read moreWhisky Lounge Review #2, possible the best so far for Batch 2, the Tweeddale 12 year old… thank you @TWLJoe.

I, of course, fully agree with Joe as it is a prejudice that raises itself regularly at whisky festivals. You know it is almost unbelievable but we have even had people walk past our stand turning down free...
