37	Loch Lomond	Scotland	Loch Lomond Whiskies Reveals Complete Brand Refresh	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh which includes redesigned packaging across its domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges.	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh throughout Domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges.		5th August 2020	2020-08-05	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh which includes redesigned packaging across its domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges.	/images/loch-lomond/Loch-Lomond-Whiskies-refresh.jpg	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh which includes redesigned packaging across its domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges. The investment comes after strong business growth over the past five years which has seen Loch Lomond Whiskies become one of the top five fastest growing single malt brands in the world, listed in over 125 markets. The new look packaging introduces a more contemporary aesthetic alongside simple flavour descriptors allowing consumers to easily navigate their way through the portfolio. The restructured portfolio brings the Inchmurrin 12 year old and Inchmoan 12 year old under the Loch Lomond Whiskies brand, forming the heart of the range alongside Loch Lomond 12 year old. These three expressions demonstrate the capability of Loch Lomond's innovative distillation and long fermentation, which can deliver a range of flavour profiles, from the light and fruity Inchmurrin to the heavily peated Inchmoan, with Loch Lomond 12 year old in between. Loch Lomond Original, Loch Lomond Classic, Loch Lomond 10 year old and Loch Lomond 18 year old complete the domestic portfolio. A further three aged Loch Lomond single malts are due for release later in 2020, building the appeal of the range. John Grieveson, Chief Marketing Officer, commented: "We recognise that in a growing and increasingly fragmented market the continued success of the Loch Lomond Whiskies portfolio depends on our ability to clearly communicate what makes our whiskies so unique. The breadth of flavour characteristics available across the range is unrivalled across the industry. Our investment in this brand refresh allows us to better communicate this range of flavour profiles to consumers, as well as improving stand out of the Loch Lomond Whiskies brand, and celebrating our much-loved location close to the banks of Loch Lomond." The new look packaging retains the familiar stag icon and features a more prominent Loch Lomond brand name and age statement to increase visibility on shelf. The outline of the famous Loch Lomond has been incorporated into the background of each gift box, celebrating the distillery's enviable location. A simple flavour descriptor also features on both the gift box and bottle. The design will also be rolled out across the Loch Lomond Whiskies Global Travel Retail range, better aligning the two collections, and improving brand recognition. In 2018, Loch Lomond Whiskies entered a prestigious, five-year partnership with The Open, golf's original championship. The partnership with The R&A includes support of the AIG Women's British Open and showcases the full range of Loch Lomond Whiskies on a global scale. In February 2020, Loch Lomond Whiskies concluded a new agreement with the Professional Golfers' Association (The PGA) to become a 'PGA Partner' and the title sponsor of the Scottish PGA Championship. More recently Loch Lomond Whiskies, have confirmed their commitment to golf as new sponsor of the European Tour's newly launched 'UK Swing' in July and August. Founded in 1814, the Loch Lomond distillery can trace its roots back to the Littlemill distillery, which was established in 1772 and is the oldest licensed distillery in the world. Its current malt and grain distilleries, in Alexandria, Dunbartonshire, close to the banks of Loch Lomond, were commissioned in 1964 with first distillation in 1966. When it opened, Loch Lomond distillery's ground-breaking straight necked stills were a revelation, enabling production of a lighter, fruitier spirit and greater control over the whisky's character. Under the later ownership of the Bulloch family further distilling innovation took place with the aim of being self-sufficient. It is among only four distilleries in the Scotch whisky industry to maintain an onsite cooperage which makes and maintains 20,000 casks annually.

