10 Winter Bottles Worth Sipping Into February

When the weather turns cold, your bar cart should warm things up. From rich whiskies to decadent creams and bright winter tequilas, these bottles from Chilled’s 2025 Holiday Gift Guide are built for long, cold nights and slow sipping… ideally in pajamas by the fireplace.

Here are 10 winter-perfect picks to carry you straight through February.

1. Trail’s End 10-Year Bourbon

This one is just built for winter. It’s rich and toasty with caramel, maple, vanilla, and warm oak—the kind of bourbon you sip slowly when it’s freezing outside. Whether you drink it neat or in an Old Fashioned, it’s a comfort pour in a bottle.

2. Buchanan’s Green Seal Blended Scotch Whisky

If “cozy” were a whisky, it would be this one. Soft smoke, honeyed malt, and a warming finish make it perfect for cold nights. It’s refined and balanced, great in a highball or simply poured neat while you wind down.

3. Camikara 8-Year Rum

Aged rum belongs in winter, and this one brings depth with dark sugar, toasted wood, spice, and dried fruit. It’s silky enough to sip, but bold enough to stand up in a hot buttered rum or rum Old Fashioned.

4. El Luchador Blanco 110 Proof

Winter cocktails love a high-proof base, and this bottle brings bright agave with serious power. It’s crisp, peppery, and perfect for spicy margaritas, Palomas, or sipping chilled—a great pick if you want a spirit that’s unapologetically bold.

5. Bulleit Rye Aged 10 Years

Bold rye spice, vanilla, dried orange peel, and charred oak make this rye a knockout for winter cocktails. It’s built for Manhattans, Boulevardiers, and anything stirred and boozy. The long finish warms you right up.

6. CHANDON Spritz

All winter richness needs balance, and this bottle brings it. Bright citrus, light botanicals, and sparkling lift make it perfect for brunch, spritz hour, or adding a little sunshine to grey January days.

7. Stella Rosa Pistachio Cream Liqueur

Dessert in a glass — but elegant. Pistachio, sweet cream, and a velvety texture make this the ultimate after-dinner winter sipper. It’s great over ice, in coffee, or as a base for festive dessert cocktails.

8. Indri-Trini Three Wood

A beautifully layered Indian whisky aged in a trio of cask styles. Expect warm spice, dried fruit, cocoa, and subtle oak. It’s unique, complex, and feels exactly like the kind of whisky you pull out when you want to impress someone.

9. Ole Smoky Butter Pecan Moonshine Cream

This is peak cozy-season energy. Sweet butter pecan, caramel, cream, and gentle warmth make it perfect for sipping by the fire or adding to hot chocolate, coffee, or espresso martinis. It’s coziness in a bottle.

10. The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Jamaica Edition

A tropical-meets-winter fusion. Classic Glenlivet smoothness gets a rum-cask twist, adding toffee, spice, and soft tropical fruit. It’s a winter Scotch with a little vacation energy, and it works.
