We're donating £1 for every order placed through our site to help people who have lost their jobs because of the COVID-19 crisis. We're partnering with hospitalityaction.org.uk to administer the fund, and make grants to impacted individuals.
By shopping with us today, you're lending a helping hand.
Together, we're going to try and support as many people as we can through this challenging time, and we're going to do it in the way which people need most - by providing cold hard cash so they can buy the things they need and pay rent.
Our goal here is to help people from the hospitality industry meet their basic needs until national governments are able to step in and provide more long term support.
We invite all other online retailers to join our alliance, and help support our friends in the hospitality industry when they most need it. Please drop us a line at JoinTheAlliance@masterofmalt.com and be part of the fight back against COVID-19.
Together, we will get through this.

We can't actually ship Reference Series I.1 to you in United States at the moment. We're working on a solution.
Don't need to send to the United States?Change your shipping destination - we can probably ship to you!
It's here, the very first extension to the Reference Series, allowing direct comparison back to one of three 'control' whiskies. Yes, this is I.1, comprising of the same whiskies in the same proportions as Reference Series I, except that now approximately 1/3 of it has spent an additional finishing period of a month in fresh 50 litre ex-Pedro Ximénez casks.
No other variables have been changed, which is what the Reference Series is all about. As far as we know this is the first time it's been possible for consumers to compare the exact same whisky with, and without, a specific cask finish influence, thus allowing them to experience the effects of this process. You can smell and taste the difference in your glass, knowing where the changes have come from, just as you can for II and III with their counterparts II.1 and III.1.
Nose: Straight into fruity teacake on a richer nose than the Reference Series I, lemon curd, sultanas, dried apricot, a bundle of oats and a touch of menthol.
Palate: Retaining that slightly effervescent mouthfeel, but not so much of the bready Champagne notes from I, it's a subtle palate with hints of white raisins, cedar, Pinot Grigio and just a hint of nuttiness.
Finish: Dry with hazelnut notes coming into their own before leaving you with more notes from the palate.
Overall: Finishing approximately 1/3 of this whisky in fresh PX casks has introduced new notes and richness with light dried fruit and nutty notes adding to an already delicious blended malt.

I like this less than the Straight reference series - the Sherry brings out some of the more 'tequila-y' notes, but hey - that's the whole point of this, right?
