Loch Ness is about to have it's first Whisky Festival ! ( see http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/1727158/?UserKey= ) What a great idea and I'm surprised it has not happened before now. Whisky is after all one of Scotland's most iconic products known and drunk the world over. Within Scotland it is, I think, a product more associated with the Highlands than anywhere else, so good on Fiddler's Restaurant at Drumnadrochit for organising the festival.
Over the years here at Evergreen I have spent a number of evenings downing whisky ( on one occasion very very expensive whisky!!) with guests. In particular, I will never forget, probably because they were amongst our first guests to Evergreen, spending a very convivial time with four Americans drinking 10 year old Macallan. I seem also to remember that serving breakfast the following morning was shall we say 'challenging' due to a 'slight headache'.....
