On this Burns Night we hope you have succeeded in your haggis hunting, but remember... no haggis, neeps and tatties without the whisky.

Happy New Year
Never drink more on New Year's Eve than you can go hill climbing the next day (that's today). Of course you decide which hill. Molehills might be a challenge today.

Happy Hogmanay. Social distancing may challenge first-footing this year. If you get to go - remember to bring the good stuff.

Look at the size of that tree. There is room for a bottle and more under there.
Brave the rain or snow and please enjoy the pour responsibly.
Merry Christmas

While standard whiskies freeze at -23°C, WaterProof doesn't freeze until -28.22°C due to its higher strength. Our brand manager should shop for Christmas instead of doing calculations like that.

300 latrines with soap and handwashing stations and 10 wells with pumps built only by local builders. More than 600 villagers in rural Malawi have been trained in hygiene by local health assistants in. We are proud to support waterworkscharity.org
waterproofwhisky.com/charity
The interest has been phenomenal so we decided to give away two prizes - and to those that did not win: sorry, but we promise to have at least another competition next year.
The winners are:
Helen Kilminster @HPILLminster and Jamie Ratcliff @Jamrat_ Please DM us your details.
100% malt from a handful of top tier distilleries making it versatile and complex. Some enjoy it neat or with water or ice, but for cocktail inspirations have a look at waterproofwhisky.com - - - #waterproof #spiritoftheoutdoors #rain #whisky
We are not all fortunate with the amount of water we receive. Therefore, we support the charity Water Works and their outstanding work in Malawi. This year ten more villages dug wells and installed (locally made) water pumps. waterproofwhisky.com/charity facebook.com/waterworkschar…
WATERPROOF whisky; 100% malt, batch bottled at 45.8%, sherry-influenced. Longer in the making than your average malt. A whisky for a rainy day…? It always rains somewhere. Love when it is pouring.

It’s Monday... but not just any Monday. It’s St. Andrew’s Day, Scotland’s official national day celebrated in style - hopefully with a few drams.
It’s actually also a national holiday in Romania and national day of independence in Barbados.
A toast from all of us to all of you.
Shhhh.... WaterProof - Rarely seen in the wild, but can be captured on a Black Friday Deal on Amazon - £29.99, down from £33.45.

Thank you all for taking part in our WaterProof Jerry Can Bar competition. So many kind words, retweets & follows can only mean one thing: our MD will no longer get one. Instead we use his as an extra prize = now two up for grabs.
PS he is not on twitter so doesn’t know it yet.
Win The WaterProof Jerry Can Bar for those treks far far away (though also wall mountable). Made from a real jerry can. To enter, follow @WaterProofMalt + retweet this post and tag a few friends. Ends 1pm Friday 11th Dec 2020. All Retweeters & Followers will enter the draw.
Proud to be nominated amongst some fine fellow blended malts such as Big Peat, Malt Riot and Clydebuilt. No matter who wins tonight we social distance celebrate. Keeping about 7 1/2 bottles(lying down) apart and watching online.

"A comfortably reassuring armchair dram which I'd happily sink a couple of" said whisky writer Dave Broom. Time for a seat and a glass of WaterProof Whisky.

Rest In Peace Sir Sean Connery. Tonight we raise a dram to you... quite possibly more than one.
If you could only bring three things to a desert island... (or even on a canal boat)..., ....would they all be the same whiskies?
That’s what we call “packing essentials”! Hope you are all having a great time. twitter.com/Jotterface/sta…
Vulcanisation was what made the difference to waterproofing of clothes. Vulcanisation was patented by Charles Goodyear - yes… of the tire fame.

Water fact: It is important to hydrate; your body and brain needs it. The brain is composed of approx. 73% water, your body up to 60%... while your whisky, if it is WaterProof, holds 54.2% water.
Is it raining where you are? Anywhere? …then it's OK. Pour a drink. Enjoy the pour. Brave the rain.

We would like to acknowledge @BeckyPaskin and others that call out sexism and promote diversity and inclusivity both in the whisky community and in society as a whole. You are truly inspirational. Thank you for standing up for what you and we believe in. Whisky is for all.
Packing supplies is almost the most important part of any trip. And remember... Winter is coming. #scotch #travel #whisky #spiritoftheoutdoors #winteriscoming
Thank you Brian - we love your blogs too! twitter.com/MaltMusings/st…

Who can top this WaterProof description from whisky writer Dave Broom “It’s the whisky equivalent of an impeccably dressed, hip, older Japanese gent.”?
Water can dissolve more substances than any other liquid including various types of acid. Try WaterProof neat or with water to unlock more flavours, but please do not involve any types of acid (other than an orange peel perhaps).

The word 'Proof' is still used in the USA to describe alcohol strength. It is exactly twice the amount of alcohol by volume, meaning 40% abv becomes 80 proof and 45.8% becomes 91.6 proof.
WaterProof has been longer in the making than the average 12 year old single malt....
Wishing all a great weekend.
Customs & Excise officers used to measure the proof spirit at distilleries. Oh the stories they could tell… Actually, we have collected some on waterproofwhisky.com and promised to keep the sources anonymous.
