Exactly what I set out to do 4 years ago was become a brand that people just could rely upon for quality so thanks Gordon

@OConnellWhiskey can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned. I'm hitting this Amontillado Cask again tonight.

@Sav70 @kittyhen @PaulOBrien10 @BertSmedley @BrianVolkert @OConnellWhiskey @cb_phil @j_k357 @craftbeersoflre @Imagicranium @Bilcro @BADONICUS Thanks lads. Batch 5 and upcoming Batch 6 are using 13 year olds graining Rye for 3-4 years. It definitely gave it slightly more depth when we made that switch

@DavidMarra @Bill_Linnane This was proposed by the Irish whiskey Guild for changes to the file formally known as the technical file. Similar to a DOCG etc. It‘s a long shot I would say

@Michel_Nilsson @Bill_Linnane I mean that they are making profit because Bills stories lately are about closures 😀

[Daithí O'Connell @WhiskeyMerchant]

@Bill_Linnane @fintheirishman Never even heard of those awards. I wonder did anyone ever else even enter

[Daithí O'Connell @WhiskeyMerchant]

@Graham__Coull BLT no further discussion required

[Daithí O'Connell @WhiskeyMerchant]

@Bill_Linnane Ah ok I was confused because the musings were below a piece about IDL .. hadn’t realized Diageo had made their distiller redundant

[Daithí O'Connell @WhiskeyMerchant]

@PaulOBrien10 @OConnellWhiskey @no21offlicences @cb_phil @j_k357 @Sav70 @mjpm67 @BertSmedley @BrianVolkert @Imagicranium @Bilcro @BADONICUS She’s a beauty.. a vatting of 10-12year grain in a fantastic Madeira cask , enjoy
