- Check every factual statement against a current primary or otherwise permitted source.
- Replace old bottle recommendations, retail prices and availability with the current catalogue where relevant.
- Add a current introduction, title, description and internal links for the intended blog audience.
- Review alcohol-marketing wording and disclose any commercial relationship before publication.
- Resolve overlap with Whiskipedia: retain an editorial angle or link there for the enduring explanation.
