Whisky Galore

A recent trip to Scotland by Media Eden's team captain, Jennie, promoted the perfect excuse to arrange a distillery visit on behalf of our clients Arkwrights, generating some video content for the forthcoming new website. The Wiltshire based whisky shop boasts over 800 whiskies in stock but a trip to Oban Distillery unearthed a special Distillery Bottling that is only sold there - what a perfect excuse for a wee dram!

Distillery owners Diageo couldn't have been more accommodating and big thanks to the delighteful Frances who expressed terror at the thought of being filmed and then proved to be a pro! The Sensory & Flavour tour is illuminating and the delightful little distillery is obviously run by people with passion about their brand, much like Ken & Fran at Arkwrights themselves.

It didn't take much persuasion to try the 14 year old single malt and the distillers choice - then a nibble on crystallised ginger brought a whole new flavour to the whisky. With distinctive notes of honey, smoke orange and sea salt, it proved the perfect panacea to a rather damp day in Oban.

Had we known we'd then have to take a 60 mile detour because 'the bridge was doon' then we may have come away with more than 3 bottles.....

New Year Resolutions
Its never too early to make that list! We all know the usual ones, eat less, drink less, visit the in laws with a happy heart – but perhaps we need to think of resolutions we can really enjoy and embrace? I’m going to start a list: open the door...
A Time for Sharing
It might be nearly Christmas and snowing lightly outside but I wanted to share with you how much fun it has been to have a wide range of clients and get to know them over the past nine months. Take one restaurant client for example. Although I had been to...
Dear Santa – please can I have a little printer !
Its the most old fashioned way of displaying news – but next year the “little printer” – will be our new best friend in the office. Particularly appealing to all of us here at ME Towers – as you can set the new tiny team member to scour the web,...
Fight you for a pedal car?
“Christmas is a coming” – though I think we all knew that! In America it was Black Friday recently and I watched with a mixture of horror tinged with amusement as otherwise sensible, god fearing folk, lost all inhibitions and launched, in some case’s, literally, themselves into the delights of shopping...
First Step on the Ladder
Well what an exciting week – and no I’m not talking about the Tory Party Conference, though I am going to steal/borrow words from ‘Dave’ that we must all ‘work together to make a better brighter future’ – now thats exactly what I am going to do – thanks Dave –...
