HISTORY OF MAASTRICHT - 4 WHISKIES IN THE CAVES

At the end of May, we had a great time in the Grotten Noord, capably guided around by 👍

We tasted Vins as a reminder of the Roman beginnings of Mosa Trajectum - then as a reminder of French occupations, and the terroir of wine growing above our heads 🇮🇹🇫🇷

Then a .de Penninger bottling, touching on the occupation during WW2 and the subsequent liberation - all before finishing with a lovely local Tenth 🇩🇪🇳🇱

Come join us at Halloween for our next cave tasting event! 👍

⭐ NEW ARTICLE - TANGIBLE TERROIR in ⭐

What do you think about terroir in whisky? 🤔

Only got my copy a few days ago as I was away in the US when it arrived - but here it is, my latest for Whisky Magazine about how to pin down terroir in whisky! 🥃

Even since writing this, my thinking on the subject has shifted - but there's still some good points in here, I think 👍

Long story short, we need to create a system where local styles of whisk(e)y can be made synonymous with 'regions', creating a link to both land and practices/choices - then distillers will have the option to claim their local terroir, or make something outside that with a simpele, broader label 🏷️

EUROPAPA w.
25.05.25 🥃🇫🇷🇳🇱🇫🇮🇩🇰🇨🇭🇩🇪🇪🇸

We kicked off this mammoth 9 dram tasting with Indigène, admiring the Alps in the bottle! Then two expressions to compare, a '23 PX and a '24 Oloroso - Frisian single malts! 🇫🇷🇳🇱

10 Year Old gave us our first age statement, with a longer and more sophisticated finish. Spelt-Rye added more intensity and layers of chocolate richness 🇫🇮🇩🇰

Dreifältigkeit took us back to the Alps for an 'umami bomb' like a peaty negroni! Kraftwerk showed us what cask strength and German oak can do 🇨🇭🇩🇪

And finally a rare old bottling of Spanish single malt, el Diabolito Sulforoso by SWC! A rare chance for me to talk about Liber and the SWC... 🇪🇸

Thanks to all the tasters and their input - not to mention an additional Swiss dram, Johnett, and a few kind folk letting me try and !

Can't wait to come back in future with more of Europe's best drams - it's an experienced club, so they present a good challenge to try and impress them 😉

22/05/2025

Don't forget - this Sunday we'll be at Whisky Club Utrecht! 7 European whiskies in 1 great tasting 👍

Single malts, old single cask bottlings, and more - who needs Eurovision when you have a warm weekend day of great drams!

📍 2pm at Regulierenring 8, Bunnik
💶 €37.50 for non WCU members (link to Tikkie on our Tastings page)

NEW DRAMS ON SALE 🇨🇿🥇🐓
GOLD C**K - CZECH SINGLE MALT

Na zdraví! Our latest arrival on the EuroWhisky webshop is a real Czech gem, the pride of southern Moravia, Gold C**k! Two single malts - a 10 year old unpeated (49.2%) and an NAS Peated (45%)

The Gold C**k Peated has a special story for me (Harry) - it was the first dram I tried after moving to the Netherlands, at the old premises of ! You can also get this whisky at their shop in Strijp S 👀

And it's a belter of a dram - affordable, rich peated whisky, all made with Czech barley, peat, and oak! The unpeated 10 Year Old is also made with purely Czech ingredients and casks, so it's a truly local whisky as well as being enjoyable and affordable 👍

Gold C**k also collaborates with Old Well, whose whisky we also stock - take a look at the Czechia page on our website to see more (if you're over 18!) 🔞

DUTCH DISTILLERY: MOUTMOLEN 🇳🇱🥃

On Friday, we went to a recently up-and-running distillery in Budel, on Brabant's southern border: slip out of your chair, and you'll fall into Belgium!

Jop Boer has started distilling whisky at the old Janzona mill, which still runs (check out our reel to see that!) - and they'll be grinding grain to make Moutmolen's single malt!

(Moutmolen means malt mill in Dutch anyway 😉)

Not only is Jop producing various levels of peated single malt, but he has unique whisky to showcase including:
- Hemel en Hellevuur 5.5YO from , aged in oloroso octave
- His bottlings, such as this clear bit beautifully sweet Strathclyde 28YO
- Moutmolen Work in Progress, made using Scotch whiskies and a similar concept to 'while we wait' bottlings from R&B. Has a fantastic coastal finish which i didn't expect!

Thanks for the tour, Jop!
