In the current edition of Outturn, we introduce you to the westernmost distillery in Scotland: Ardnamurchan. Alex Bruce has given us detailed information in the form of an interview.

I don’t know about you, but to this day I still sometimes shake my head and can hardly comprehend the situation and don’t know what to believe anymore. Who would have thought this 12 months ago? One thing is for sure, 2020 is definitely coming to an end now; whether 2021 will really be that …
One year ago, we were in the starting blocks for our “25 Years Society” celebrations in Switzerland and had the opportunity to spend some great evenings with Olaf.

The society let the members vote on this on Facebook, and over three-quarters of the members were in favour …
In times of crisis, the only constant is uncertainty. But society members have another constant – the arrival of new, richly varied bottlings. Unfortunately, we also had to cancel the May tastings; all members who had reservations have already been informed personally. We will stick to the June dates and hope that by then we …
