Talk:Welsh whisky

message: This was in response to the claims about the Pendryn company only needing one still. As the rest of the section was a Copyvio, it has been removed.
Not really true. The first distillation is in a pot still and the vapour is taken directly into a column still. So, it is really distilled twice. The closest approximation in the old days is the Lomond still used in a few distilleries in Scotland many years ago.

message: what seperates it's flavor from other british isles whisky? That should be in the article. Never having tasted this type, i can't comment. ReverendG 07:38, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

message: There seems to be an error in the article that I haven't the knowledge to correct.  The first paragraph states that Penderyn Distillery "revised" (I think the writer meant "revived") Welsh whisky distilling "after an absence of more than 100 years".  Yet the second paragraph states that "The last distillery in Wales closed in 1984, and no whisky has been distilled until 2001."  1984 to 2001 is seventeen years, not "more than 100 years".  Was the last distillery open for business for over 83 years without actually producing anything?  Which paragraph is correct? 12.22.250.4 20:26, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that that does sound wrong. Since there's been no discussion on it since you posted this 5 months ago, I'll go ahead and remove one of them. Neither are cited, but since the latter is more precise, I'll remove thee "100 years" claim. Feel free to change it back if anyone can find a good reason to. Patch86 19:05, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think the 100 years was correct and 1984 should be 1884. I'm not aware of any distillery in Wales in my lifetime other than the present one. --84.250.7.88 21:05, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

message: It would be nice if someone could find a reference and include some information about Welsh whisky before 2001. I see there was some here previously but it was unsourced and contradictory. Rees11 (talk) 16:12, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

message: This sentence does not help to discount the Bardsey story:
A later writer would have used the then current word for whisky; if there was a distilled drink in fourth-century Wales then it would have had a different name. I propose deleting this sentence. The point about Reaullt Hir's name is stronger (but not conclusive), and I would keep this. Verbcatcher (talk) 06:23, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

message: There isn't a table of contents for this page and I was wondering why. Is it because the page doesn't meet length requirements? Firestarforever (talk) 14:28, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, an article must have at least three headers below the lead for a table of contents to be automatically generated. There's only two in this article. oknazevad (talk) 15:12, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

message: There is no mention of Anglesey Mon which from personsl experience produced whisky in North Wales ahead of the Aber Falls first release, and is one of now 5 distillery brands in Wales. 2A00:23C7:F990:FA01:B96A:2987:98AF:92E8 (talk) 23:12, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
