Here at Batonage dot com we do enjoy the finer things in life and a good whisky (or whiskey, depending on where in the world you are and how much of the spirit you’ve had) now and then can surely be classed as such.  A whisky loving friend recently visited the British Isles and came back empty handed because “the whisky is far more affordable at home!”…

Checkers has now entered the fine whisky market with new offerings of Single Malt Whiskies from the Private Barrel Co in Scotland.  Check out the whole range with detailed information and beautiful pictures here.
Forking out a couple of hundred Rand for something you haven’t tasted before may be quite daunting; that is why the friendly folks at Checkers have given us a bottle of Private Barrel Co. Highland Park 12 year old (retailing for R499) to give away.  To enter the give-away is simple:  Tweet @Batonage using the tag #PrivateBarrelCo, mention @CheckersSA and tell us where this particular Highland Park Whiskey is made (hint: there’s a similar town right here in SA).  You can enter as many times as you like.
Private Barrel Co 14 year old Mortlach (thank you Checkers!)
The competition closes at 17h00 on Tuesday the 5th August 2014; winners will be chosen randomly from a list of all the correct entries.  Kindly note that you have to be 18 years or older to win the prize (trust us, they do check when delivering the prize!) and you must reside in South Africa.
