Planning the Cellar

This is the starting point for the Cellar, giving a bit of background to what we’re attempting to do, and how we’ll go about it.

The idea of A Cellar’s Tale came about after a lengthy cross-country move. Having some more space in the house, and finally being able to expand my beverage selection, I thought it would be useful to share experiments and information.

Why do this?

  • Because there’s an awful lot of different drinks out there and, frankly, while some are fantastic many are… less so. Hopefully this will give a better idea about what’s worth trying!
  • With so many different variations of drinks, it can be pretty confusing sometimes trying to find something you’ll like.
  • A good drink is a fantastic thing to share, and since it’s difficult to do that in person right now – with the pandemic lockdown – why not do it online instead?

The plan is that the blog will contain posts on a variety of topics relating to alcoholic beverages, that will hopefully prove useful – and maybe even interesting.

This will include:

  • Reviews of different beverages – with a clear indication of how they taste and what other drinks they’re similar to.
  • Recipes for cocktails, and different ways to enjoy your drinks.
  • Direct comparisons of similar drinks (or different brands of the same thing!)
  • Information about producers and suppliers.

Hopefully this proves to be of some use and entertainment – and maybe even encourages you to try out some new things.
