Description

We meet in Glasgow city centre usually in George square near to Queeen street Railway station (between the stone lions) the guide usually wears a yellow Hi-Viz-Vest. A short walk to a local pub with the guide giving you some of the history of Glasgow and the area. How did Scotland become the pre-eminent producer of Whisky in the world. Outshining the USA, Ireland and the Cognac industries of Europe. Glasgow with it's history and involvement in the slave and tobacco trade put it in a unique place and by accident the traditions of the whisky industry were born here. we will visit a local and traditional Glasgow pub, at least two hundred years old. The pub is a Glasgow favourite for many and years steeped in history and tales of the past. In a private area of the pub the guide will tell tales of the history of the pub and some of the story of Scotland and Glasgow's relationship with alcohol particularly whisky. Scotland's leading export and as the world's largest supplier of single and original Malt Whiskies Glasgow stands at the centre of this ancient trade. A tasting sample of four whisky types will be provided for you to sample and an explanation by the guide. Non alcohol drinks can also be provided. We will sample Whiskey from three of Scotland's whisky areas: Highland Speyside Lowland Islay each with its own characteristic taste, style and presentation. Enjoy a 'Dram' hearing tales of Scotland and Glasgow with someone who's lived here almost if not all his life. The journey starts in George square and ends 1.5 hours later less than half a mile away.
