Vladimir McTavish
Thoroughly entertaining crawl through the national beverage
This article is from 2010.
Given the liberal passing round of sample nips of the water of life, McTavish’s show is not, as suggested in its title of Whisky: An Idiot’s Guide, a sobering examination of Scotland’s top export. It is, however, a thoroughly entertaining crawl through the national beverage, merrily peppered with interesting facts and figures and in no way watered-down by several humorous asides to the role it has played in the Caledonian psyche.
The Stand III & IV, 558 7272, until 29 Aug (not 23), 6.50pm, £9 (£8).
