Whisky Lady – January 2020

A new year, a new chapter in whisky tasting adventures.

2020 kicked off with a real milestone in my whisky explorations – a celebration of 1,000 Whisky Lady posts! There are so many prolific and profound blogs out there, however I just wanted to say THANK YOU to all who have been part of this journey.

  • Nikka Super Rare Old from the 1970/880s and 2019

I also shared notes from a remarkable Mumbai evening with Chorlton Single Casks:
