Our giant 8kg Easter egg was donated to the Ayrshire Hospice. There's now another chance to win it if you hop over to the Hospice Facebook page for more details.

We are absolutely delighted to announce that we've been awarded 5 stars by Visit Scotland and are the first tourist shop in Ayrshire with this top rating. 

The award was presented to Geraldo's owner, Toni Dawson by Visit Scotland's Regional Director, Gordon Smith and is now proudly in place at the entrance of our shop.

Read on to find out more about the rigorous assessment process that is required to achieve this top rating and see photos of Toni and her team receiving their 5 star award.

It's our biggest Easter Egg ever which was kindly donated to us by Frank Visser, a leading chocolatier from The Netherlands.  We ran a competition for one of our lucky customers to win this fabulous chocolate egg.

Visit Scotland's Regional Director, Gordon Smith, drew the winning ticket on Wednesday 17th January. 

But who was the winner?

With just 3600 bottles available worldwide, we are delighted to confirm that we have been given a very small allocation of the Springbank 21 YO 46%.

Springbank Distillery's latest edition of their 21 YO was matured in 45% Port casks and 55% Rum casks and bottled at 46%.

Best get it quick!
