20 Whiskies That Changed The World!
The Whisky Exchange has launched a tasting set that takes you on a journey through the ground-breaking whiskies of the 21st century!
In the two decades since brothers, Sukhinder and Rajbir Singh founded The Whisky Exchange, which has now become the world’s leading fine spirits retailer, the whisky landscape has evolved dramatically.
From the meteoric rise of peated styles to the emergence of stellar whiskies from Japan, US, India and Taiwan, it has been quite a journey!
A journey through the ground-breaking whiskies of the 21st century!
Now Sukhinder and Rajbir invite you to experience that journey with 20 Whiskies that Changed the World, sharing the whiskies that have had the greatest impact on them, the whisky industry and whisky fans around the globe.
This eye-catching gift set of 20 x 3cl Perfect Measure samples tells the story of this transformation in the best way possible – by offering you the chance to taste some of the whiskies that made it happen.
20 Whiskies that Changed the World can serve as a delicious whisky cabinet that you dip into to enjoy whenever the mood takes you or as an educational whisky guide. The whiskies are grouped into a selection of four themes – Whisky Revolution, Magic of the Cask, Peat Makes the World Go Round and The New World – accompanied by a tasting book featuring producer profiles, tasting notes, and online tasting videos.
The whiskies are arranged in tasting order so you can either enjoy them at your leisure or taste them in four flights alongside the video guides.
In the 1980s, when my brother Rajbir and I were living above and working in The Nest, our parents’ off-licence in north-west London, the world of whisky was very different to the thriving, innovative industry we see today.
Whisky was always magical – to us, at least – but the new ideas, innovations, techniques and personalities who have graced the whisky stage so far this millennium have elevated the world of whisky to a new level. We hope people enjoy drinking these whiskies as much as we enjoyed choosing them.
