Justerini & Brooks’ relationship with whisky stretches
back through the generations. To this day, our bond with the great Scottish
distilleries continues to flourish - our access to Scotland’s finest casks is
unrivalled.
With Burns Night celebrations in full swing this evening, we know
that nothing's better than a world-class bottle of Scotch to mark the occasion.
So, we thought this was the perfect time to share the trip Team Justerinis took
last month to Scotland.
Spending an incredible few days exploring the best Scotland
has to offer, the team visited an astonishing selection of distilleries, sampling
a plenitude of rare gems, including Johnnie Walker's King George V. Highlights
included Cardhu, the Singleton of Glen Ord and Port Ellen as well as filling Royal
Lochnagar casks. The team sampled some utterly delicious blends and extraordinary
single grain whiskies. Suffice to say, it was a memorable trip; with a variety
of complex, thought-provoking glasses of whisky and a series of special
bottlings, including Johnnie Walker's Ghost & Rare, Team Justerinis returned (despite almost being snowed in), with a great passion for Speyside. With Burns Night
celebrations just a dram away, we hope you will be raising a toast in homage to
Scotland's finest this evening.
