Last year, GlenDronach malt whisky
selected a single cask from its
Aberdeenshire distillery...and took it
round Belgium in the back of a van!
The quirky tasting tour - called "Cask
in a Van" - proved so successful that
they're repeating it again this year.
The Roadshow starts in Kampenhoudt on
September 21 and ends in Zottegem on
September 25.
Regional Sales Director James Cowan
said: "As our advertising slogan says,
we're taking the brand "on a journey of
re-discovery" around Belgium, one of our
fastest-growing markets.
"Following the phenomenal success of
last year's tour, which was a huge hit
with Belgian whisky fans, we're proud to
announce details of our new 2010 tour.
"Once again we'll be out in force with
our special liveried van offering
Belgians a unique chance to taste and
purchase a truly excellent GlenDronach
single cask whisky - this time it’s a
2002 release, which has been matured in
a Bourbon barrel. In addition, we'll be
offering tastings of our award-winning
12, 15 and 18 year-old core range.
"Like last year, people will be given
the opportunity to fill their own bottle
of GlenDronach straight from the
cask...charcoal, sheep's hair and all!
As it's a limited edition, it's going to
be a highly collectable item.
"This is clearly an occasion not to be
missed and is a highlight of our
calendar of events in Belgium.
"And in addition to the "Cask In A Van"
whisky, we'll also be dropping a few
GlenDronach crackers into the mix."
GlenDronach's core range is available in
over one hundred specialist stores
throughout Belgium.
