I was trawling through twitter the other day and came across an image that made me go WOW.
Sometimes the big end of town really nails it, I think this is one of those occasions:
"Our coppersmiths have embraced 'up-cycling' & transformed a mash tun into a stunning whisky tasting bar at the Blair Athol visitor centre."
and then there was this Bushmills Guitar:
Lowden Guitars and Bushmills® Irish Whiskey - the oldest licensed distillery in Ireland - have collaborated to create a new limited edition guitar made from Bushmills® Irish whiskey barrels, ancient bog oak, and reclaimed sinker redwood.
Now, back to work, or back to looking for it...
