Whisky - Some Of the Best Pages on the Web
After a request I wish to highlight some of the more interesting none comertial whisky pages on the web in no particular order. I’ll do podcasts later.
The Malt Madness page by Johannes van den Heuvel was the catalyst for my big interest in malts. Reading his whisky log going back to 1997 full of tastings musings and anecdotes is most fasenating to someone with an interest in the subject.
www.maltmadness.com
An offshoot of his page is the grouping known as the Malt Maniacs. This ramshackle mix of whisky fans from around the world are starting to influence the industry with candid comments and some eminent righter’s on the panel. The awards programme they run once a year is taken seriously by the whisky fraternity with most companies wanting a slice of the action. They also publish an e-zine a few times a year full of whisky articles and stories.

The Scotch Blog is a well produced publication that does what it says on the tin. Kevin Erskine has some good industry contacts and his interviews can be interesting.
www.thescotchblog.com
Whiskyfun.com is a page of tasting by a French Malt Maniac called Serge. His love of music and adverts is also shown on the web log. How he gets some of the whiskeys he tries is beyond me, but money helps along with connections I would guess.
www.whiskyfun.com
Spirit Of Islay is a page devoted to Islay whisky written by a top bloke called Gordon Homer. He sent me some amazing Ardbeg samples once. His interview with the Ardbeg manager makes interesting reading.

peatfreak is the one stop info centre for whisky news. Jeroen Kloppenburg also has an inavative tasting notes data base and program for your PC so you can uploadyour opinions on malts, plus games and lots of virtual distillery tours.

Whiskynews is another malty blog by Peter. Some interesting notes and an e-mail friend.

Whisky Distilleries Info is a page of historical information about distilleries. It also has some rather good tasting notes both in English and French.

maltwhiskey.com is a little out of date now, but is was my main info page as I learned about malts.
