Whisky Tasting Box - Swiss Edition

Presentation

The history of whisky in Switzerland is a relatively recent chapter in the global history of spirits. From 1885 to 1999, Swiss legislation prohibited the production of spirits from cereals or potatoes, thereby limiting local distillers who could not compete with their Scottish, Irish, Japanese, and American counterparts, active in distilling their grain mashes. At that time, Swiss distilleries were forced to turn to other types of spirits. However, this ban was lifted on July 1, 1999, marking a decisive turning point for the Swiss whisky industry.

Taking advantage of this new freedom, many companies quickly began to distill and age their whisky, exploiting the possibilities offered by the revised legislation. Three years after this legislative revolution, the first Swiss whiskies were ready to be savored. Since then, the industry has diversified and enriched significantly, giving rise to a variety of brands producing whiskies from classic single malts to the most innovative expressions, including glacier whiskies, showcasing Swiss uniqueness and innovation.

Today, the Swiss whisky industry is thriving and continues to surprise with its diversity of styles and flavors. The 'Whisky Tasting Box - Swiss Edition' is a perfect example, offering a selection of ten tasting bottles that capture the essence of this revitalized distilling tradition. Each bottle allows spirits enthusiasts to explore the richness and complexity of Swiss whiskies, making this set a must-have for connoisseurs and the curious.
