Whisky drinkers opinions please on the quality and value for money of English Whisky.?
I expressed interest at the outset in whisky from The English Whisky Co. I have not tried it because I was asked to buy a case of the stuff at what seemed to me a ridiculous price per bottle. I drink single malts from Scottish distilleries at a fair price. Any comments from unbiased fellow drinkers will be appreciated.(No slagging off remarks from our kilted brethren please!).
email sent by me to Enlish Whisky Co. (I was not complaining about a LOW price) and `kilted` means all, not just Scots)
Please remove my email address from your mailing list. My initial enquiry elicited from you a price list which indicated to me that you were targetting speculators and not whisky drinkers. I hope you survive and prosper but I do not intend to be a part of your campaign.
Hurry hurry the show is about to end. One more answer that has nothing to do with the question asked and I can save myself the trouble of reading points collectors views on everything other than Enlish Whisky.
Never tried it myself, so am unsure exactly what it is like, but there is one troubling thought I have.
There is an agreement, and it may just be a gentleman’s agreement, that only WHISKY comes from Scotland. Other countries are free to make a similar drink, but then it is called WHISKEY. If you look around you will see that this is pretty much respected.
I have nothing against anyone making whisky/ey, and have had many fantastic drinks like this from Ireland and single malts from Japan even, but why use the inference and align itself to a scotch by utilising the spelling of WHISKY. If it is a good enough product to stand up on its own merits internationally, then why the need to align itself with another image?
All the good/respectable American sparkling wine producers now quite happily call their products “Sparkling wine”. It is only the ones of dubious quality and that need something else to help sell their product that continue to use the word “champagne”.
So, basically I don’t think they have enough faith in the quality of their own product to stand up on the international stage. If they don’t have that faith in their product why should I view it as a quality product. Price… well, if it is inferior to a scottish/irish/japanese/american whisky/ey, it should certainly be cheaper!
