## What is WhiskyCatalogue?

This app is used to record whisky bottles that you hold in your cellar or shelf, informing you of various statistics and additional information that can be located on the internet about them, like price, nose, palette & flavour

### 2.0 — 2026-03-28

What's New

  Power User Features

  - Infinity Bottle Tracking — Create and manage infinity bottles with component tracking. Each pour is logged with
  source bottle, volume, and ABV. The app automatically calculates the blended ABV using weighted averages.
  - Independent Bottler (IB) Support — Distinguish official bottlings from independent bottlers with a dedicated bottler
   type field. IB bottles get a purple badge in your collection.
  - Whisky Metadata — New fields for cask number, batch number, spirit type, and flags for limited edition, cask
  strength, non-chill filtered, and natural colour. Badges appear automatically in the detail view.
  - Dilution Calculator — A built-in tool to calculate exactly how much water to add to reach your target ABV. Enter
  starting ABV, volume, and target — get the answer instantly.
  - Vertical Tasting — Compare the same whisky across ages and vintages. The app automatically identifies distilleries
  in your collection with 2+ bottles at different ages and helps you build a structured vertical flight.

  Social & Sharing

  - Shareable Tasting Cards — Generate beautiful visual cards from any tasting session. Long-press a session and tap
  "Share as Card" to create a dark, editorial-style image with your tasting notes, ratings, flavour tags, and whisky
  colour.
  - Collection & Wishlist Cards — Share your collection stats or wishlist as a rendered image card from the Collection
  or Statistics tabs.
  - Wishlist Improvements — Priority tiers (Casual, Want, Must Have) with colour-coded badges, plus free-text wishlist
  notes on each bottle.

  Distillery Travel

  - Visit Log — Track visits to distilleries with date, tour type, rating, notes, and photos.
  - Digital Passport — A visual grid of every distillery in your collection showing which you've visited, with visit
  counts and stamps.
  - Distillery Map — MapKit-powered map with pins for 100+ distilleries worldwide. Filter by visited/unvisited.
  Coordinates auto-seeded for Scottish, Irish, Japanese, and rum-producing distilleries.
  - Bought at Distillery — Flag bottles purchased at the distillery with a teal badge in the detail view.

  Rum Support

  - 6 rum spirit types — Rhum Agricole, Molasses Rum, Dark Rum, Spiced Rum, White Rum, and Premium Rum.
  - Expanded Flavour Wheel — 3 new rum-specific categories: Tropical (Pineapple, Banana, Mango...), Funky (Dunder, Hogo,
   Ester...), and Sugarcane (Molasses, Demerara, Raw Sugar...). Now 14 categories with 78 flavour tags.
  - 40+ rum distillery coordinates — Jamaica, Barbados, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Guyana, Trinidad, Guatemala, Venezuela,
  Cuba, Panama, and more.
  - AI label recognition now detects rum bottles alongside whisky.

  Design Revamp

  - Dark Luxury Editorial — Complete visual overhaul. Deep charcoal backgrounds, refined gold accents, Georgia serif
  headings, and monospaced numbers give the app a premium whisky journal feel.
  - Staggered fade-in animations on collection grid and discovery sections.
  - Redesigned bottle cards with muted badge system, gold fill-level indicator, and monospaced metadata.
  - Dark action cards replace the previous colourful gradient buttons throughout Discovery.
  - Gold/copper chart scheme in Statistics for a cohesive, sophisticated look.
