Who is Barrel & Batch?

ABOUT US

'If only we could buy enough bottles...'

That's what Ray and I were mulling over with a drink in hand. Lamenting how the big retail, casino and hotel chains have the scale to source their own single cask whiskies. The kind of whiskies we love to get our hands on. The kind of whiskies that get set aside because they are just too damn good to bottle in any way other than just the way they are.

Having both been around whisky for too long to remember we knew that there must be others that feel the same way.

We thought we could get part of the way to buying casks just by getting our friends who love whisky as much as we do to chip in with us. Then we thought 'well, if our friends invite a couple of their friends...'

And from this wishful conversation the idea for Barrel & Batch Whisky Co-op was born. Not a shop, not a subscription, just mates pooling their dollars together to get their hands on the good stuff. Our goal isn't to be the biggest or to have the most members. It's just to share great whisky with great friends
