THE DRAMBLER - Old dusties, Elgin Whisky Club and stylish bottles w/ Matt Laird (Part 2)
<p><br></p><p>Matt Laird, a man who has walked, hiked, camped and drank his way around this wonderful land. Scotland isn’t just whisky, lochs, highland cows, haggis and so on - it is the amalgamation of them all which creates a scene only artists can portray. Matt, also known as @thedrambler, gives us insight into his whisky rambling knowledge while pouring me some fantastic drams! </p><br><p>He founded the Elgin Whisky Club in 2025 and it has already garnered an enthusiastic, loyal community. Amongst all of the chat we follow tangents into murky waters of whisky fomo, collecting and indulging. Too many of us have caught the buying bug and many a time regretted it. It’s a blether for the curious explorers amongst us. This is a long one, so take your time and savour it. </p><br><p>Slainte! </p><p>LIKE - FOLLOW - SHARE</p><br><p>@whiskypilgrims</p><p>whiskypilgrims@gmail.com</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

WHEN PILGRIMS MEET - Stovies, Ardnahoe and Sgian-Dubh’s’ w/ Michael Gellie (Part 2)
<p>A chance encounter forged an instant friendship on the well-trodden path to liquid eutopia. One afternoon, I received an email from a lucky Springbank ballot winner that would not only result in a new pal - but another whisky pilgrim with a heap of stories.</p><p>This episode is more akin to striking up a conversation with that stranger you meet in the pub, when you go for a quiet one. Michael paints a picture of his youth growing up around Aberdeenshire pre and post oil boom, its impact on the communities, their lifestyle and social structure. We get nostalgic about grannies cooking, debate the correct way to make Stovies and discuss a trail blazing new cocktail he has created.</p><p>Like a good book this episode invites you to keep turning the page to see what is next, and honestly, we could have recorded for hours. He shares the love for his wife and family in supporting his whisky hobby – also how important it is to have balance and discipline when indulging in such a luxury. The craft and unique quality of whisky isn’t the only thing which is engaging here; he produces a series of hand crafted items from cask clocks, stave signs and Sgian-Dubh’s with immaculate workmanship! Ladies and gentlemen I introduce his side hustle “Scotland’s Cask” another feather in his cap, featuring annually at various Highland games. Honestly just listen with an open mind, treat it as a casual chat between two new friends and enjoy.</p><p>Slainte!</p><p>LIKE - FOLLOW - SHARE</p><br><p>@whiskypilgrims</p><p>whiskypilgrims@gmail.com</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
