The Whisky Exchange launched what it describes as “ Alcohol free Whisky, Gin, Vodka, Rum, Cognac “, the company says that the product is designed as “ Introducing Clean Spirits: a range of great-tasting alcohol-free spirits from The Whisky Exchange. Forget clean eating, this is clean drinking… ”

Claiming that The Whisky Exchange promotional claim describing the product as “CLEAN DRINKING…. ” is illegal under UK and EEC laws.

Claiming that The Whisky Exchange promotional claim, describing the product as Alcohol Free Whisky produced of Scotland, Alcohol Free Cognac produced of France , Alcohol Free Vodka produced of Russia, Alcohol Free Rum produced of Jamaica , Alcohol Free Gin produced of Scotland is illegal under UK and European Law, the Scottish Spirits Association says that laws are in place in EUROPE and USA to maintain the reputation of Scotch Whisky , Gin, Vodka, Rum, and Cognac as a quality product to protect the consumers.
