A Right Royal Brew- St Valentine’s Ideas
First Scotch from Annandale for 100Years
After nearly a century of neglect the Annandale Whisky Distillery is back in business and the first bottles have been drawn. The brewery as you will recall was closed by Johnny Walker in 1919, but such is the interest in Scotch worldwide that after a multi-million investment whisky is on the go go there again. (Sorry for my Whisky A Go Go joke).
Robert the Bruce Tribute
Named in tribute to Robert the Bruce the peated ‘Man o’ Swords’ is the first whisky to be drawn. It is in the same brand stable as the unpeated ‘Man o’ Words’ whisky, which is a tribute to Robert Burns. The distillery is near Annan. And there whisky distillation isn’t new to Dumfriesshire. In the latter part of the 19th Century, three distilleries were producing locally. They took advantage of the abundance of peat for malting barley. However all had closed by 1920.
And of Course St Valentine’s for Him
You’ll want a present for himself perhaps and what better place to come, to buy not the dram but the fine glass in which to put the dram in and make it even better. Our fine whisky gifts will set many a mouth to water thinking of the amber delight and the pleasures of the single malt. Look no further please. You can’t go wrong I say.
