On this episode of Scran Rosalind attended an evening of whisky tasting which was hosted by the Gleneagles Townhouse whisky club 'Chasing the Dram'. The event was held to celebrate women in whisky and showcased two impressive guests Annabel Thomas founder and CEO of Nc'Nean Whisky and Laura Rampling, Master Whisky Maker of Glenrothes whisky. Rosalind got to sit down with each of them to find out more about their respective brands and roles as well as tasting and enjoying their introduction to a selection of their whiskies.  Annabel talks about the creation of the brand and the importance of the sustainable ethos the company is built on. She also tells us about the huge effort that went into securing funding to build the distillery including managing to get legendary broadcaster Jeremy Paxman on board. Laura tells Rosalind about her journey into the world of whisky via wine, how Glenrothes is focussing on the premium market and what advice she has for women looking to go into the whisky industry.
