Katy Macanna, brand manager for Glengoyne, said: We are delighted to be holding our first event at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe this summer with Unhurried – Glengoynes Inefficient Tradition, which is a light-hearted look into Glengoynes astonishing stories and ways of whisky making. At Glengoyne, we proudly run the slowest stills in Scotland, and were looking forward to explaining why.

Carina Contini, owner of Cannonball Restaurant & Bar, said: There are few places more exciting than Edinburgh during the Fringe, and Cannonball is the closest restaurant to Edinburgh Castle, so were right in the heart of the action.

Were looking forward to welcoming whisky fans from Edinburgh and around the world to join us for an afternoon of fun, fantastic food, and fabulous Glengoyne whisky.

Unhurried – Glengoynes Inefficient Tradition will be hosted in The Glengoyne Room within Cannonball Restaurant & Bar.
