Our Story
We like whisk(e)y and other spirits, as do many of our friends, family and colleagues.
Despite best intentions to explore famous and lesser-known brands and expressions, we constantly faced multiple challenges:
- Overwhelming choice: 100s of distilleries with many brands and expressions means exploring can be daunting!
- Cost: premium spirits aren’t cheap and spending money on something you don’t like the taste of is dispiriting!
- Convenience: finding miniatures to manage cost isn’t always possible (or sociable); going to bars is time-consuming and expensive.
Reading books and blogs doesn’t cut it for us. We want to taste the liquid for ourselves and form our own opinions, in a fun, social and economically attractive manner. I set up a small club with a few friends to do exactly this and we've had a great time on our journey of exploration so far.
The Spirited Club is our way of offering you the chance to participate in this journey with your friends and family. The name obviously reflects the product - spirits, but also how we enjoy exploring them; with friends and family, with spirited (adjective: full of energy, enthusiasm, and determination) discussions on our thoughts, our likes and dislikes. It's the reason why we chose 10cl bottles; enough for multiple tastings with others. However it's not for us to tell you how to enjoy being a member of the club, just that we hope you enjoy it as much as we are.
