. . . having provided original whisky ( and other quality spirits) reviews over the last five years, I have continually refused freebies from the drinks Industry so as to maintain my status as an independent reviewer. Over the years many malt-mates have said how much they would like to buy me a dram as a thank you for all the information and entertainment.

Now malt-mates can buy me a virtual-dram, but I must stress, just a wee dram and nothing too expensive. A single dollar is more than plenty, . . . and I appreciate your support. Thanks malt-mates.
