Like most golfers, I love good whisky. It’s something of a recent fascination of mine, and it’s a good one, considering how well it goes with my other great passion: The game of golf.
Indeed, good whisky and good golf are intertwined in so many ways, and if you’re thinking about combining the two in the form of a holiday present for the golfer in your life (or maybe even yourself!), here are a few options for you to consider.
