Scotland’s premium single malt whisky liqueur, Bruadar has partnered with a trio of leading Scottish bars to mark World Bee Day tomorrow (May 20th) with signature serves made with honey harvested from Aberargie distillery.
Throughout the month of May, Kelvingrove Café in Glasgow, Montpeliers and The Voyage of Buck in Edinburgh will serve up bespoke cocktails featuring honey harvested from the hives at Aberargie Distillery, where Bruadar is made.
The limited edition serves include a fiery ‘The Hot Honey’ at Kelvingrove Café, a refreshing ‘Pineapple Swizzle’ at The Voyage of Buck and a smoky-sweet crowd-pleaser ‘Bee-yond the Smoke’ at Montpelier’s.
This month-long celebration not only champions Scottish craft spirits but also raises awareness of local bee ecosystems and the importance of pollinators in sustainable production. This new initiative puts a spotlight on the bees behind the honey that flavours every bottle of Bruadar.
Located just outside Perth, Aberargie Distillery is home to Bruadar and the source of the rich honey used in the liqueur. Surrounded by fields of wildflowers and cared for by Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers, the site is a haven for bees with 12 resident hives.
Lauren Doherty of Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers, the makers of Bruadar, said: “We’re incredibly proud of our bees and the role they play in the production of Bruadar.
“This collaboration is a brilliant way to share our story while highlighting the essential work of pollinators not just for whisky, but for biodiversity as a whole.”
