Interactive Catalog Live Demo
Test our real-time filtering engine. Query by spirit category, minimum age statement, cask maturation styles, and sensory flavor tags.
Data Architecture & Provenance Engine
How we transform chaotic public web registries and disparate market dumps into clean, relational, institutional-grade datasets.
9 Integrated Sources
Continuous automated ingestion from Wikidata, Wikipedia, Open Food Facts, TTB COLA Registry, UK Companies House, EU eAmbrosia, and WhiskyHunter auction archives.
4-Tier Normalization
Automated cleaning pipelines standardize ABV percentages, bottle volumes to mL, grain mash bills to exact ratios, and secondary market auction prices to USD.
Deep Lineage Mapping
Relational linking between spirits, brand owners, independent bottlers, distilleries, hierarchical cask taxonomies, and standardized sensory flavor wheels.
Transparent Commercial Pricing
Choose the tier that fits your development scale. From open-source research to global institutional trading platforms.

Developer Quickstart
The read-only REST API ships with the API & Valuation license: a dedicated endpoint and key are provisioned for you on signup โ request access below. Here's what integration looks like:
# Query spirits with Sherry Cask maturation and Peat Smoke flavor
curl -X GET "https://YOUR-PROVISIONED-ENDPOINT/api/v1/spirits?cask_style=Sherry&flavor_tag=Peat+Smoke&limit=10" \
-H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Accept: application/json"
import requests
# Query WhiskyDB REST API for Single Malt Scotch with valuations
headers = {"X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"}
params = {
"spirit_type": "Single Malt Scotch",
"min_age": 16,
"limit": 20
}
response = requests.get("https://YOUR-PROVISIONED-ENDPOINT/api/v1/spirits", headers=headers, params=params)
spirits = response.json()["data"]
for bottle in spirits:
print(f"{bottle['name']} ({bottle['abv_percentage']}% ABV) - {bottle['distillery']['name']}")
ยง 04 ยท Frequently Asked Questions
Common inquiries regarding WhiskyDB normalization standards, schema, valuations, and licensing.
What data attributes are included in the WhiskyDB spirits database?
Every spirit record in WhiskyDB is normalized with exact ABV percentage, age statement, bottle volume in ml, standardized mash bill percentages (corn, rye, wheat, malted barley), precise cask maturation lineage (e.g. First-Fill Oloroso Sherry, Mizunara Oak), primary sensory tags, and distillery provenance.
How often are the secondary market auction valuations updated?
The API & Valuation tier ($99/mo) updates real auction market indices and pricing indicators on a monthly schedule, tracking major global spirits auction houses and producer price sheets.
Can I download a free sample before purchasing a commercial license?
Yes! You can immediately download our public CSV sample datasets (spirits.csv and distilleries.csv) from our open-source GitHub repository or explore them interactively via our Hugging Face Sample Explorer without requiring an API key.
How does WhiskyDB verify distillery mash bills and cask lineages?
We combine producer-published spec sheets, government label filings (TTB COLA records), and verified historical distillery ledgers into an immutable provenance chain with source citations for every determination.
