Whisky Lock

Whisky Reviews, News and Info from Great Britain.

From common every day drams to the exotic and the obscure. Focused on Scotch but also dabbling in Bourbon, English, Japanese, Gin and worldwide spirits.

The Whisky Lo[ch] was the name given to the enormous surplus of stock resulting from poor sales of Scotch Whisky in the 1980s when many distilleries including the prestigious Brora were mothballed. The Whisky Loch was a terrible time for all but sounds like a delightful place for a swim!

Whisky LOCK is the condition of being fixated and obsessed with tasting, learning about, searching for and talking about all things Whisky. Are you Whisky Locked?
