Special releases for Norway June 2020
It is again time for a special spirits release in Norway. We should have had one on March 26 and another one on May 28. Both were cancelled due to the ongoing Corona pandemic. However, we will now get a combined release on June 4 (online only) and a week later on June 11 in the eight specialty stores. You can read up on all the specifics on the actual release formalities here. Please note that there will be a limit on 1 or 2 bottles per customer for most of the products online.
I will be posting reviews of most of these whiskies (and other products) over the next few days. The tables below will be updated with links accordingly.
See this page at Vinmonopolet for details on how many bottles will be made available per shop, and which products will have a quota of 1 or 2 bottles per customer.
