Common Questions
Why is there dirt in my bottle?
That is 'cask sediment' (charcoal). Blackadder Raw Cask filters only through a coarse sieve. It is safe to drink.
Do you buy Red Snake?
Yes, Red Snake and Black Snake are solera vatting series. We buy them.
What is Blairfindy?
It is usually Glenfarclas teaspooned or undisclosed family cask stock. Very good sherry whisky.
Do you buy 'Peat Reek'?
Yes, Blackadder Peat Reek is a staple purchase.
Is Drop of the Irish valuable?
Yes, Irish single casks are hot right now.
How do I ship a Raw Cask?
Wrap the neck tightly with electrical tape (over the capsule) to prevent the cork from popping, and ship upright if possible.
