Haggis, Neeps and Tatties. With whisky sauce and wee trees. whilst enjoying this stunning delicacy, my 15yo googled.. "what do haggis actually look like?" An image of a little furry creature with a side parting came up, I didn't know whether to laugh, cry or fess up. ๐ Delicious ๐๐ฅ๐พ

Grain whisky is often perceived as a "lesser" category. In truth there is more freedom when making grain whisky, and it can be every bit as good as a single malt. With our 'flavour first' approach, we show just how good a gain whisky can be.
