so far I have not been able to find a single bit of evidence to suggest that knowledge of the distilling of alcoholic spirits existed in Wales centuries before it spread over the rest of Europe (and if anyone does know of such evidence, please get in touch with me!). Welsh whisky did come into existence later, so Wales certainly earned its place in whisky history ….. but that is for future articles!Claim refuted in the article
