  Thank you for the compliment. I really appreciate it.

  I enjoyed reading the different approaches to building a whisky collection. Whether you collect by region, style, or limited releases, discovering new brands keeps the hobby interesting. Soorahi is another premium whisky worth considering for collectors looking to explore the evolving world of quality whiskies.

  There is no distillery equipment there and also no licences to produce or sell alcohol.

  Hi Yvonne, Thank you for your response and for sharing the video. Unfortunately, the evidence you referred to consists only of two people talking about the whisky, without any explanation or identification. We have not spoken to the individuals in the video ourselves, nor can we verify who they are. We describe it as a Chinese whisky because it is released by a Chinese distillery. As you mentioned, the distillery has chosen to label the product as “pure malt” instead of “Chinese whisky.” Based on that, we do not believe they are doing anything illegal.

  So - you have the proof......where's your write up?

  You are absolutely right. Luckily that doesn't matter for the taste of the whisky. Have you tried it yet?

  Throw in the towel? You mean restructure to compete and win in a challenging industry environment.

  There is nothing legally to prevent the English whisky GI from coming into force, it complies with all the relevant laws and the single malt definition follows the precedent of Welsh whisky and US whisky

  Three emails sent (two with videos, linked to a Google Drive Share). 1. The original video. 2. The video with subtitles as it was shared on YouTube 3. Screen grab of the YouTube channel where the video was blocked due to Pernod Ricard lobbying. The story was covered on Drinks Intel at the time - link here - https://drinks-intel.com/subscriber-news/pernod-ricards-the-chuan-pure-malt-whisky-not-sourced-solely-from-china-global-drinks-intel-exclusive/
