The Scottish whisky industry, renowned for its exceptional spirits worldwide, gathered together once again for the annual Scottish Whisky Awards, organised by KD Media. This year it was Glasgow’s turn to host this wonderful event. The glamourous Hilton hotel’s walls witnessed a celebration of the finest whiskies, distilleries, and whisky makers who contribute to the ongoing legacy of Scotland's national drink.
