Welcome to the home site of my new whisky business, The Worldwide Whisky Company Limited.
This is the realisation of my ambition, not just to write about new and exciting whiskies from the furthest reaches of the world but to bring them to you and let you taste them, often for the very first time. The Worldwide Whisky Company is an umbrella company covering several different activities. They include:
Whisky tastings
My evenings are informal and fun, and have more in common with after dinner speaking rather than masterclasses. I can talk about any style of whisky from anywhere in the world, and as I’ve visited most of the areas I speak about, my talks tend to be anecdotal. I speak without notes, am happy to answer questions on any aspect of whisky, and am comfortable speaking to any group size, from five to 500.
I can be booked by pubs and restaurants, for corporate evenings or for special occasions.

Worldwide Whisky Consultancy
I offer distilleries and individuals advice on a wide range of areas, including marketing and public relations, market trends, taste and flavour, industry analysis, investment, packaging, brand development and quality control.

NEW WORLD WHISKY REVIEW
ISSUE #009
I have been a journalist for about 30 years,
a drinks writer for 22 years, and exclusively a whisky writer for more than a decade. In 2015,
I won the Fortnum and Mason Drinks Writer of the Year Award. I have edited various drinks titles including Whisky Magazine, and have been a freelance whisky writer for seven years. I have written about whisky for a wide range of titles including national newspapers, international magazines and British drinks titles including Harpers, Drinks International, Publican at Morning Advertiser and The Spirits Business. I have written six books on whisky including The World's Best Whiskies, 1001 Whiskies to Try Before You Die and The Whisky Opus, which in 2013 was shortlisted in the Fortnum and Mason Food and Drink Awards.
I am a Keeper of the Quaich and a Kentucky Colonel. And in 2012 I founded the Craft Distillers Alliance with my wife Sally. I am also founder and a director of The Whisky Tasting Club, which can be found at www.thewhiskytastingclub.co.uk
