Welcome to Dramfool a new perspective in Scotch Whisky.
We have been independently bottling cask strength, un-chill filtered whisky since 2015. The reputation that we have gained around the world for our bottlings gives us great and continued pleasure. With this in mind the mantra from day one to ‘only bottle whiskies that I like’ is key. More so now than ever.
Bruce Farquhar
Founder
Founding Dramfool in 2015 Bruce has been successfully bottling single cask whisky ever since. His passion for good whisky has taken him all over Europe and as far as Japan hosting tastings and spreading the word of Dramfool. His mantra that ‘I only bottle whisky that I like’ does not waver. He won’t offer a bottling for sale unless he feels it meets his standards. This has led to consistently high reviews from connoisseur drinkers and industry specialists alike.
Colin Fraser
United Kingdom
Growing up in the shadow of many of the great Speyside distilleries it can be said that Colin was surrounded by whisky from a very early age. From being a collector to appreciating the subtleties of difference in single cask whisky it has been a journey of adventure. His frustrations at the access to quality casks for private buyers has led to the creation of Dramfool Casks. Having learned there is no bad spirit out there but there are bad casks the adventure in flavour continues.
Brand Ambassadors
All our Brand Ambassadors come to work with us from many and varied places, but all come with a love of high-quality cask strength whiskies and an understanding of what makes these so special. With expanded tastings and exclusive offerings for their home markets planned in the near future we are sure they will be promoting quality whisky under the Dramfool family for a long time.
Danny Wen
Asia
In what is possibly the largest growing market for whisky in the world Danny aims to bring a new dimension to what is on offer. While many large brands are well represented the smaller distilleries, independent bottlers and indeed some regions of Scotland appear often overlooked. Education to the new generation of connoisseur will surely open the door wider on the subtleties of Scotch whisky.
Running tastings and creating Friends with Drams to not only educate but impart his undeniable knowledge.
Robert Buchner
