But first, here’s an excerpt from this Review…..
…..The 15 Year Old release was aged in Bowmore’s No. 1 Vaults, thought to be the oldest maturation area in the world. While I have not visited the distillery, the accounts I gathered through a bit of online research state that the Number 1 Valt is below-sea level, so the sea-facing walls are constantly washed with sea spray from the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors claim to be able to hear the waves crashing, taste the salty air and feel the wind while within the subterranean aging warehouse, which sounds pretty cool to me.……
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.
