Dave Allardice
A fellow Scot, Dave brings 15 years of whisky industry expertise, including over a decade as a Glenfiddich Ambassador across the U.S., delivering elevated experiences for high-profile clients and exclusive events.
With deep industry ties, he unlocks behind-the-scenes access few will ever experience—private warehouse tastings with legendary distillers, after-hours drams at iconic whisky houses, and rare bottles sourced from the most exclusive collections.

Having lived across multiple countries and sipped drams in every corner of the world, he knows exactly where to find the best whisky spots, the perfect pint, and the kind of distillery experiences that don’t make the brochures.
