For nearly 20 years, David Stirk has been talking, writing, travelling, making, selling, bottling and drinking all things whisky.

David started his whisky career writing for Whisky Magazine and running global sales for indie bottler Wm Cadenhead. But in 2005, David set out on his own and founded the Creative Whisky Company. For 13 years he bottled an award-winning range of whiskies, as well as a some gin, and helped build the new wave of indie bottlers in Scotland.

If you ask him really nicely, he might even sign a copy of his book about Campbeltown for you.
