David Jones' Champagne, Whisky and Wine Tasting Station

Overview

Let's face it. Shopping at this time of year can be a form of slow torture. But we have something that'll make braving the crowds worth it. From Tuesday, December 18 to Monday, December 24 (otherwise known as 'crisis shop week'), David Jones is offering up free drink and food tastings. So, if you're in the Bourke Street store, hunt down the pop-up for free sips of Mumm Grand Cordon, Chivas 18 scotch and St Hugo shiraz. Along with the tipples, there'll be food pairings to revive you for the rest of your shopping expedition.

And, while you're there, you can cross a few names off the present list. The new release Mumm Grand Cordon bottle is only available at a handful of locations around Sydney, including the little pop-up you'll be stationed at. This might just be the solution to the yearly question you and your siblings ask each other: what should we get mum and dad?

The Champagne, Whisky and Wine Tasting Station will be open from 12–3pm daily at David Jones Bourke Street, until Monday, December 24.
