Yes you read correctly. Another SA whisky blog. With the interwebs already full of outstanding whisky blogs and sites, you may be asking “why another one?”
As I regularly read up on any whisky news and reviews that I can get my digital hands on, I noticed something. Of late there have been many noteworthy whisky news items coming out of South Africa. The most recent (or it was recent when I wrote this post) being that a South African whisky, Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky, won the award for the World’s Best Grain Whisky in the 2013 World Whisky Awards. With this trend I felt like another SA whisky blog thrown into the mix could only add to the wonderful exposure South African whiskies are getting.
I am most certainly not a whisky expert by any stretch of the imagination. I always say that I am but a mere enthusiastic amateur. This blog allows me to share my views on the various whiskies that I get to savour, as well as any whisky news or whiskies musing that I may have. As with any type of art form, whisky and whisky tasting is subjective. So as much as will share my thoughts and comments, the final verdict on a whisky will always lie with oneself. Feel free to leave comments on any of my reviews or ponderings with your own thoughts or observations.
