Our community members have been great about sharing their recommendations for whisky bars around the world. If you’re traveling to a new city and want to find a good whisky bar, start with this list. If you find a good one that’s not on the list, let us know about it and we’ll add it to the list. By the way, bars do come and go frequently, and if you see one here that’s no longer in business, please let us know about that as well.
