But first, here’s an excerpt from this Review…..

…..Luckily, given the celebrity status of the release, there’s a slew of articles on the web that paint a clearer picture of the whisky’s components.  Sam worked in concert with Michael Henry, the Master Blender at Loch Lomond to create The Sassenach, and given that Loch Lomond has it on its website as a product, it’s safe to assume that all the component whisky in the blend is sourced from that distillery.  Sassenach is said to blend a “high percentage” of single malts aged up to 12 years and is combined with an organic 19 year old single grain, all of which is then finished in Madeira casks…..

The Library is our hidden corner of Nice Sipper where we taste and discuss the more exclusive bottles, whether they be at a higher price or something that is harder to find. This content is exclusive for members only so thank you for joining The Library.


Why is a paywall being added to the site?

As you can all appreciate, whiskey isn’t getting any cheaper. In order to continue providing a steady volume of reviews, Nice Sipper needs some help to fund these bottle purchases. Otherwise, Mrs. Nice Sipper will stop being so accommodating with his hobbies!

And if I can help you not to make one single over-priced purchase, then the $2/month pays for itself!

Will all reviews be kept behind a paywall going forward?

Absolutely not! Nice Sipper will continue to post reviews free to the general public for all types of whiskey. The cutoff points for free vs. exclusive will likely be around $50 for Bourbons, Ryes, and Irish whiskey and $75 for Single Malt Scotch and potentially other whiskies of the world. I am reticent to put in place a hard and fast dollar amount as I want some flexibility depending on the circumstance, but I suspect this rule will generally fit most reviews going forward.

I have an idea for additional benefits to being a member to The Library, do you want to hear it?

Absolutely! I always want to hear your ideas and thoughts. If you have any ideas on how to make this more mutually beneficial please do not hesitate to contact me at nicesipper@gmail.com.
