The Whisky Ambassador

Summary

No:1 Release is the first of a series of exceptional whiskies. It is curated by The Whisky Ambassador, who run Scotch whisky training courses operating across 22 countries and six continents. No:1 Release is a limited edition available only to course alumni. The curated collection comes from smaller distilleries whose marvellous whiskies are not well known outside Scotland. The aim is to reveal the abundant variety of scotch whisky, each one determined by local water and landscape. Each whisky is signed, dated and certified by Jo Graham, Managing Director of The Whisky Ambassador as testimony to its quality and there are tasting notes created by independent whisky experts blind tasting the whisky. The pack will be sent to every corner of the globe so it must be sturdy. Only natural materials were used, for example, un-dyed sheep's felt was chosen to hold the bottle firmly in place within a wooden case. Attractive and appealing to the senses, felt has a practical purpose; it is used in industry for its shock absorbing properties. All the packaging materials chosen, such as wool, wood and leather reflect the natural, artisanal nature of the whisky.
