Woodford Reserve Rye Competition


Be it for one of our industry leading Tweet Tastings or one of our monthly bottle competitions, we love nothing more than being able to share and giveaway some of our favourite drops of dramspankage.
 
Talking of which, for January we’re giving away a bottle of one of our absolute liquid americana favourites; Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey. After all it is Rye January!
 
Be it as a solo sipper or used as base in an Old Fashioned, Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey is as abundantly versatile as it is rich, rounded and dramspankingly delicious, and we’d love to share some of those good, good, good, good rye-brations!

“I’d love to pour and explore some seriously good,
good, good, good Woodford Reserve rye-brations”

The Whisky Cellar Tweet Tasting

Continuing our teeming throng of industry leading Tweet Tastings into the new year, we’re absolutely delighted to announce our first event of 2023!

On January 18th, we’ll be teaming up again with our very good friends at The Whisky Cellar, to pour and explore our way through some of their latest sensory stories from their vibrant and vivacious Easy Sipper range, along with an incredible line-up of drams and a tot of rum from their Brig O' Perth and Pintail heritage brands.

Brig O’ Perth was first blended and bottled by Perth wine merchant and grocer, Matthew Gloag & Son, in the basement of their shop at 20-24 Atholl Street in early 1896 as their “house blended Scotch” some 9 months before the company’s Famous Grouse brand first appeared. The brand was acquired by The Whisky Cellar as their in-house Blended Scotch and occasional Single Cask bottling label in February 2019.

Pintail was first bottled in 1931 as Matthew Gloag & Son’s house brand of Dry Sherry and soon won international awards for its superior quality. The downturn in Sherry consumption in the latter half of the 20th century signalled the end for the brand. The Whisky Cellar acquired the rights in 2021, lining it up once again with its old ‘Brig O’ Perth’ stablemate.

Full details to follow, but if you fancy taking part in what promises to be another epic evening of sensory story dramfotainment, sampling some of the best independent bottlings in the business click here to register your interest, by emailing your name, address, phone number, date of birth and Twitter handle. Please remember to mark the subject line of your email: #TheWhiskyCellar

The closing date to register is December 21st, and if you are registering to take part, please make sure that you will actually be free on the night of January 18th to take part!

Even if you're not one of the selected Tweet Tasters, it'd be great to have you following the evening’s dramfotainment, with a dram-in-hand. So we look forward to seeing you over on Twitter on January 18th from 19:00 GMT via #TheWhiskyCellar

Registrations open to over 21's only!
