Malt Whisky A discussion on how its made, drunk and the five basic styles of Malt.
Many people start with someone else’s favourite and finding it so bad they never try a malt again based on their initial trial.
This can include a sniffer tasting or be run as a full blown whisky tasting night! Though for these there is an element of cost – but there is advice on how to minimise this!!
