Whiskey Crusaders

A symphony of malt, oak, tradition, and sometimes peat in every amber dram, echoing the essence of history. Visit the lands of the founders of whisk(e)y in Ireland & Scotland as well as England & Wales.  Learn about peated scotch from the beautiful ocean ravaged Islay to the gentler mostly unpeated whiskies of the mainland or visit the funkiness of Campbeltown.  Ireland started it all but almost disappeared after pioneering triple distilled blends, single pot stills, and Irish single malts.

A smooth, caramel-kissed spirit, embodying the bold heart of American tradition in each rich note. From the rye’s our founding fathers started with, to the bourbon of the Kentucky gentleman, the craft scene, wheat whiskey, blends, and to the emergence of the American single malt category there is a whiskey made in America to learn about.  Our neighbors to the North in snow covered Canada with their mysterious blends and the South from Mexico to Peru with their heirloom corn varietals.

A diverse chorus of flavors, from the beautiful softer whiskies of the far east including the meticulous malts of Japan, the younger subcontinental single malts of India, to the tropical extravagance of Taiwan and intense climate of Australia as well as other non-traditional whiskey countries such as France, Spain, Germany, Belgium, South Africa, Czech Republic, The Netherlands, etc. to explore.
