inspiration from
NOTES ON A CELLAR-BOOK by GEORGE SAINTSBURY published 1920
“...The more excellent way - formerly practised by all persons of some sense and some means north of the Tweed - is to establish a cask,...fill it up with good and drinkable whisky,...stand it up on end, tap it half way down or even a little higher, and, when you get to or near the tap, fill it up again with whisky fit to drink, but not too old. You thus establish what is called in the case of sherry a ‘solera,’ in which the constantly changing character of the old constituents doctors the new accessions, and in which these in turn freshen and strengthen the old.”
