Summary
We're HUGE fans of Ardnamurchan on the podcast. So it made sense for us to find out the story of how it started. Alex Bruce is the Managing Director of Ardnamurchan and Adelphi. In this episode he talks us through how he started out at Adelphi in 2004 with nothing more than a black book of contacts, a filing cabinet, fax machine and 3 casks. From there he grew Adelphi into a premium highly sought after Independent Bottler and then made the decision it was time to build a distillery. This was a lot of fun and there were some amazing drams he was kind enough to bring in with him.
