Today (11 April), Clyde Cruising Club unveils Bowmore, Islay’s first Single Malt distillery, as the newest sponsor to sign up to support the Brewin Dolphin Scottish Series.

The prestigious Single Malt whisky is a welcome addition to the Brewin Dolphin Scottish Series and complements the true essence and values of the renowned sailing event. This year’s Brewin Dolphin Scottish Series promises a real festival of sailing which is due to take place during the Queen’s Jubilee weekend from Friday 1 June to Monday 4 June in Tarbert, Loch Fyne, on Scotland’s stunning West Coast

Competitors and spectators will be able to exclusively sample key bottlings from Bowmore through prize giving and at an exclusive tasting session on Saturday 2 June in the fantastic new marquee complex on the north shore of Tarbert. The complimentary tasting hosted by Bowmore Brand Ambassador, and keen sailor, Gordon Dundas will transport sailors and visitors to the magical island of Islay while exploring the Bowmore taste.

David Wilson, Sales and Marketing Director at Bowmore, commenting on their sponsorship, said “We believe the perfect reward following a day at sea is a dram of Single Malt so we are absolutely delighted to support this key event within the sailing calendar.”

John Watson, Commodore of Clyde Cruising Club, organiser of the Scottish Series, said ‘We are absolutely delighted that Bowmore is on board for this year’s Brewin Dolphin Scottish Series as the brand complements and encapsulates the essence of the sailing event.

“We would like to thank Bowmore for its generosity to help make this year’s event the best ever.”
