Benromach Pipes In The Sound Of Music!

European Pipe Band Championships Set for Forres

The beautiful market town of Forres is set to host the Benromach European Pipe Band Championships for three consecutive years, bringing a projected £1.2 million of economic benefits to the town and the surrounding area.

The event which will run on a date yet to be confirmed during summer of 2013, 2014 and 2015 will attract over 100 pipe bands from throughout Europe to the town along with thousands of spectators and visitors.

The venue for the Benromach European Pipe Band Championships will be the Grant Park in Forres – a natural amphitheatre, located in the centre of the town.

Chairman of Forres Events Ltd, Ian Widdowson, said, “We are absolutely thrilled to be bringing these Championships to Forres. As well as the obvious economic benefits for the area, this world class event will allow us showcase our beautiful town and enable locals and visitors alike to enjoy the very best in
traditional pipe band music.”

The announcement comes at the end of a three year project led by Gordon & MacPhail whose Benromach Speyside Single Malt Whisky will be title sponsor of the Championships.
David Urquhart, Joint Managing Director at Gordon & MacPhail, proprietors of Benromach Distillery explains, “Since Gordon & MacPhail purchased Benromach Distillery in 1993 we have always been keen to consider ways of supporting the local community. These Championships provide a fantastic opportunity not only for Benromach but for local people and businesses alike.”

Forres was selected to host the European Pipe Band Championships by the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association (RSPBA). The decision was made at the RSPBA AGM in Glasgow on 10 March 2012.
RSPBA Chief Executive, Ian Embelton, said, “The RSPBA was very impressed with the Forres Bid to host the European Pipe Band Championships in 2013, 2014, 2015. They put together a professional presentation and made a compelling case for the event to come to the north of Scotland. The RSBPA remit is to promote and celebrate traditional pipe band music. Forres is in for a treat as some of the best pipe bands in Europe will descend on Forres over the next three years.”

Ardbeg Uigeadail

Ardbeg Uigeadail
Country: Scotland   Region: Islay
Age:    Strength: 54.2%
Summary: Lauched in 2004 this has become a well deserved legend of an Ardbeg. Conceived as a mix of older sherried Ardbeg and younger bourbon matured stock it has been innevitably prone to batch variation. With older bottlings being more gingery salty and oily. These recent batches are arguably better however with a much heavier sherry slant and some phenomenal thick dark fruits with bags of coastal/peat qualities.

Old Pulteney 21 Year Old

Old Pulteney 21 Year Old
Country: Scotland   Region: Highland
Age: 21 Year Old   Strength: 46%
Summary: Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky For some reason this 21yo is often overlooked. I have no idea why it is one of these wonderful coastal drams that seems to display a perfect balance between vigorous salty notes big doses of honey little flecks of green fruits and some gentle peaty aspects to boot. One of the best Pulteneys ever and brilliant value compared to most of these ridiculous and overpriced official aged drams these days. A real winner.

St. Magdalene 1979 | 19 Year Old | Rare Malts

St. Magdalene 1979 | 19 Year Old | Rare Malts
Country: Scotland   Region: Lowland
Age: 19 Year Old   Strength: 63.80%
Vintage: 1979   Bottler: Distillery Bottling
Summary: Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Do I really need to tell you about this one. Its garnered some well deserved infamy over the years for tasting like a petrol and riesling smoothie. A real once in a lifetime dram that demands to be tasted rather than talked about.

Glen Garioch 1958 / 46 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

70cl / 43% / Distillery Bottling – Glen Garioch is a distillery with a comparatively low profile, and quality has varied over its lifetime under a succession of different owners – but real aficionados will tell you that the older expressions are some of the best malts in Scotland. This is a whisky with fruit and floral notes, but also, crucially, some restrained peat..