In the far northwest, in the shadow of the imposing mountain of Sliabh Liag, a double-distilled smoky spirit made from Irish peated malt has been filled into a first-fill bourbon oak cask by Sliabh Liag Distillers (SLD). It is the first time since the closure of Burt Distillery in 1841 that legal whiskey distillation has taken place in Donegal. The small-batch production at its Carrick facility will help the company's founders and distillers, James and Moira Doherty, undertake valuable research and development while the business's new whiskey distillery at Ardara is under construction. The timing also marks an important period in Sliabh Liag Distillery's history as it prepares for a crowd-funding launch on Wednesday 26th August to help raise €1.5m of capital for the new distillery. Commenting on the landmark occasion, James Doherty, SLD Founder, said: "We've done it! It's only now that the first cask is filled, ready to mature into a smoky single malt Irish whiskey that we feel we have really returned to Donegal. When Moira and I moved back here in 2014, it was with the dream of reigniting the county's distilling heritage, and with the Crolly and Baoilleach distilleries, the county is getting there. Our new spirit smells lovely and drinks even better; it is soft and smoky sweet with a fresh pear note and a hint of treacle." "While the success of our An D�lam�n gin and Silkie and Dark Silkie blended Irish whiskeys has been rewarding", James says, "the distilling genes in me knew this scatterling's return wouldn't be complete without an Irish malt flowing from the stills. While Burt Distillery ceased production in 1841, we know illegal distilling continued during the intermittent years, not least by my grandfather who was creating a smoky, double distilled spirit under the authorities' radar on the hills' up the glen' in Kilcar. I think my grandfather would approve that we are now distilling the first legal whiskey in Donegal for nearly 200 years, and there's a lovely sense of coming full circle." "There has been a fair amount of blood, sweat and tears to get to this point - especially last week in hand-mashing 500L of wort for brewing - but it's given us a huge lift as we embark on the next stage in both our and Donegal's history. Turf has been turned at the site of the Ardara Distillery and we launch our fundraising exercise on Crowdcube in a few weeks' time. Once we are up and running there, the future of Donegal Irish Whiskey will be even brighter." James added. The new make spirit is exceptionally soft and is fresh, citrusy and has rich chocolate notes to complement the pronounced smoke. It has been made from Irish Craft Malts barley grown in Meath and some malted over peat from M�n na bhFachra�n. The smoky profile of the spirit is true to what was being distilled in Ulster 200 years ago, and like the county itself, a contrast to the rest of Ireland in character. It was distilled twice in SLD's copper pot still, known as M�abh. This first run of spirit has been filled into a first fill bourbon oak cask. The creation of the spirit was delayed from earlier this year when Sliabh Liag Distillers turned its focus to creating hand sanitizer for the local community during the early stages of the pandemic. When this very first whiskey is ready for bottling, it will give some indication of what James, Moira and the 'meitheal' (work-gang) around them aim to produce at Ardara Distillery. The hope is to make Donegal to Ireland what Islay is to Scotland.	/latest_whisky_news/sliabh-liag-distillers-reclaims-donegals-whiskey-heritage-with-first-legal-distillation-in-nearly-200-years.html	1

This was the beginning of a journey that would take Johnnie Walker to the four corners of the globe, making it the world's No 1 Scotch whisky (IWSR 2019) All four releases - including a new bottle design and three newly crafted whiskies - are a celebration of the incredible journey, pioneering spirit and dedication to quality that was started by John Walker all those years ago. JOHNNIE WALKER BLUE LABEL 200TH ANNIVERSARY LIMITED EDITION DESIGN The new 200th Anniversary Limited Edition Design for the iconic Johnnie Walker Blue Label features bespoke illustrations that bring to life the bold journey and pay homage to some of the great cities and countries that have been part of the Johnnie Walker story. There are also incredible illustrations of geographical landmarks and cultural symbols which represent progress in our time in each of their respective countries. JOHNNIE WALKER BLUE LABEL LEGENDARY EIGHT An exclusive release celebrating 200 years of bold and passionate craft. It is a smooth, mellow Scotch crafted using some of the very rarest whiskies in the unparalleled Johnnie Walker reserves. Each whisky is hand selected from only eight legendary distilleries that all existed when John Walker made the first steps on his journey, including some very rare expressions from long-closed "ghost" distilleries. JOHN WALKER & SONS CELEBRATORY BLEND This exclusive release is inspired by a breakthrough moment in John Walker & Sons' history - the launch of Old Highland Whisky in the 1860s, the company's first commercial blend to travel from Scotland to the four corners of the world. This rich and complex whisky is inspired by the flavours found in the Walker family's grocery store in the 1860s and uses whiskies from distilleries which were operating at that time. The exclusive pack design reveals the only existing image of the Kilmarnock grocery store 200 years ago. JOHN WALKER & SONS BICENTENARY BLEND A celebration of where it all began; this exceptional whisky is a sensorial journey down the fragrant aisles of John Walker's original grocery store in Scotland. Master Blender Jim Beveridge and his team have drawn inspiration from John's store and meticulously crafted a whisky with rich layers that re-imagines the exotic flavours that shaped his imagination. It