What is a Single Cask Whisky?
This month, The Whisky Club has pulled out all the stops to bring you two real treats. First up, having thrown the challenge to Graham Eunson from Tomatin Distillery to create something super special for our Members…
From Spain to Scotland
As everything old becomes new again, your grandma’s favourite tipple, sherry is becoming popular once more, and for us whisky lovers, this is a good thing.
North Korea + state-made whisky = epic curiosity
Of all the things North Korea could’ve launched this week, whisky comes as a pleasant surprise.
Whisky Production - Step 1 – Fermentation
This is where the alcohol is actually made. Barley grain is the main ingredient in single malt whisky and it is the starch in the grain that is turned into alcohol through the process of fermentation.
Whisky Production
There are four distinct steps in whisky production; fermentation, distillation, maturation and bottling and each of these steps influences the final outcome.
Gary’s Whisky Fruit Cake
Legendary whisky lover and long-time Club Member Gary Hn loves to bake almost as much as he loves whisky. So baking with whisky is pretty much his version of heaven!
Whisky Club Airlines Is Off To The USA… And Scotland!
The last couple of months have been huge for Whisky Club Airlines, sending lucky Club Members off on trips of a lifetime, with tours of GlenDronach, BenRiach and Glenglassaugh, as well as Tobermory and Bunnahabhain Distilleries. But the good news is we’re just warming up, and this month we’ve had to employ more pilots because we’ve got not one but two trips up for grabs!
Peckish? Feast With The Captain’s Reserve
OK, your extremely sessionable Glenlivet Captain’s Reserve has arrived (if you missed it or need a top up be quick to grab one of our last bottles here) and with it an amazing foodie heaven of opportunity for pairing its Cognac rich malty goodness with some of your favourite dishes.
Women In Whisky
What do the Boss of Scotch, our own co-founder and director of The Whisky Club, and a leading pioneer of the Australian Whisky Industry have in common?
Well, aside from great taste in malty goodness and a passion for taking it to the world, they’ve all been asked the same absurd question: “But do you actually drink whisky?”
That’s right – they’re all women!
Starward?! Straight to the Pool room!
If there’s one thing guaranteed to get the Aussie whisky world lit up, aside from The Whisky Club’s monthly whisky announcement of course, it’s the news of an impending Starward Projects release.
