Limited edition & special gift ideas The hardest part about gifting these special drinks is giving them away.

It’s the time of year when producers unlock their cellars and unleash limited edition inventions, special one-offs, and new products crafted with festive flair. These festive spirits, limited edition boxes, special wines, and craft beer gift packs are all the hard work done for you.

Limited Edition Spirits Christmas Gifts

Gift ideas: limited edition spirits

Giving them a limited edition of their favourite tipple is a great way to elevate an already personal gift that they’ll love. There’s plenty to celebrate with these limited edition releases from some beloved spirit labels. Like this extremely rare Glen Moray 25YO Portwood Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky released only as a limited edition, each bottle unique, individually numbered and stored in a classic wooden box.

Special Wine Christmas Gifts

Gift ideas: special wine

Receiving wine is like getting two presents. First when you unwrap it and second time when you open the bottle. Dan Murphy’s Norwood Wine Merchant Kathy Gertau’s pick of the bunch is Ladies Who Shoot Their Lunch Shiraz, “A full-bodied shiraz, dark cherry fruits with savoury spice and pepper. It’s a great magnum to pop in the cellar for a few years — if you can wait that long!”

Craft Beer Christmas Gifts

Gift ideas: craft beer & cider

Whether you’re buying for the craft curious or the full-blown beer obsessed, these gift packs are a no-brainer for any beer nut. The Craft Collection Mixed Six Pack is a great place to start. Like a tasting paddle at home, it features six hand-selected premium craft beers so they can explore each unique style. And the wide selection of flavours means it’s a sure fire winner with everyone.

Cellar Release Wine Christmas Gifts

Gift ideas: Cellar Release wine

Dan Murphy’s Cellar Release program is years of hard work done for you, making these bottles an extra special gift idea. Our expert panel selects wines and stores them in a light, temperature, and humidity-controlled cellar until they’re perfectly aged and ready for you to enjoy. From this season’s releases Wine Merchant Ciara Madill from our Bicton store recommends Penfolds Bin 138 Shiraz Grenache Mataro 2013. “Everyone knows Penfolds and there's a good reason — they're an absolute stalwart and an icon of Australia.”
