Tobi was bitten by the whisky bug at a friend's birthday party in 2015. Since then, it's been a wild ride for him - he has attended dozens of fairs and tastings, travelled to Scotland repeatedly and launched his own whisky blog BarleyMania. His favourite whisky brand is Timorous Beastie.
A fan of Whisky from a very early age, Tom's first experience of Whisky was dipping his finger into his Dad's glass of Buchanan's Black and White. This incident would later foster a passion for exploring Whisky that would span 26 years and counting. A lover of the Remarkable Regional Malts, Tom has some of the characters tattooed on his arm.
Steve first fell in love with whisky in 2009 when he honeymooned in Scotland and quite by chance visited the famous Fiddler's Whisky bar in Drumnadrochit. From there Steve's Whisky notes morphed from handwritten musings to digital notes by phone and on to a blog along with social media ramblings. Being a huge fan of Peated Whiskies, it comes as no surprise that Big Peat is marked as a long-time favourite for Steve.
Whisky has been a part of Ulrik's life for almost two decades. His love continues to grow for Whisky and the fantastic experiences it brings.
Although Vin made his first foray into the world of Whisky ten years ago, it wasn't until 2016 that he started to take thins seriously with his own YouTube channel - No Nonsense Whisky. Fuelled by the passion of the Whisky community, Vin is a fan of well-aged Single Grain Whiskies and has a soft spot for the Old Particular Strathclyde 25 Years Old.
