Fellow whisky enthusiasts,

We now have the Maltstock 2011 program online! So please visit the Maltstock website to see the full program.

We’re very happy Stuart Thomson (former Ardbeg manager) and George Cairns from the Edinburgh Liqueur Company will join us again. Donald MacLellan will be there for Glendronach and David Stirk with some great whiskies from his Creative Whisky Company. We have Antony McCallum-Caron from Glengoyne/Chieftains. And of course the great chaps from Master of Malt will be there again. This time they will host a “lost distilleries” tasting! Last year Compass Box provided a unique Breakfast Whisky. This year Gregg Glass from Compass Box will come to Maltstock! All this and more to look forward to!

Food
To get off to the perfect start, the highly praised Highlander Inn will come all the way from Craigellachie, Scotland to Maltstock again, to prepare a perfect Scottish breakfast for us. 
On Saturday evening we will of course have a BBQ. It will be a bit different though this year. It’s in the very capable hands of Harry Havinga and his team. They are currently ranked 5th in the World BBQ ranking (yes apparently such a ranking does exist). It will be a BBQ to remember!
