I don't bottle many casks. Only the ones I truly believe in.

Where the name comes from

The name comes from a photograph: a young Barry on the malt floor, turning the barley with a wooden shovel, the grain caught in a spiral in the air.

Former Distillery Manager at Laphroaig and now 282 Master Distiller, he still chooses every cask himself.
