Design a 21st Century Whisky for woman

a ladies dram

Ever since the first whisky it has been a drink linked to men. Now we have come up with a whisky that are lighter and fresher, but still strong in taste and more suitable for woman. Whisky can be described as a journey and this is made based on that term. This is a whisky designed and made for the dreamer and the adventurer, the woman that appreciate the time where she can pour herself a glass, with relaxation and disappear into the wilderness of freedom. This is a glass of “A ladies dram”.
