John Drummond's Journey from Scottish Blends to Hong Kong’s Luxury Liquid Gold

Gavin Linde is joined by with John Drummond, the General Manager of the Intercontinental Grand Stanford Hong Kong and a true heavyweight in the global whisky scene.

John shares his evolution from sneaking sips of blended whiskies as a teenager in Scotland to curating one of the world’s most elite collections at the hotel’s famed Tiffany’s New York Bar.

They also talk about their unique "shared wealth" whisky culture of Hong Kong, the rise of independent bottlings, and the rare "pinch me" moment of tasting a 78-year-old Glenlivet from Gordon & MacPhail.

We also get an insider’s look at why Hong Kong has become the ultimate bucket-list destination for spirits lovers and what to expect at the upcoming Hong Kong Whisky Festival.
