We are proud that a recent collaboration agreement was signed by the City Council of Segovia, through Turismo de Segovia and Espirituosos España, to promote moderation and responsibility in alcohol consumption as part of the development of tourism activities in the city.

We are proud to announce our partnership today with RSPB Scotland, working together with Diageo and The Glenmorangie Company, to restore peatland on Islay at The Oa, a vital and iconic habitat in Scotland. Through this historic initiative, we will collectively contribute £1.6 million to restore approximately 1,000 hectares of peatland in an internationally important habitat that stores an estimated ten times as much carbon as the entirety of the UK’s forest.    Crossing industries and sectors, this collaboration celebrates the cultural roots that link Scotland's nature, people and whisky, while working towards making the peatland more resistant to flooding, improving resilience against wildfires and providing improved habitat for many species.    Read more: https://lnkd.in/eRtdur8u Photo credit: David Dinsley

At Maker's Mark, the brand’s perfectly unreasonable commitment to flavor is deeply connected to its stewardship of nature. Today's feature story in The Washington Post spotlighted the growing movement of bakeries, breweries and distilleries like Maker's Mark using grains cultivated with traditional farming practices in search of better-quality bread, beer and bourbon. Our Maker's Mark Managing Director Rob Samuels and Master Distiller J. Blake Layfield, Ph.D. spoke about how Maker's Mark's commitment to regenerative agriculture not only produces healthier soil but also unlocks richer flavor profiles for bourbon like our new Star Hill Farm Whisky. Maker's Mark is the first distillery in the world to receive Regenified Certification, which verifies that Star Hill Farm, the homeplace of the distillery, and its partner farms are committed to regenerative agriculture, which includes practices that restore and revitalize the soil.
