2SeaAll Posted October 7, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 7, 2022 We are considering choosing the Olife House Select alcoholic beverage package option for one of our upcoming Caribbean cruises - then upgrading to the Premium Select Package. In the past we have sailed Oceania sans alcoholic beverage packages. Does anyone know if the Premium Package wine list is upgraded from the House Select Package wine list?? This will be an experiment for us, as it will be our first Silver status cruise with prepaid gratuities; we will also have the Shareholder OBC benefit. The shore excursions in the Caribbean are not compelling, so the premium beverage package may be our best alternative use of OBC. We have previously brought favorite bottles on board and paid corkage; we know that in any case Oceania wine list bottles will be inferior to our curated selection, but expect to enjoy full bar included access. Absent this choice we will take cash and default to Spa/Gift Shop to burn our OBC. Thanks for any insights you can provide.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pinotlover Posted October 7, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 7, 2022 This is simple. The by the glass Wine list is the same regardless of which drinks package you choose. One gets a bottle discount, depending upon package they purchased, for any separate bottle they buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted October 7, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 7, 2022 You may be better off just to do the Cruise only fare Take the wine of your choice onboard , pay the corkage 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare oskidunker Posted October 7, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 7, 2022 The Pommery champagne is really good. But $85.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the OP, it is not full bar on the Premium Package, there are a lot of top shelf choices that you don't get with it. It's those on the Bar Menu. I'm a scotch drinker and recently on Regatta they had Oban, Balvennie, Macallan 12, and a couple of others that were not on the package, but you could have Macallan Quest, Glenfiddich & Dalwinnie 15, which wasn't bad.

And just for comparison sake, on Azamara even if you purchase the premium spirits package Dalwinnie (a personal favorite of mine) is only available at an additional charge.
