Explore the history of the Scotch Whisky industry and find out the true heritage of Scotland's national drink in a new exhibition at the Scottish Parliament.

A highlight of the Scotch Whisky Association's centenary celebrations, this exciting exhibition will show Scotch Whisky's strong cultural heritage, its position as an iconic Scottish product and demonstrate how vital it is to the country's economy and society. The exhibition will also chart landmark events in the last 100 years.

Visitors can see images and iconic artefacts exploring the story of how whisky is made, marketed and exported. This will be the first time historical material from many company archives has been brought together in one place. Many objects will be on public display for the first time ever.

Find out things you never knew about Scotland's national drink and heritage.
