Tuesday evening myself (Emma) & Laura hopped on a train to Manchester to celebrate with Torabhaig Distillery on the release of their 2 new wh**ky’s in the Distillers Series.
We’re big fans of Torabhaig at SMB and was excited to get to sit down with Niall Culbertson, one of the distillers and Ambassador Stewart Dick to talk us though the processes of how these wh**ky’s came to be and all over a wonderful dinner & drinks.
I had the pleasure of visiting the distillery back in August of last year and got to sample the drama before they were released. So it’s even more exciting to have them available in store now so we can talk your ears off about it.
If you’re not familiar with the Distillers series or Torabhaig then consider this your sign to find out.
What makes Torabhaig so unique is the opportunities they give there distillers. The opportunity to create their own wh**ky with the freedom to explore new ideas , techniques and flavour combinations. To be with it every step of the way and really producer something that is a true expression of their personalities and completely original.
Iona’s wh**ky was inspired by her hill walks across Skye, with her dog, a dram and bar of dark chocolate.
Niall’s inspired by the sea that surrounds Skye, his fisherman farther, coastal air and his love of rum.
We’re so excited to share with you what we learnt and see for your self why we love their stuff so much.
Available from SMB now! 🥃
*unfortunately we had to leave for the train before the dessert was served, so you better believe we asked for the sticky toffee pudding to go! 😂
