Grant will be presenting his Campfire on December 16th, all are welcome, the address of the Lighthouse is available on our contact page.

All at ditto would like to thank Jamie Milne for taking the time out of his quite hectic schedule of helping people learn and appreciate more about whisky and Glenfiddich, to present his story and that of Glenfiddich at our last campfire. A brilliant evening that saw us go from rockets to whisky, many a sample was imbibed and we think everyone walked away with a greater understanding of the drink that is, ‘The Water of Life’ and how to always strive for the things you want most.

A great evening was had by all, and we wish Jamie the very best of luck with his relatively new endeavour.  We would also like to send special thanks to all those who mentioned the campfire night on their blog, including: The Whisky Guy, Whisky Critic, Whisky Israel, Whisky Intelligence, The Aspiring Gentleman, Guid Scotch, Whisky Cast, and Assaf at Malt Geeks for his lovely review of the eve and look at the new Glenfiddich 14 years Rich Oak.

The Campfire team caught up with Jamie Milne, brand ambassador for Glenfiddich. Jamie will be presenting our next Campfire on July the 15th where he will not only be talking about his work with the worlds most popular malt whiskey, but also giving us some insight into how he came to being there from a degree in aeronautical engineering and career in IT consultancy.
