How to use

Search by distillery or whisky name

Enter distillery names like lagavulin, ardbeg, macallan, or specific expressions like lagavulin 16.

Browse by category

Use category keywords to browse all whiskies of a type:

• scotch - Scotch whisky
• japanese - Japanese whisky
• american - American whiskey (bourbon, rye, etc.)
• irish - Irish whiskey
• canadian - Canadian whisky
• world - World whisky

Special browsing modes

Full tasting notes

Enable Scrape Full Details to visit each review's detail page and extract:

• Nose descriptions
• Palate/taste descriptions
• Finish descriptions
• Balance notes

This is slower but provides much richer data.
