Yes, I read that a few weeks ago. Swell de Spirits jumped on the bandwagon as well and we can expect a bottle this year (probably unaged). My guess is that most independents will have released a bottle or two in a couple of years.

I’m already looking forward to the Paranubes 3 years by Velier for 229€… 🤦‍♂️

I also already have a great anticipation for the bottling of Swell de Spirits. Mika’s excellent picking expertise surely will bring us something exceptional here. 🤩🇲🇽

Absolutely. 🙂

But Swell is a victim of its success. New bottles sell out very fast as a lot of flippers here in France buy them. I’m thus always afraid to miss out on the new releases. 😕
