ONE CORK RATING

Remember there is no such thing as a bad whisky, but a Whisky (single malt or blend) which is given a “Whisky Boys one Cork Whisky Rating”, this would not be at the front of the cabinet or a Whisky of choice faced with a nicely stocked gantry.

This whisky would be better used for cooking or to keep for cocktail mixing.

Two Cork Rating

Drinkable and pleasant, however possibly lacking a bit a oomph and a reason to rush out to buy again.

This whisky should make it into your cabinet but maybe only buy another bottle if on special offer.

Three Cork Rating

Definitely a dram we will need to go in again and sample another age.  There is a little room for improvement but it’s perfect as an every day dram.

Worthy of a purchase or two….

Four Cork Rating

Should be in everyones cabinet, right at the front, pride of place.  Enjoy this dram and ensure the bottle is replaced immediately.

Recommend this whisky to everyone.

Five Cork Rating

There could be nothing better, WOW. Packed to the brim with the most wonderful flavor.  Savor every drop.
