What better place to see this film but in the capital of the Highlands - Inverness.

It's a very well structured film both informative and entertaining. It is a good balance between the processes that bring whisky together, along with the people and the landscape.

It is beautifully filmed and holds the viewer's interest, despite being one of the longer documentary type films I've seen on the subject, approx. 90 minutes.

My enjoyment was further enhanced by a Q&A with the director, Andrew Peat, following the screening.

A very interesting, informative and enjoyable movie about Scotland and Scotch whisky.
