    Lovely bourbon, have bought it many times in the past when coming home from the US. €37 is a great price for it

    I wonder what very small batch means!!
    How much smaller than small is it?
    I really hate these meaningless terms (and I'm ashamed to say that our gin is labelled as small batch but I got outnumbered).
    Tiny batch, anyone?

    Look it up - it's not difficult. According to celticwhiskeyshop.com
    This is a 'very small batch' bourbon which is made up of vattings of around 8-12 barrels. Therefore there will be some slight differences between each release. The bourbon components have a mashbill content containing corn, rye and malted barley.

    Other distillers appear to use their own specific definition for what constitutes a small batch ...

    That's my point.
    "small" in isolation means nothing so adding another undefined adjective seems pointless. Is that difficult to understand?

    From what you posted above, each "very small batch" could be around 5000 bottles. Small is relative.

    Well no - you don't have to buy it you know lol. It is defined in relation to their own production afaik. If you check out the website - it goes into detail on the issue. Checking it up is not difficult...
