On-Line Shop

At long last the Glenglassaugh Internet Shop is open and ready for business. This is not the end of what has been a prolonged process but only the end of stage 1.

We have a limited quantity of products for sale which includes all of our whiskies as well as a special double 200ml pack of our IWSC trophy winning 30 and 40 year old whiskies, and at a very good discounted price and only available here. We also have our spirit drinks and a very limited range of merchandising. The next stage will be to offer more products including some more limited edition whiskies and expand the range of merchandising including rugby shirts and our book which will be available from April.

We also currently only supply to the UK and Europe but if anyone outside these countries wants to purchase anything then please contact us direct and we will try and satisfy your request.

All Octave owners should also remember that they are entitled to 10% discount on any bottled product that they purchase.

Finally the website is www.glenglassaugh.co.uk

Main Website

Over the next few days we will also be moving our main website to a new server and so on a temporary basis anyone trying to access the main site will end up at the shop. The main site will no longer be accessible and is currently being redesigned with easier navigation, more current information, better links to the blog and the shop and a new forum area where forum members can communicate with each other and us in an easy and open environment. I will keep you informed of progress on this.

This work and indeed the development of the online shop is being carried out by a local web designer, Neil Hedley, who has done a first class job. http://www.hedleyenterprises.co.uk/

Visitor Centre

We also have plans to have a small visitors centre at the distillery and we are currently in the process of awaiting planning approval from the local authority. It is unlikely that we will have the approval and conversion work completed before the end of this summer but we will be aiming to have it opened as soon as possible. As they say in the press – read all about it http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/1623802?UserKey

Peter and Graeme

Many of you passed on your best wishes to Peter and Graeme following the car accident that they had on Tuesday (see my last blog) and I am now pleased to say that they are both out of hospital and recuperating at home. Hopefully Peter will be back at work on Monday but it may be a while longer before we see Graeme back. (To stop any confusion we are speaking about Graeme Morrison and not Graham Eunson, who many of you know)

That is all for now, but as always feel free to comment or email me direct
