The pre submitted questions are a much better format, will just have to be on my toes next time 😂

Willem Kilian commented on your post. Sure, my question for Ralfy, or now that I think about it, all the malt mates who've been in the game for a while now, is whether you are getting an overall sense that the industry is being taken over by people who are not directly involved enough in whisky making; and whether this is detrimental to the industry in the long run. And, if that's the case, would the seemingly positive trends from some of the newly emerging smaller distilleries we're seeing lately be enough to be its saving grace? Does it even matter, or will the volume sales market where a lack of quality may not be as observed or appreciated by the average 'consumer' remain the lifeline of the industry as it continues to ride on brand recognition and people's established habits? I think, in hindsight, this may have been a stupid and very generic question :-)

. . . I get the overall sense of some whisky Companies selling themselves short with the quality they are NOT presenting to the market.

Love the new system! I would keep it this way! And the mystery malt was great, so much guessing near the end haha

It was a great stream as usual, thankyou Ralfy. I only watched it a little later as I was in Dusseldorf for the Bruce Springsteen concert during Bothylive.