is crafted with rare and exceptional whiskies, all aged for at least 28 years, including whiskies from long-closed "ghost" distilleries such as Pittyvaich, Cambus and Port Ellen. Johnnie Walker Master Blender, Jim Beveridge, said: "Each of these exclusive releases bring a fresh perspective to our 200th anniversary story and are the perfect way to celebrate this huge moment for Johnnie Walker. It feels very apt to be announcing them this week to coincide with John Walker's birthday." Diageo Global Scotch Director, John Williams, said: "Our 200th anniversary releases are inspired by the moment our founder, John Walker, first opened the door to his grocer's store in Kilmarnock - taking the first step on an incredible journey for Johnnie Walker. "John's spark, vision and entrepreneurial fire were the impetus to growing the John Walker name, our business and ultimately a new future for Scotch whisky. This year we're celebrating the steps he first took - steps that have inspired generations of our whisky makers and are at the heart of everything we do today and will do tomorrow." All four exclusive releases will launch from October onwards, subject to market distribution and availability, for a limited period only.* For further information, please see: https://www.johnniewalker.com/en/our-whisky/limited-edition-whiskies/	/latest_whisky_news/johnnie-walker-celebrates-200th-anniversary-with-four-exclusive-releases.html	1

37	Loch Lomond	Scotland	Loch Lomond Whiskies Reveals Complete Brand Refresh	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh which includes redesigned packaging across its domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges.	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh throughout Domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges.		5th August 2020	2020-08-05	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh which includes redesigned packaging across its domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges.	/images/loch-lomond/Loch-Lomond-Whiskies-refresh.jpg	Loch Lomond Whiskies has unveiled a complete brand refresh which includes redesigned packaging across its domestic and Global Travel Retail single malt Scotch whisky ranges. The investment comes after strong business growth over the past five years which has seen Loch Lomond Whiskies become one of the top five fastest growing single malt brands in the world, listed in over 125 markets. The new look packaging introduces a more contemporary aesthetic alongside simple flavour descriptors allowing consumers to easily navigate their way through the portfolio. The restructured portfolio brings the Inchmurrin 12 year old and Inchmoan 12 year old under the Loch Lomond Whiskies brand, forming the heart of the range alongside Loch Lomond 12 year old. These three expressions demonstrate the capability of Loch Lomond's innovative distillation and long fermentation, which can deliver a range of flavour profiles, from the light and fruity Inchmurrin to the heavily peated Inchmoan, with Loch Lomond 12 year old in between. Loch Lomond Original, Loch Lomond Classic, Loch Lomond 10 year old and Loch Lomond 18 year old complete the domestic portfolio. A further three aged Loch Lomond single malts are due for release later in 2020, building the appeal of the range. John Grieveson, Chief Marketing Officer, commented: "We recognise that in a growing and increasingly fragmented market the continued success of the Loch Lomond Whiskies portfolio depends on our ability to clearly communicate what makes our whiskies so unique. The breadth of flavour characteristics available across the range is unrivalled across the industry. Our investment in this brand refresh allows us to better communicate this range of flavour profiles to consumers, as well as improving stand out of the Loch Lomond Whiskies brand, and celebrating our much-loved location close to the banks of Loch Lomond." The new look packaging retains the familiar stag icon and features a more prominent Loch Lomond brand name and age statement to increase visibility on shelf. The outline of the famous Loch Lomond has been incorporated into the background of each gift box, celebrating the distillery's enviable location. A simple flavour descriptor also features on both the gift box and bottle. The design will also be rolled out across the Loch Lomond Whiskies Global Travel Retail range, better aligning the two collections, and improving brand recognition. In 2018, Loch Lomond Whiskies entered a prestigious, five-year partnership with The Open, golf's original championship. The partnership with The R&A includes support of the AIG Women's British Open and showcases the full range of Loch Lomond Whiskies on a global scale. In February 2020, Loch Lomond Whiskies concluded a new agreement with the Professional Golfers' Association (The PGA) to become a 'PGA Partner' and the title sponsor of the Scottish PGA Championship. More recently Loch Lomond Whiskies, have confirmed their commitment to golf as new sponsor of the European Tour's newly launched 'UK Swing' in July and August. Founded in 1814, the Loch Lomond distillery can trace its roots back to the Littlemill distillery, which was established in 1772 and is the oldest licensed distillery in the world. Its current malt and grain distilleries, in Alexandria, Dunbartonshire, close to the banks of Loch Lomond, were commissioned in 1964 with first distillation in 1966. When it opened, Loch Lomond distillery's ground-breaking straight necked stills were a revelation, enabling production of a lighter, fruitier spirit and greater control over the whisky's character. Under the later ownership of the Bulloch family further distilling innovation took place with the aim of being self-sufficient. It is among only four distilleries in the Scotch whisky industry to maintain an onsite cooperage which makes and maintains 20,000 casks annually.
