Whisky Focus - Haig Club Clubman Review

Haig Club expand their range with the launch of Haig Club Clubman.

Haig Club Single Grain Scotch Whisky have added a new expression to their core whisky range which I am sure you will all know by now is the chosen dram of global icon David Beckham and British entrepreneur Simon Fuller.

Haig Club Clubman is the new expression, a single grain whisky produced at the Cameronbridge Grain Whisky Distillery. Haig tell me that Clubman has inherited the same bold and progressive spirit as Haig Club - designed to be different, stylish and modern whilst incorporating the House of Haig’s almost 400 year heritage. The inspiration for the name can be found in advertising materials dating back to the 1920s, in which Haig was advertised as "The Clubman’s Whisky".

Matured exclusively in American Oak casks that have previously held Bourbon and bottled at 40% ABV, Haig Club Clubman is presented in a distinctive blue glass square decanter style bottle, it is a permanent addition to the Haig Club range and launches in the UK this month with a recommended retail price of £25, launches in further markets are subject of future announcements.

Brand partners David Beckham and Simon Fuller are delighted that consumer response to the award-winning Haig Club brand means that Diageo is now able to launch Haig Club Clubman.

Beckham commented: "Working closely with Diageo, we look forward to welcoming Clubman into the Haig Club family. From its earliest days, Scotch Whisky has attracted people from all over the world with its sophistication, style and distinctive array of flavours. We want to continue in this spirit, bringing to market a special new whisky and introducing new fans to this incredible industry."
