Behind the barrel blog
The whisky industry is constantly evolving, and with so many long-standing traditions, there is always something to discuss.
We are proud to introduce our new blog that we have named Behind the Barrel. This blog is an outlet for us to talk about emerging consumer trends, the status of our whisky batches, and ways to discuss how we plan to disrupt this history-steeped industry.
Factoid: Whisky (or Whiskey) is primarily made in Scotland, Ireland, Canada, India, Japan and the United States. The word “whisky” comes from the Gaelic word “uisge” which means “water”.
