The access is free. In order to view the video course, users will have to login to Warehouse 24 (for this sake, users will be asked to fill in the registration form).

‘There is no qualification at the end of this course, but there is nothing like sharing what you know with your friends», authors of the Balvenie online course suggest.

Speaking of the history of creating of Balvenie Whisky Academy and people behind it, Dr.Whisky—a promotional character of Balvenie, mentions in his blog, «In working with film-maker Stuey Burnett, we initially imagined a series of films for the education of William Grant employees, sales and distribution partners. What we quickly realised was that we had something taking shape that would be of interest and benefit to the wider whisky drinking world, as well».

«What I am most proud of is that The Whisky Academy is not a «brand» video, it is not an advertisement, it is an educational series of films about the wider category of Scotch Whisky featuring Charles MacLean, Sukhinder Singh, Eddie Ludlow, Arthur Motley, and Gavin D. Smith as well as colleagues, distillers, scientists, and, of course, yours truly».
