INDEPENDENT BOTTLERS ARE A UNIQUE BUSINESS MODEL THAT EVOLVED
ALONGSIDE THE SCOTCH WHISKEY BUSINESS. As Forbes.com com writer Karla
Alindahao recently stated
[https://www.forbes.com/sites/karlaalindahao/2019/01/31/best-independent-bottlers-2019/#4beca636a4b4]
(click and read!),
"For those who aren’t familiar, independent bottlers are not to be
confused with distillers. They do not make their own whisky. Instead,
they source and select special barrels from a number of distilleries
so they’re able to treat them as they see fit: Some buy new make and
mature the spirits themselves, while others keep an eye out for
particularly good casks of already matured whisky. Either way,
independent bottlers take their finds and bottle them. And because the
barrel selection process is thorough, consumers almost always get
spectacular limited-edition Scotch—most of them rare and hard to
find, considering that the yield for each cask is only a few hundred
bottles. At best."
We've been collecting them for years. You know those bottles on the
shelves you don't recognize? Probably independent bottlers. Those
shuttered distilleries or distilleries that generally only make
whiskies for blending? Independent bottlers put those out so you can
taste them.
Join us for an interesting couple of hours of tasting and discussing
some really great whisky you probably have never had before! You'll
get SIX (6) pours of whisky worth anywhere from $90-$150 at regular
pricing (depending on the selection), for just $65! The whiskies will
range in style from all over Scotland.
