  • Scotch! The Story of Whisky - Part 1 (Season 1 - Episode 1)

    David Hayman surveys the state of the Scotch whisky industry and examines the threats to its world dominance. He meets coopers and coppersmiths, whose craft it relies on, before visiting Campbeltown to enrol on a distilling course. Hayman is then schooled in the alchemy of blending whisky by Kirsteen Campbell, Famous Grouse master blender, and visits distilling students at Heriot-Watt University.

    David Hayman feels that the Scottish terrain and air are just as important as science in the creation of the drink. He visits Islay, rejoicing in the land and people who make it The Whisky Island. On Speyside, he encounters the progression of whisky from illicit distilling to a landmass dominated by global brands. Scotch whisky’s profile and sales would be lost without marketing – though image does not always meet with reality, as Hayman learns. Finally, at a fine whisky auction, the tale of Scotch’s lucrative investment and collection sub-industry is told.
