Publisher’s Letter

The festive season returns!

It’s certainly been an emotional time for us all over the past few months as we see the food, drink and hospitality industries begin to flourish once again. As we head into the festive season we encourage readers to seek out Scottish produce and ingredients when doing their festive shopping and supporting our hospitality industry.

We welcome Stephanie Abbot, Jonathan Mack, and Annabel Mackie to our team along with renowned whisky writer, Gavin Smith and one of Scotland’s most respected food and drink writers, Cate Devine. Also joining us as a new regular columnist is Gary Maclean, National Chef of Scotland and the MasterChef: The Professionals Champion 2016. Our team is certainly developing in the right direction and this will help us shape a publication that Scotland can be extremely proud of.

Don’t forget to check out the new competition page, our new Distillery Spotlight and an exclusive interview with Chef Gordon Ramsay who returns to Scotland to open Bread Street Kitchen & Bar in Edinburgh.
