Whisky and Tartan; The Perfect Partners

31-05-2022

Whisky x Tartan = the perfect Scottish partners and that is why we are delighted to announce our recent partnership with the ‘King of Kilts’ MacGregor and MacDuff kilt and highland wear specialists.

Master kiltmakers MacGregor and MacDuff have been perfecting their trade for over 40years and provide a comprehensive hire range as well as bespoke kilt outfits, which includes world-renowned tartans as well as their contemporary tartan Mist collection. Within the exclusive Mist collection, is a tartan named Islay Mist, hence why the pairing is such a great fit (no pun intended!).

Proudly handcrafted in Scotland, the Islay Mist tartan takes inspiration from the breath-taking landscapes and sunsets from one of the most iconic Hebridean Islands, the Islay of Islay. The tartan was expertly designed to incorporate shades of grey and blue for the ocean as well as deep purples and lifted with a line of rosewater to honour to the island. It is one of the most popular tartans at MacGregor and MacDuff for both hires and sales.

To celebrate this unique partnership, customers who hire or purchase an Islay Mist kilt at any of the three MacGregor and MacDuff stores–Glasgow City Centre, Glasgow West End and Prestwick–will be gifted an Islay Mist miniature in their sporran to celebrate their special day, as well as a 10% discount voucher for nearby spirits specialist store, the Good Spirits Co. to redeem off a bespoke tartan bottling of Islay Mist whisky.

Be sure to check out our display at their stores where you can pick up anything from Islay Mist trews to shawls to hip flasks and scarves! The latter two items are also available to purchase on our online store as well as our limited Islay Mist tartan release.
