One for the Sydney-siders: The Glendronach has teamed up with Gildas Wine Bar in Surry Hills for a sensational paired tasting menu. Full details here: whiskyandwisdom.com/glendronach-x-…


Seeing the election result in the USA, I poured myself a dram of Wild Turkey 10yo. Definitely not to celebrate the result.... I just wanted to appreciate something the Americans got right. 😉


Our latest distillery profile piece takes an indepth look at the @KanosukeWhisky distillery in Japan, plus some of the current releases. For fans of Japanese whisky, this is one to watch.... whiskyandwisdom.com/kanosuke-whisk…


For Glendronach fans - if you haven't heard, the brand has had a "refresh" with new labelling. The core range of the 12, 15, & 18yo's are the first expressions to be re-packaged, & there's some interesting info on the labels! Here's the story... whiskyandwisdom.com/glendronach-a-…


Melbourne, Adelaide, Katoomba, Perth, Brisbane, Wollongong, Hobart, Canberra, Launceston….and we return to Sydney for the last hurrah. Get amongst it - one of the most informative and tasty whisky events going around…

Could Angel's Envy be the bourbon that gets Scotch drinkers to pick up a glass from something across the Atlantic? It's a fascinating bourbon that does things a little differently. Our latest piece takes a look behind the scenes: whiskyandwisdom.com/angels-envy

You know the quality of content on free-to-air TV is bad when people would rather watch reels on their phone of other people opening and unpacking a box of whisky that’s just been delivered in the mail.


Just read a PR piece on the new Benbecula distillery, and how the owner “discovered an old recipe”. It’s barley, yeast and water, right? 🤔


Our latest article and review looks at the Bruichladdich distillery and their new 18yo and 30yo releases. If you're a fan of the Classic Laddie, there's a lot to like here! whiskyandwisdom.com/bruichladdich-…


Our latest piece at W&W looks at the latest Australian whisky to come to market with a price tag < $100. It's a malt whisky (not a blend with grain), but the spirit comes from two distilleries. Link to full article is in our bio...

I visited the new #Macallan distillery recently, but it was a difficult process & the distillery's approach to tourism is unique. That said, it is an amazing distillery to visit. If you're planning on visiting there anytime soon you might find this helpful whiskyandwisdom.com/visiting-macal…

E150a is to #whisky what 192kbps is to MP3 song files. Who’s with me?


(2 of 2) The offerings are either the insanely-priced items that only the First Class travelers can afford, or they’re just the same whiskies you can buy regularly but with a two-week finishing period in a fourth-fill ex-sherry cask that tastes the same as the regular release.


(1 of 2) For the average whisky enthusiast, is there *really* anything to get excited about in the Travel Retail section anymore when you pass through an airport?
