Santa's keeping a £10,000 secret. Can you guess what's in the bottle?

Santa's keeping a £10,000 secret. Can you guess what's in the bottle?

With just 45 days until Christmas, we have a Secret Santa challenge for you which could make you £10,000 merrier. Just correctly guess the mystery flavour of Dutch Barn Orchard Vodka’s new limited edition ‘Secret Santa’ variant, launching today (10 November 2026), and you could stand a chance of being the lucky winner of a most desirable Christmas bonus: a single prize of £10,000.

Dutch Barn Orchard Vodka, the award-winning sustainable vodka, part-owned by superstar comedian Ricky Gervais, is created from windfall apples grown in Yorkshire and bottled on site in, of course, a Dutch barn.

This season they’ve introduced a delicious twist on the seasonal merry making. Ricky and team are excited to launch a special festive flavour which is labelled simply as ‘Secret Santa’.

Each bottle comes with a QR code enabling you to access the Secret Santa online portal and enter your guess as to the rather delectable flavour which lies within. All correct entries will be placed in Santa’s ‘hat’ and his elves will randomly pick one lucky winner of the prize bonanza. In truth, though, everyone who tastes this rather special creation is a winner as experiencing this new vodka will make it all worthwhile.

Don’t keep this to yourself. Forget the usual socks, chox, or smellies. If you are involved in buying a Secret Santa gift for friends or workmates, what could be more fitting? It’s also the perfect host gift when you’re a party guest. It’s a present that comes with a little festive mystery – and potentially a very big surprise in the near future for the recipient. It even comes with a festive gift label.

When it comes to giving, this gift wins hands down.
