Omg that is the coolest thing I've heard in a while. Are you allowed and willing to share a few designs?
A wee sample of one of the ranges I've designed, many more varied designs will be on the new website. He's an independent bottler and so he basically goes around all the distilleries and buys odds and ends of casks that maybe don't fit the distilleries main brand, and then uses his expert nose and palette to blend them into beautiful new concoctions...

Thank you so much for the kind words :)

I don't post my work very much so it's lovely to read these things.

wouldn’t you know it, the first place we stayed on the trip, on the dingle peninsula and just a couple minutes away from the Dingle distillery, had that Dingle and the Teeling as well. we really loved them! and we really loved the Dingle gin - mrs bagel has been getting it just about everywhere we’ve gone

I don't know what I am doing here. Whiskey, Bourbon, Scotch? I am not a drinker, barely drink at all, but I do have to say! Those designs sure do look sick!

Surprising to me how many things people do here haha! Next, somebody will post saying they were the photographer behind the smoking baby you see on cigarette packets...
