"The Whisky Exchange is delighted to have won the ISC's Independent Spirits Retailer of the Year– although we have been honoured with several awards in recent years we are particularly proud of this one as we were nominated and voted for independently by the industry rather than entering ourselves. To win this coveted title twice in three years is very special."

“Winning an ISC award for our whisky has great value because it’s the only authentic “Spirits” competition. The judges are real specialists who are well-known and admirable. We strive to produce even better quality whisky year by year to get our whisky rewarded by the ISC.”

“I am proud to have worked with the International Spirits Challenge for many years, particularly when I am judging alongside the most dedicated “Master Blenders” of the World. Therefore I know that every spirit sample evaluated receives the highest scrutiny possible which not only reflects the success of the competition but more importantly benefits the consumer..”
