From Stuart Nickerson at Glenglassaugh:

Glenglassaugh this week have appointed an importer for Alberta and BC in Canada, who are Purple Valley Imports.  They are working with Jonathan to make sure that he has all the necessary information to get our products listed in these provinces. As Jonathan also imports into the USA then they will be working with him in the USA too, which is a major breakthrough for them as they have been looking for a USA importer for many months.  It will be a few months before they manage to get all of the appropriate authorisation and get product shipped across but at least the process has started and all of you who live in the USA should start to see Glenglassaugh appearing shortly.

We have recently started filling Octave casks with our new spirit and are selling these for private consumption to either private individuals or groups of friends. The Octaves contain around 50 litres of Spirit and are anticipated to mature quickly with bottling anticipated after around 5 to 7 years. The price per cask is affordable for an individual or as a purchase by a whisky club with the opportunity to personalise the cask by having your own inscription on one end of it and also be personalising the bottles at a future date.

This is the perfect opportunity to buy a cask of whisky which comes from the same distillery that has just won two trophies at the International Wine and Spirit Competition. Our 40 year old won the Trophy for the Best 40 year old Scotch Whisky and our 30 year old won the Trophy for the Best Cask Strength Scotch Whisky.

To find out more about this opportunity then the best starting point is to read my original blog on the subject and the comments at the end of the blog, http://blog.glenglassaugh.com/?p=76 it is also worth reading the two question and answer blogs http://blog.glenglassaugh.com/?p=80 and http://blog.glenglassaugh.com/?p=82
