Supporting resources are discovery and retrieval portals. They are not evidence by default.
Purpose and boundary
Use Whiskybase for bottle identification, structured metadata, community ratings and reviews, collections, marketplace context, retail and auction signals, and supported data services.
Evidence rule
Create a bottle-entry, review, rating-snapshot, or market-observation Source for every use and relate it under Related Sources. Do not cite this portal record directly.
