IWS Bottlings

Postby Dram Good Research » Tue Feb 28, 2012 10:30 am

Anyone know who best to speak to to ask about special bottlings exclusively for the IWS? I know Cooley have done a couple in the past, but it's been a while since we've seen any new additions in the Whisky Bible...

Hi DGR,

Unfortunately we had nothing last year but we did purchase a few casks so a few years down the line we hope to have at least an annual bottling. If we do get a chance to get our own bottling this year it will probably be later on in the year as there is nothing on the cards currently.

I'll get in contact with you by email also.

Hi Adrian - thanks for confirming, do give me a kick once something manifests and of course I'd be happy to get it in front of Jim for inclusion!

With all the activity at whiskyblenders. com there may be a few additions.

It was! Scored a tidy 90.5, though was usurped by it's brother in arms, The Irishman Cask Strength which managed 94.5...

Waiting to hear back from Bernard to see if he has anything new in mind this year...
