Eiling Lim is an independent bottler from China and she is the first female to venture into independent bottling in her home country. Inspired by her whisky enthusiast and whisky collecting husband Eiling has managed to bottling some quite impressive single cask whiskies.
‘The whisky selection which both my husband and I have chosen are based simply on 3 criteria. First of all the taste of the whisky has to be better than good because good is simply not good enough. Second, the whisky has to be highly quaffable where one have to feel the pleasure of drinking our whisky because taking just a sip is an insult. And lastly, we strive for a good price-quality ratio. We avoid choosing casks from only famous distillery and overpriced whisky. We bring variety to the whisky market with reasonable prices so that no one is obliged to keep my bottles as an investment and not to open them. We want whiskylovers to open and savour every bottle and share them with friends or even with us!’ – Eiling Lim
