ARDGOWAN Distillery's tipple has made it all the way to Miami beach as a new export market is toasted.

Distillery bosses took part in a Chamber of Commerce trade mission to the USA, visiting Miami and New York.

They said: "This was a fantastic opportunity to spread the word about our award-winning whisky and exciting plans for the distillery far and wide across the pond.

"Our first shipment for the US market is due to hit shores very shortly."
