7 whiskies, haggis , Wellington | Murray Lloyd Photography
Half a century of haggis history was piped into Wellington College’s Firth Hall to celebrate the final Regional Wines and Spirits whisky tasting of the year. Highly sought after tickets were only made available to regular whisky imbibers at Regionals’ events throughout the year. The Haggis was delivered with pomp and poetry before being served with mash and washed down with seven different whiskies. The recipe for the haggis originated at Tommy Jack’s Miramar butchery in the 1960’s and presently resides with the Island Bay butcher, Don Andrews. The whiskies were 10year old Ardberg, a Longrow Rundlets and a 2001 Kilderkins, a Bunnahabhain, Glendronach 1994, a Highland Park, a Longmore 2002 and a Bowmore aged 12 years.
