Dràm Mòr is an independent spirits bottler established in 2019 by husband and wife team Kenny and Viktorija Macdonald. The company started as an export agency for Scottish brands, but as demand for independent, high-quality spirits increased, we decided it was time to venture into the world of independent bottling. We provide bespoke single cask spirits to 14 countries worldwide and were delighted to grow the business portfolio to include a range of spirits along with carefully selected whiskies. Today, our products can be found in specialty spirits retailers, Michelin Star restaurants, and bespoke wine and gourmet outlets worldwide. Viktorija and Kenny both have backgrounds working for Whisky companies and are the co-founders of the Mòr Whisky Club held at Oran Mòr, Glasgow.
At Dràm Mòr we not only have a knack for finding the right spirit, but we also pride ourselves on our cask selection. We will taste our spirits and find the cask that best reflects the potential of that spirit, as we source sherry casks along with ports, dessert wines, red wines, rum, cognac and the finest ex-bourbon.
We believe we are unique at Dràm Mòr because we hold no preconceptions about aged spirits. We know some will extoll the virtues of Scotch whisky, others are rabid about rum, Armagnac is the finest spirit in the world, as is Cognac as is bourbon and everyone is correct. We firmly believe that anything that comes out of a cask can be truly unique, utterly delightful and, most importantly, interesting. With this open mindset, we source and bottle the unique, the wonderful and the fascinating day in and day out.
About the man... Having whisky at heart stemming from his Grandfather Alex Macdonald who for many years served as head foreman in Hiram Walker’s Dumbarton Distillery, Kenny has spent the last decade representing some of Scotland’s most iconic independent distillers at whisky festivals throughout Europe and beyond.
Today Kenny brings a massive wealth of experience to his own brand putting the name of Dràm Mòr to the forefront of whisky enthusiast’s minds with the perfect blend of education and entertainment as he weaves an incredible knack for storytelling with an undying passion for our national drink.
