David returns for his sixth DramFest, all the way from Campbeltown to share the history behind the whiskies made at Glengyle Distillery. David has been working with these whiskies extensively over the last 9 years or so, now heading up as their Director of Sales and Marketing. We are delighted to have his depth of knowledge and experience at DramFest once again along with, no doubt, a few good yarns from Kintyre.

Jenna McIntosh - Export Sales Manager Wm. Cadenheads
