The Guardian has quietly reinstated an Israeli whisky after it mysteriously deleted it from a drinks column.

At the bottom of the article, it added: “This article was amended on 5 November 2024 to reinstate a reference to a whisky from the M&H distillery.”

The paper has not responded to questions from the JC either about why it reinstated the whisky or the reason it was removed in the first place.

Henry Jeffreys, a well-known food writer who penned the column, had included the award-winning M&H distillery from Israel in his piece this week.
