For an avid amateur, I’m exceedingly pleased to share another Whisky Lady in India milestone!!
When I reached 100 posts with 100 whiskies, I couldn’t believe it was possible. Then 200 posts, 300 posts… and today 500 posts! Clearly whisky tasting and sharing of these experiences is no accident…
Who would have thought it?
When a group of friends first came together in 2011 in Mumbai, would we manage to keep meeting every month – even now!?
When jotting down a few notes, then sharing on Everyday Asia… became by late 2014 its own full-fledged blog “Whisky Lady in India“…
When the Whisky Ladies of Mumbai was founded mid-2015.. with our often merry slant, wry humour and pointed insight… no missish maids but women who can hold their own in any forum! Including any big boys of whisky.
When the Bombay Malt & Cigar gents joined the fray in 2016… enabling exclusive and dare I say access to wish list type whiskies. The Balblair 38 year ($1,600) or Laphroaig 21 year T5 ($2,250) come to mind…
When I attended my 1st Whisky Live in Singapore… from the Collectors Room to Master Classes and so much more…
When I went on my 1st distillery tour at the Crown Royal plant in my home province of Manitoba, Canada.
And by 2017, with three Mumbai based Whisky Clubs going strong, travels continuing to augment the adventures … I made it to a whisky distillery in my adopted home India – Paul John. Wondered at The Whisky Exchange’s Sukhinder Singh’s remarkable collection… So many more amazing opportunities, tasting events, completely unexpected club contributions and more!
So here we are…. 500 posts. Over 3,000 followers. And it feels like the fun is just beginning!!
Thank you for joining the journey!! Slainte mhath!!

Congrats! 🙂 Doesn’t seem that long ago you were commenting on my 500th saying how delighted you were to have gone over 100. You should easily reach 1000 in 2018! Looking forward to reading more of your words!
