I have posted my quick guide on how to taste whisky and a range of tasting notes. If you are interested in holding a tasting, feel free to drop me a note. Over the last four years, I have held two or three tastings per year at St Cross College, plus tastings for Exeter, St John’s, and Said Business School students. I can plan a wide-range of tasting types, from basic introductory/general tastings to single distilleries flights, and can meet a range of budgets.

My personal favorite online destination for whisky is The Whisky Exchange. They have one of the best selections of specialty whiskies that I have found, they deliver quickly throughout the UK, and are very knowledgeable about their products!

No Jack Daniels in your favorite whiskies?
Nope, but it does make a good whiskey and coke.
