Every detail of a dram
Photographs by J. Dryburgh.
Start in Scotland, then keep going. The app maps distilleries in eight more countries, with festivals, shops and the rules each country's whisky follows.
Original illustrations drawn for Dram by Dram.
The app carries festival calendars for Scotland and around the world, whisky shops from Speyside to Sydney, and a trip planner. A few favourites to get you started:
Days of distillery tours, tastings and ceilidhs across the heart of whisky country.
Islay's festival of music and malt, when each distillery takes a turn to open its doors.
A brand-new village festival in Falkland, Fife, making its debut this year.
Dates are a guide and change each year, so check each festival's own website before you travel. Dram by Dram is independent and not affiliated with any festival, shop or distillery.
Each one opens with a light-hearted ode to its own country's whisky and a page for the owner's name, then fills up with a lifetime of tasting notes.
