I've put this rare 1973 book on Irish Whiskey up for auction. It's a remarkable work of scholarship that draws extensively on Customs & Excise records and other historical sources.

Dreadful news. Such a nice guy, went out of his way to support my own endeavours a few times, for which I was so grateful. And always quick with the quip on Twitter. He will really be missed. RIP Andrew and deepest condolences to your family.

Oh no, that is dreadfully sad. I've been a fan of his column for many years and I had some great conversations with him. A very erudite and fun individual.

My deepest sympathies to his family, friends and colleagues. RIP.

I have so many questions...

Was only in the door at World Whiskey Club and some of this Grace O’Malley Spirits whiskey was pressed into my hand. A combo of Deep Char and Rum casks. Would happily have sipped it all night, though I understand it’s nearly sold out. New expressions on the way though.

Industry and enthusiasts out in force to support the new World Whiskey Club club tonight. Could not have been a happier or more auspicious launch. Roll on the first tasting!

Some good people behind this, and a lot of work. Congrats to all involved. Sounds like 2020 is going to be a most convivial year!

Today marks the end of my 13+ year relationship with Cooley and Kilbeggan distillery. An amazing experience, but now it is time for a new challenge. It has been an honour to represent some of the world’s best whisk(e)ys all over the world. I will miss those old walls!

After a soaking from the elements, a hot whiskey and some people-watching at @57theheadline.

Whisk(e)y fans in Dublin! Your first chance to see our film is this evening at Omniplex in Rathmines. There's a tasting too, if you're thirsty. Here's your very own

1/2 I’ve been saving this for a little while now so that I can spend some time on it. This is an integral part of our whiskey heritage, a unique reproduction of #AquaVitae as described in @redbookofossory. Many thanks to Chris Hennessy & Jarrod Cuffe for the generous sample. 🥃🐈

Another year, another Whiskey Live Dublin! As always, I can't wait till the actual day to start my planning, so like last year I've pulled together of the individual samplings that will be on offer into a single list. #WLD19 1/2
