In November a confident Chancellor boasted that he understood the injustice of the tax regime on drink, particularly Scotch. However, hopes for a reduction in the rate of duty were little compen- sated by a third successive freeze. The following week a spiteful Mr Clarke Photo courtesy Customer Conniff lashed out a 4% increase in alcohol duty ‘INTRODUCTION TO MALT WHISKY’ WEEKENDS to plug a hole in his assumptions.

    PATIENCE ISN’T JUST A VIRTUE, IT’S AN INGREDIENT TIME HONOURED Glen Scotia distillery is situated in Campbeltown, one of the 5 recognised regions of Scotch whisky making in Scotland. Founded in 1832, Glen Scotia is one of only 3 distilleries producing in this area. With a style unique to Campbeltown, Glen Scotia distils both peated and non-peated single malt. At a time where malt lovers are on a quest of discovery, Campbeltown is the final frontier and last great whisky-making region in Scotland. Campbeltown was once hailed in the Victorian Age as the ‘Whisky Capital of the World’. Today, only 3 distilleries remain.

This is the heartland of whisky and is a popular destination for whisky enthusiasts from all around the world. Many come to devote themselves to the Holy Mother of Malts! Home to over half of the distilleries around Scotland, it is a treat to discover an array of aromas and flavours that will leave you wanting more.
