DramKeep is the whiskey collection app built for people who actually collect — bourbon hunters, single-barrel chasers, and anyone who wants to know what's on their shelf and what it's worth. Catalog every bottle with the details that matter: distillery, proof, cask, and — finally — proper single-barrel and store-pick tracking (store, pick name, barrel number). Log a pour in seconds and watch your remaining volume, collection value, and cost-per-dram update instantly. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Track your whole collection — open, sealed, or finished • Single-barrel & store-pick fields built in (the detail other apps skip) • Tasting notes — nose / palate / finish — plus your own rating • Collection value and cost-per-dram on every bottle • Pour Picker — can't decide? Let DramKeep pick tonight's dram • Wishlist the bottles you're still hunting • Share a beautiful "Shelfie" of your collection — show only what you want • Export to PDF or CSV anytime — your data is always yours NO SUBSCRIPTION TRAPS Unlimited bottles. No 499-bottle cap. A one-time DramKeep Pro unlock — yours forever. PRIVATE & FAST Works offline, no account required. Your collection syncs across your devices with iCloud. Made for collectors, by someone who kept losing track of what was already on the shelf.

DramWise is the whiskey collection tracker built for real shelves: log ANY bottle by hand in about 30 seconds, keep tasting notes that respect the dram, and watch your collection's value add up. No account, no bottle caps, and your data is never hostage. LOG ANY BOTTLE - Manual-entry-first: store picks, single barrels, stopper letters, batch numbers, dusty finds. Nothing is ever "not in the database." - Label photos from your camera roll - Sealed, open, and finished states, with pour logging and fill levels TASTING NOTES, DONE RIGHT - Structured nose, palate, and finish fields with a 100-point score - Notes stay with their bottle, and your latest score badges the shelf YOUR COLLECTION, VALUED - Price paid and current value per bottle - A dashboard with total value, bottle counts, and a by-style breakdown - Tonight's pour: a picker that only ever suggests OPEN bottles, never your sealed collectibles FREE FOREVER - UNLIMITED bottle logging: no caps, ever, enforced in the app's code - Tasting notes, pour tracking, wishlist, search, sort, and filters - CSV export AND import, free: switching from another tracker takes one tap, and leaving is just as easy - The shelf widget DRAMWISE PRO - Collection analytics: value over time, paper gains vs what you paid, spend by style and distillery, drinking pace - Tasting-note search and stats - The full widget collection WHY COLLECTORS SWITCH TO DRAMWISE - No account and no sign-up. Your collection lives on your iPhone, with optional sync to your personal, private iCloud. We never see it. - No scanner roulette. Database-driven apps fail on exactly the bottles collectors care about; manual-first means DramWise never does. - Honest billing. Everything goes through the App Store: trials remind you before they convert, and cancelling takes two taps in iOS Settings. - An exit door, on purpose. Free CSV export means your collection is never held hostage. DramWise is a collection inventory and tasting journal. It does not sell alcohol or facilitate purchasing it. Please enjoy responsibly. DramWise Pro is an auto-renewing subscription; a one-time lifetime unlock is also offered. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Title, length, and price are shown on the purchase screen before you buy.
