30 Tables Now Filled for 2011
Posted by Mark in Exhibitors, General on April 16, 2011
Bruichladdich have once again taken a stand at our event bringing us up to 30 tables of the 40 now full. The website will be updated over the weekend to list all 30 and with tickets just about sold out we’re looking at another cracking event. This year we have a couple of changes from last time which we will disclose to you as and when things have been finalised between now and November. We once again have a couple of exclusives up our sleeve. Stay tuned.
Photos of Glasgow’s Whisky Festival
Despite having my camera with me I neglected to take it out of the bag the whole day due to being a little bit busy. Tsk.
Thankfully many of you guys were snapping away during the event and photos are showing up on Facebook and Flickr. In fact I’ve created a Flickr group for you to add your photos to: www.flickr.com/groups/1598682@N22
Please feel free to add your photos or let us see what you snapped on any other website you use.
Ralfy Videos of the Event
Our old pal Ralfy recorded several videos of the day capturing the atmosphere and the people. All 23 vlogs are now online at whiskyreviews.blogspot.com
Thanks Ralfy!
Glasgow’s Whisky Festival 2011
It has been less than a week since our highly successful inaugural event but we are by no means resting on our laurels. The feedback has been amazing and the exhibitors are so excited by what we have created in Glasgow that we already have half the stands for next year filled.
Glasgow’s Whisky Festival 2011 will take place once again in The Arches on Saturday 19th November at 1pm. Tickets will be on sale from December 1st 2010 and we expect a high demand. Book early to avoid disappointment and all that jazz.
Next year we are hoping to continue our exclusives with the first festival tasting of Abhainn Dearg single malt whisky and new spirit from Kingsbarns distillery in Fife. We will hopefully have many more announcements to make in the next 52 weeks.
A big thank you from Bill and myself to everyone who helped make Glasgow’s Whisky Festival a roaring success!
Master of Malt

Online retailer and independent bottler Master of Malt are joining us on Saturday to show their Drinks by the Drams and their excellent bottlings. We are extremely pleased to have them on board with their own malts now as well as their involvement in the Whisky4Movember stand.

Last But Not Least…
Posted by Mark in Exhibitors on October 21, 2010
Unfortunately Robert Graham have pulled out of the event. We have a replacement, though, in the form of Islay’s newest distillery Kilchoman. We are delighted to announce them as our final exhibitor and we hope you enjoy the varied lineup that we have put together. Roll on November 13th!
All Sold Out!
Tickets at The Arches have now all sold out. Thank you to everyone who has bought one and we hope you have a great day at the festival and in Glasgow too.
See you then!

Whisky writer David Stirk’s Creative Whisky Co will now be attending our festival (sadly without David). David is also bottling the official festival bottling which will be revealed in the near future…
