for customers to try before making a decision at their Christmas Warehouse Sale. Just look out for a member of their team at a wine barrel to get a taste of up to 50 bottles or seek recommendations for any occasion.
