RAER Single Malt: Jackton Distillery bottles its first whisky under one of Scotland’s youngest female managing directors
Six years ago, Jaynie Kean helped fill the first casks at her family’s farm distillery in South Lanarkshire. She was 22. Now, at 28 and one of Scotland’s youngest female managing directors, she has put the distillery’s name on a bottle for the first time. That bottle is RAER Single Malt, The Inaugural Release, the…

Bruichladdich Greener Still: the Still Series returns after almost 20 years, and this time it’s the barley doing the talking
Bruichladdich has brought back the Still Series. That alone is news: the original opaque, colour-coded trio from the mid-2000s has a small cult following, and the distillery left the concept alone for nearly two decades. Greener Still is the fourth chapter, and it flips the whole idea on its head. Where the first three were…

The Glencairn glass: does the whisky world’s most-used tasting glass actually make a difference?
A Glencairn does not change a single molecule of what is in the bottle. Pour the same whisky into a Glencairn and into a straight tumbler and the liquid is identical. What changes is how much of that whisky reaches your nose, and that turns out to matter far more than most people expect. This…

Teeling Distillery tour review: the Dublin experience where you can bottle your own single cask
The best part of the Teeling Distillery tour isn’t on the tour. It’s the moment afterwards, standing under a neon “Bottle Your Own” sign, pulling your own whiskey straight from a cask, corking it, hand-labelling it, and walking out with a bottle nobody else in the world has. We filled a cask-strength Single Pot Still…

Jameson Distillery Bow St, Dublin: the Black Barrel Blending Class is the reason to find the laneway
Jameson Distillery Bow St. is Jameson’s original 1780 home in Smithfield, Dublin, now a visitor distillery with two bars, a serious shop and a full spread of tastings and classes.

Pearse Lyons Distillery review: the Dublin whiskey distillery built inside a church
There is a copper pot still sitting on the altar of a former Dublin church, framed by stained glass, and it is one of the more remarkable sights in Irish whiskey. That church is the Pearse Lyons Distillery, and we took the Legacy Tour to see whether the setting is the whole story or just…
