These whisky filled Christmas crackers are guaranteed to get you merry

CHRISTMAS IS well underway over at the Lakes Distillery, where they have just unveiled their latest booze-based creation: whisky crackers.

It goes without saying that these crackers are strictly for adults only but don't let that put you off making it a December 25th to remember - or forget, depending on how many you open.

The latest addition to the distilleries distinctively festive selection of alcoholic treats, each luxury Christmas cracker comes included with a 5cl miniature bottle of The One Whisky.

Newly-designed for 2018 the One whisky is complex yet balanced with aromas of fresh fruits, treacle, light spice and gentle peat-smoke.

The taste, meanwhile, is rich and balanced with notes of honey-roasted nuts, spice, and hints of dried fruits and wood smoke.

Priced at £5.95 a pop, the whisky cracker is perfect as an adult stocking filler or for the big meal itself.

It does come with a word of warning though: despite appearing, to all intents and purposes, as an ordinary cracker, these bad boys are not designed for pulling.

To be clear: this cracker does not go pop, no matter how hard you pull it.

The latest Christmas-led whisky innovation from the distillery, other festive treats include whisky-filled baubles.

An award-winning distillery which represents the largest of its kind on English shores, Lakes Distillery is based near Bassenthwaite Lake in the stunning surrounds of the Lake District.

Christmas booze hounds looking for something a little creamier, meanwhile, might want to consider shelling out on the eye-catching Baileys advent calendar.

A must-buy for fans of Irish cream liqueur, the calendar contains three bottles of Baileys along with 21 delightful Baileys Irish cream truffles.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas…
