Each and every release is selected by an experienced panel, and the producer’s philosophy is quite simple: Taste is the key to the enthusiast's heart. Brave New Spirits' aim is to become renowned for high quality, delicious and interesting releases. They care about provenance & age, but the selection for each release is driven foremost by flavour.
