Re: Abertillery, South Wales
A display of whiskey related paraphernalia on the tour.
The still - they only have one but it was made in Prestonpans. Alas you only get to see it behind glass.
A plaque giving some details of the distillation process. You will note that the barley wash preparation is not done at the distillery itself but is provided by Brains Brewery from Cardiff.

Re: Abertillery, South Wales
A Whisky barrel signed by HRH The Duke of Rothesay in his capacity as Prince of Wales.
This is one of only three known bottles that survive from the previous distillery in Wales which was located in the North near Lake Bala.
It was at Frongoch and more information about it can be found at http://www.celticmalts.com/journal.a...ierarchy=0|4|9
And a slightly closer look from a different angle.

Re: Abertillery, South Wales
Last Friday the Quaich begged to be taken to Rumney Folk Club so how could I refuse?
The Quaich enjoying the candlelit ambience.
Derek of the Misted Cilt caught making preparations.
The Quaich and the Book trying out one of the performers chairs.

Re: Abertillery, South Wales
Absolutely great set of pics Trefor of the Distillery and what you have captured at last weeks folk club .... You have now sealed your fate as official folk club photographer. Hope you can make some more soon.
It was great to meet up with Quaich and read some of the writings in the book that is travelling with it. With the added addition of Welsh Whiskey .. well ... it was all simply a fab eve with the Quaich ..
Thanks Trefor ..
