I really like North Star, but I can never figure out if they actually want you to buy their whisky or not :neutral:

I have 3 bottles on hold at whiskybroker, I hummed and hawed about their 8yo caol illa bourbon hogshead last night. Went to add one this morning but sold out. They'd been up there for months :cry:

100% this, having spoken to the odd retailer they suggest the same.
Ian Croucher releases details of these bottles to be released and often..................nothing.

Certainly worse than before.
