🥃 Did you know? In medieval Ireland, whiskey wasn’t just for drinking. It was used as currency. Farmers & tenants paid rent & bartered goods with uisce beatha (the “water of life”) long before coins ruled commerce. Whiskey = Liquid Gold. 💰☘️ #Commerce #History #WhiskeyFacts

@MasterOfMalt Holding a few Orange Wine casks with @craftirish_ciwc - really looking forward to bottling. What are your thoughts on no age statements (We're entering a 5th year of maturing now)

Deanston have launched their brand new Orange Wine Cask Scotch Whisky! This single malt is matured for 15 years in ex-bourbon barrels and finished for two years in rare Vino de Naranja casks. Bottled at 53.6% ABV, it has notes of candied orange, sweet honey and gentle oak.

2025 Finished we an incredible IRL experience! vimeo.com/1128908989 It's happening again. Calling all holders. If you are keen to be involved, reach out. 🥃🌕 #whiskymoon

Robert Burns wrote some of the most famous words about whisky. 🥃 To celebrate Burns Night (which is on Sunday 25th January), check out some of his best whisky quotes. P.S. Don’t forget to enter our Burns Night Poetry Competition. Check our website for more details!

@JohnHansell Always torn between enjoying the best drops and holding them for the legacy. Having two bottles is the only way to please both voices 😅

Decided to open one of the two bottles from my Ardbeg whisky “Double Barrel” set after polishing the “family silver” drinking cups. Released in 2007. I’m poorer for it financially, but much richer in so many ways. Doing my best to appreciate every day. Cheers friends. #gratitude

... no bites at all? Interesting.

Something refined has been distilling over the last 8 months...

In 2026, we blend. The first collab release begins with the team behind yet another World #1 recognised whisky!

Merchants! Are you ready for your virtual distilleries to come alive? #whiskey #whisky #virtualdistillery

Can you imagine hodl'n an NFT that allowed you to be part of this!

VOTED #1 World's Best Whisky The top honour didn’t go to a Scotch giant or a revered Japanese distiller. Instead, it went to a little-known Irish single malt: The Donn’23 Edition from @craftirish_ciwc. #no1 #worldsbest #whisky 🥃🌕 stylerave.com/asia-spirits-r…

Yes... look again. More appealing than Physical Gold! 🥃🌕 #whisky #whiskeymoon

2025 Data is yet to be released, but we're loving how the historical data looks! The best part about holding casks is that if 2025 is no good. You hold. The whisky becomes more valuable by aging as you wait! And each year the available supply reduces. The market comes to you!

@waefarer @aditiitwt An inbuilt Moat is one of the key things invetors we've interacted with have been looking for.

This is called defensibility or building a moat: There are 7 broad strategies you can explore, and a combination of two or more. Network Effects: It's when your product becomes more valuable to every user as more people join the system so its hard for competitors to enter the market because of the inherent value. e.g. Instagram Switching Costs: You make the financial, time, or psychological pain of leaving your product high enough to prevent customers from moving to a competitor e.g. Salesforce Economies of Scale: As the volume of production increases, the cost per unit decreases, allowing you to price lower than smaller competitors e.g. Costco Counter-Positioning: A business model that existing businesses cannot copy because doing so would damage their existing business e.g. Netflix vs. Blockbuster Branding & Exclusivity: The ability to charge a higher price for an identical product solely due to reputation, trust, or status e.g. Tiffany & Co. Cornered Resource: Exclusive access to a scarce asset such as a patent, specific talent, or location, that competitors cannot obtain e.g. Pfizer patents & Music rights Process Power: You can achieve superior efficiency through a complex system of internal operational habits that are invisible and nearly impossible to replicate e.g., Toyota.
