Scottish Liqueur Centre at the Blair Horse Trials


This week at the Scottish Liqueur Centre, final preparations are being made for the Blair Castle International Horse Trials and Bruadar Country Fair on 21st to 24th August 2008. This year the event celebrates its 20th year at Blair Castle, and has grown from a small one day horse trials to one of the major three day events in Britain.

The country fair which runs along side the horse trials, has over 200 trade stands selling equestrian accessories, country clothing and local food and drink. As sponsors of the fair, the Scottish Liqueur Centre will have a 10 metre trade stand, where guests are welcome to come and sample any of our liqueurs or single malt whiskies.

We at the Scottish Liqueur Centre are proud to sponsor the Bruadar Country Fair.
Bruadar, of course, is ideally suited to the outdoor life, being Scotland’s alternative to sloe gin. Manufactured from single malt Scotch whisky, honey and sloes it is perfect for any hip flask.

The Whisky Trail starts here at the Scottish Liqueur Centre

At this time of year Perthshire is bustling with visitors, eager to follow the infamous 'Whisky Trail' of Scotland. Travel North of Perth on the A9 and it won't be long till you start spotting the Whisky Trail signs; after all, you are entering whisky country. The Highlands of Scotland are awash with whisky distilleries, and it seems the further north you go, the more frequent the distilleries become.

Being confronted with so much choice, wouldn't it be helpful to have a map of the finest and most esteemed distilleries? Here at the Scottish Liqueur Centre we have for sale the Malt Map of Scotland. At only £4.95 this map will not only be your guide between the great distilleries of Scotland, it will also be the perfect souvenier for you to remember your trip by.


The map gives the location of over 50 famous distilleries such as Macallan, Tullibardine and Glen Grant.

Being at the gateway to the Highlands, the Scottish Liqueur Centre is the perfect place to start your Whisky Trail adventure. The Malt Map of Scotland is available from our Visitor Centre, here in Bankfoot, Perthshire.

Whisky - The Wealth of a Nation

Whisky is our national drink. In the case of Scotland it is literally “The Wealth of a Nation”.

We at the Scottish Liqueur Centre are pleased, therefore, to be able to offer you some of the best. These are whiskies which we have sourced and bottled ourselves and we can therefore vouch for the quality! These are not the everyday, sterile, crystal-clear whiskies which you might buy anywhere. All of our malt whiskies are bottled without the chill-filtering process which removes the natural proteins and oils so essential to the taste and texture of the finished product. Each cask of Single Malt Scotch Whisky we purchase is unlike any other - this means that you will not be able to buy whiskies like ours anywhere else- they are unique.

The Carn Mor Cask range is our own collection of whiskies. We bottle without chill-filtering, therefore retaining all the oils and proteins that are so essential to flavour.
