Guest Post: Bill Feher Visits Whiskey Del Bac

It’s been a couple of years since our last guest blog by Shane Kinloch, but we have another opportunity. Bill Feher, longtime friend of Scotchology, recently traveled to Tuscon, AZ and had a chance to visit Hamilton Distillers, makers of Whiskey Del Bac. He was so enthused upon his return that it felt almost mean for us not to offer a platform to voice his experience. Bill currently resides in Pittsburgh where, beyond sipping whiskey, writing and hiking, he is also an accomplished woodworker. But in the meantime, let’s check out what he thought about his Tuscon odyssey and if he found anything to bring back with him!

At the beginning of August 2019, some of Scotchology went to Dublin for ten days. The following is a collection of notes and pictures of all the distilleries (and one iconic brewery) found around Dublin we visited, plus a bonus, broken out by location. There were only four operating distilleries as recently as a decade ago, but as of June 2019 there are 25 operating distilleries, with several more planned. In fact, all the distilleries in this post are new since Dublin had not contained an operating distillery in 125 years until Teeling opened their site in 2015.

Entering the realm of the absurd, July 2019 marks the sixth anniversary of Scotchology. The past couple of years have seen less drastic changes and even some relative stability. As of this posting, we currently have 123 reviews, comprising 88 scotches and 35 world whiskies. Social media continues to be the way we interact with others in the whisky community that are not in our immediate geographic vicinity. Apparently all the cool kids are doing it nowadays. We’re in a groove, and it feels good.
