5 Reasons Lucky & Punch Makes the Perfect Gift for Whisky and Comedy Fans

Lucky & Punch makes the perfect gift for whisky lovers and for fans of Michael Mittermeier because it is his first whisky, two St. Kilian single casks with 500 bottles of each, and because he signs bottles in person at the whisky unveiling. If you preorder with store pickup by the end of Friday, 16 October 2026, you collect the bottle in Munich on 23 October from 5:00 pm and have it signed on the night.

Key Takeaways

• Lucky & Punch is Michael Mittermeier's first whisky: two single casks from St. Kilian, 500 bottles of each, exclusively on Spiritory.

• A signed bottle is the gift for a big fan. Preorder with store pickup in Munich by the end of Friday, 16 October 2026.

• The person giving the gift collects the bottle at the whisky unveiling on Friday, 23 October 2026, from 5:00 pm at the Spiritory Shop, Stemmerhof, Plinganserstraße 6, 81369 Munich, where Michael signs it in person.

• Lucky (€59) is softer and sweeter, Punch (€59) is heavily peated, and the Set (€118) gives both, each plus shipping.

• Without a signature, home delivery ships from 26 October 2026, and every label still reads “by Michael Mittermeier”.

Tip: Not sure how much the person knows about whisky? Choose Lucky, the softer and sweeter bottle. Choose Punch for someone who loves smoke, or the Set if you want to give both.

A Bottle Signed by Michael Mittermeier Is the Gift for a Real Fan

Michael Mittermeier is one of Germany's best known comedians, so for his fans a signed bottle is more than a bottle of whisky. He signs in person at the whisky unveiling, live in front of the guests. There are two ways to get a signed bottle.

The first is to preorder with store pickup in Munich. Preorders opened on Wednesday, 14 October 2026, and this option runs until the end of Friday, 16 October. Your bottle goes to the Spiritory Shop, and you pick it up on the night and have it signed in person. The second is to buy one of the limited number of bottles on sale in the shop that evening, which he signs too. Because that number is limited, the preorder is the surest way.

Michael signs on site, so the person giving the gift collects the bottle at the unveiling. It does not arrive already signed. Our guide to getting a signed bottle of Lucky & Punch explains each step.

He Chose Both Casks Himself, and the Name Comes From His Comedy Club

Lucky & Punch is the first whisky Michael Mittermeier has created, made with St. Kilian Distillers in Rüdenau, Lower Franconia. He walked through the warehouse, tasted his way from cask to cask and chose the two casks that carry his name. Each bottle comes from exactly one cask, which is what single cask means.

The name comes from Lucky Punch, the comedy club he has run with his wife Gudrun since 2023 in Munich and Vienna. He split the name in two: Lucky for the softer, sweeter cask, Punch for the one that hits harder. That gives a comedy fan who has never tried whisky a story to start with, and it gives a whisky lover two very different casks. There are 500 bottles of each, sold only on Spiritory. More on the casks and the story is in Lucky & Punch: 7 Things to Know About Michael Mittermeier's First Whisky.

Lucky Is the Softer, Sweeter Bottle for Someone New to Whisky

St. Kilian Lucky by Michael Mittermeier 50cl comes from Cask Nr.9394, which previously held Moscatel de Setúbal, a sweet fortified wine from Portugal. It was distilled in July 2022 and is bottled at 46.7% ABV. It costs €59 plus shipping.

The official tasting notes mention honey, toffee, vanilla, fresh orange and caramelised walnuts, and describe the palate as soft, round and balanced. That makes Lucky a fitting gift for someone who is new to whisky or who likes sweeter flavours. Mittermeier himself calls it the softer, sweeter cask.

Punch Is Heavily Peated at 80 ppm, Made for Smoke Lovers

St. Kilian Punch by Michael Mittermeier 50cl comes from Cask Nr.5914, which previously held Tawny Port. It is heavily peated at 80 ppm, was distilled in November 2020 and is bottled at 48.3% ABV. It costs €59 plus shipping. Peat gives whisky a smoky character, and ppm measures how much.

The official tasting notes mention red fruit, ripe figs, ashy smoke and dark chocolate. Punch suits someone who already enjoys smoky whisky. Mittermeier calls it the cask that hits harder.

The Set Gives Both Bottles, and Home Delivery Ships From 26 October

St. Kilian Lucky & Punch by Michael Mittermeier Set holds both bottles and costs €118 plus shipping. It suits a fan who wants the full pair, or two friends who like different whiskies, since only together do the two bottles spell out the name of his comedy club. Michael Mittermeier signs the Set only when it is picked up in person at the whisky unveiling on 23 October, when he is there.

If you do not need a signature, or cannot be in Munich on 23 October, order with home delivery. Spiritory ships from 26 October 2026, and that includes every order placed after 16 October. Only the signature option through preorder ends then. Anyone in Europe can order, and every label reads “by Michael Mittermeier”, even without a signature by hand. All three bottles are on one page: Lucky & Punch on Spiritory.

Tip: The date that matters is the end of Friday, 16 October 2026. Until then you can preorder with store pickup for a signed bottle. After that, ordering stays open with home delivery from 26 October, and only the signature through preorder ends.
