It's that time of the year again: Christmas is around the corner and you need to start planning ahead for those relatives that are difficult to buy for. Fortunately drinking is synonymous with the holiday season and while we don't encourage blacking out, we'll turn a blind eye if you want treat a loved-one to a scotch on the rocks or a cheeky cocktail.

With that in mind, why not spoil a loved one with their favourite drop? Chances are they'll let you in on the action. So here are our go-to drinks if you're short of gift ideas. 

Johnnie Walker Song of Ice and Song of Fire 

Big on Game of Thrones? This cheeky collaboration with Johnnie Walker is prefect for those who both appreciate a fine drop and enjoy a collector's edition bottle. JW never disappoints. 

RRP: $69.99

Kraken Black Spiced Rum

Some of our favourite bottles aren't just about the drop. We also love a label that can double up as a decanter. Kraken's limited edition spiced rum sits in a ceramic bottle and won't look out of place on the alcohol cart in the hallway.
