The Last Broadcast
Marvellous, here it is after seven plus years of instigating
and fuelling the Whisky Rover persona it’s all systems stop, shut down and
mothballed.
Admit it, you never saw this coming what with a move to a
new .com URL recently and the revamp of the website with a glorious new
frontage. That’s partially what I enjoyed about the whole experience. The
ability to surprise, spark debate and the reactions. Part of the appeal was not
knowing what was coming next. You could have hardly any articles during a week
(like most other whisky sites) or a barrage of thought provoking and incendiary
writing. Always doing the unexpected and
driving in my own direction regardless of the obstacles and opportunities laid
out to hamper the drive.
Legacy wise what resides amongst these pages will live on,
whether it’s kept afloat intact or moved elsewhere. However, from meeting many
of you over the years, I know that memories have been formed and this is the
greatest resource and compliment of all.
The future. What does it hold for all of us never mind
whisky? Within touching distance is a new beginning and a shake down of whisky.
Be patient and you’ll understand. This message won’t be promoted anywhere. This
specific adventure has drawn to a close, but there is always time for another whisky and a new dawn.
