Briggs attends ‘The China Whisky Outlook’ in Edinburgh

This week, Scott Davies, James Chadwick, and Andrew Mieleniewski attended ‘The China Whisky Outlook’ in partnership with the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA), China-Britain Business Council, and Barley Magazine.

The team event was hosted at The Scotch Whisky Association in Edinburgh, not too far away from McMillan Coppersmiths and Fabricators

There were many interesting stories, anecdotes, and insights from the panels. It was interesting to hear some of the speakers comment on several major distillery projects in China, and for the team to highlight BRIGGS’ involvement in them.
We look forward to further discussions and opportunities with the SWA. Thanks for your hospitality and drams/whisky highballs.

Ganbei!
