Welcome to The Whiskey Chaps – Whiskey tastings, news and resources
Here on The Whiskey Chaps we have over 1200 tasting notes* (and counting) covering scotch whisky, Irish whiskey, bourbon and world whiskey, interactive maps of whiskey distilleries, shops and bars and many other whiskey-related resources.
You can also browse our comprehensive directory of whiskey blogs and independent bottlers, discover the most popular whisky glasses, browse our whisky auction advice and read up-to-the-minute whiskey news.
We frequently host whiskey tastings on Twitter which are regularly joined by members of the whiskey community and industry.
Furthermore, anyone in the whiskey space can share their firsthand opinions on whiskies that they’ve treated, via the easy-to-use tasting notes submission form.

Recent Whiskey Tasting Notes
If you’re a fan of whiskey or just curious about it, then you might have come across the term “tasting notes” before. Essentially, tasting notes are just descriptions of the flavours and aromas that you might encounter when sipping on a glass of whiskey.
Think of it as a way to articulate and discuss what you’re experiencing when you’re enjoying a dram of your favourite whiskey. It’s a fun and social way to explore the complex flavours and nuances of different types of whiskey, and it can help you develop a deeper appreciation for the spirit.
