Ah er was een "i" blijven hangen. Nu doen ze het allemaal.

Ha, dit is wel gaaf!

En zo te lezen gaan ze geen bourbon maken, toch?

Yep, het lijkt er op dat ze voor traditionele malt kiezen.

Shelter Point Distillery takes its inspiration from the few remaining traditional Scotch distilleries such as Highland Park, Glenfiddich and Springbank, which still process their own barley on site. In an age when technology renders products obsolete in a few short years, and beverage manufacturers churn out new drinks based on trendy graphics and sugared carbonation, Shelter Point is concerned with doing it right, from the beginning. If it takes a few years, so be it.
