Mail fra Malt Maniacs:
Malt Maniacs #102 isn't quite ready yet (it's scheduled for March 1) but we have so much news I felt it was time for a message to the mailinglist. First of all, our infamous Italian fake friend Sergio Borroni is active on the web again, now under the name 'whiskyseller'. Fortunately, the maniacs recognise his style by now and we've set our 'Malt Mercenary' Joep van Drunen on his trail when we sniffed him out. His latest trick:
A Macallan from 1940. You can dig around a little on: www.biddersnsellers.com/cgi-bin/auction/view?cmd=view&listingID=40986
Joep's rapid response has already resulted in the suspension of the account.
Meanwhile, in Germany Mr. Andreas Jacobs is peddling his suspect bottlings again as well. We felt that his appearance on the 'fake alert' page on Malt Maniacs should have been warning enough - but it seems some of the probable fakes were actually sold. But then again, it could have been Mr. Jacobs buying them back again under a pseudonym.

Hur är det med Laphroaig Highgrove och Glan Flagler på whiskyauction.com?
Finns det skäl att vara försiktig?

Whiskyauction brukar man kunna lita på, de kan sina grejer. Highgroven ser ut att vara komplett, med rätt folie och en riktig låda.
