We take pride in being founding members of the English Whisky Guild (EWG). Earlier this year, we proudly hosted the inaugural meeting of the Guild’s Founding Associate Members at our Global Technical Centre in Burton-upon-Trent.

We are excited to share the EWG’s Annual Review, which features Briggs of Burton and McMillan Coppersmiths and Fabricators on Page 23, which you can read here.
