With the arrival of Brexit we have wondered a lot about the future of Scotch whisky. But first of all, buy premium whisky before Brexit!
We recommend these scotch whiskies that you should have in your collection before it becomes more difficult to get one of these bottles due to Brexit. Some countries such as the United States have already secured the whisky trade with Scotland. The situation surrounding Brexit is however very uncertain. So you can rest assured and buy some of them easily via the web, for example, on specialised sites.
