Halewood introduces Two Drams blended Scotch whisky

Halewood introduces Two Drams blended Scotch whisky

Craft distiller Halewood Artisanal Spirits has added Two Drams, a blended Scotch whisky that is versatile and well-balanced, to its portfolio of high growth premium spirits.

The term dram has had several evolutions over time. Originally, it stemmed from the term ‘drakhme’, an Ancient Greek word for a coin. Later, during Roman times, the word evolved to describe the weight of a coin.


It’s unclear exactly when, but at some point, the term came to Scotland and was used to measure liquid. With whisky being so prevalent here, it didn’t take long for the ‘wee dram’ phrase to catch on.

This delicious blended Scotch whisky is available in 70cl and 1l formats.

Two Drams joins Aber Falls Welsh Whisky, Bankhall British Whisky, John Crabbie and Bonnington Scottish Whisky in the Halewood portfolio, which also includes Whitley Neill Gin, Dead Man’s Fingers rum and JJ Whitley vodka.

Available at Bargain Booze, Bestway Wholesale, Parfetts and other wholesalers in a £15.99 price marked pack (70cl).
