As the 24th of may aproaches everyone at the blog is getting excitied about a short trip to london we have planned to talk to WIlliam Grants whisky global ambasador Ludo Ducrocq and the lovely Becky.
This all started off while talking to about whisky on twitter on our whiskytimes twitter page and we got talking to Grants. Now blended whisky isn't normally our bag but becky was convinced she could turn us into blended whisky drinkers and asked if we would like to smaple there more up market whiskies. So naturally being the open minded modern and relativly noobile whisky drinkers we are we agreed.
Thats not where the story ends though, as that would be extravagantly dull. WHat happened next is that Becky offered us the chance to be taken through the whiskies they would send us by the Global Ambasador Ludo via video Skype chat... naturally we were taken aback and very pleased, but we had an even better idea! Wht not meet up in person and make an evening of it?
Becky agreed, we picked a date, and the rest will be history.
Since then we have been inundated with offers and interest from online retailers, importers, bloggers and all kinds of people. So now the london trip is jam packed full of visits to make (sadly there is not enought time for everyone) so watch this space to find out who we met and where.
