A whisky tasting app for notes only you will read
Distillery, age, cask, strength: the fields you choose, and room for a long note. No community scores, no account, no subscription.
Distillery, age, cask, strength: the fields you choose, and room for a long note. No community scores, no account, no subscription.
The details that separate two bottles from the same distillery are the ones no app guesses right. So you add them: distillery, region, age, cask type, bottling, ABV, whether it's cask strength.
A template holds them, and the next dram starts with the fields already there.
Whisky is the drink people write most about, and a text box that fits a tweet is useless. Nose, palate, finish, with and without water: write as much as the dram deserves.
Or write two words. Both are valid entries here.
There's no community score to compare yourself against and no feed to post to. Nobody will tell you the 18-year-old deserves an 89.
It also means no account: the app never asks who you are, and the bottles you save stay on your device.
Drinklytics doesn't have one. There's no catalogue to search and no community ratings, so you type the name yourself. Whiskybase and Distiller both have large databases and are better than me at that particular job.
Both, and rum, gin, tequila, mezcal, brandy or anything else in the cabinet. The app doesn't have fixed categories, so you name things the way you name them.
Yes, as fields you add yourself. Add the ones you care about and skip the rest: nothing is mandatory.
Sort of: record each session as its own entry and tag them with the bottle name. There's no built-in concept of the same bottle tasted twice, which is a fair thing to want and something I'm thinking about.
It records what you drank rather than what you own, so there's no bottle count and no shelf inventory today.
No. No sign-up, no email, no profile.
Yes, free and with no subscriptions.

Drinklytics also works for wine, beer, coffee and every other drink. On iPhone? Leave your email on the home page and I'll tell you when it lands.
