A joy of a film that captures the real essence of whisky in Scotland in all its chaos and fun.

– RACHEL McCORMACK, author, Chasing the Dram

Celebrated spirits writer and educator David Broom takes us along on his quest through Scotland as he seeks to gain a deeper understanding of his national drink. We find that whisky speaks as much to its glorious past as it does to its dynamic present. Through the film’s delightful encounters with whisky makers, musicians (Alasdair Roberts, Rachel Newton, James Yorkston, King Creosote) and writers (Alasdair Gray, Ian Rankin), it offers an enjoyable primer on how the humble dram has succeeded in bringing people together over the years, and thereby come to assume the integral place it occupies in Scottish culture.
