Meet our knowledgeable and valued team…
David Gowans, Director :
“There isn’t a better way to share stories with your pals than enjoying a warming dram beside a roaring fire.”
David grew up hearing nostalgic tales about the whisky industry from his father; a character in himself and the inspiration behind the legendary Auld Goonsy! David is an all round whisky enthusiast. Cask planning and sampling the whiskies with business partner Louis are his favourite part of the job. With a love of travel, when he isn’t in Global Whisky HQ, David can be found exploring the world by boat. He’s a fan of a good sherry bomb single malt; our Red Cask Co is right up his street.
Louis Stewart, Director :
“Experimenting and trialing whisky in different wood is amazing; some of the results really blow you away!”
Louis is the true definition of a “peat head”. Our peat enthusiast has been an avid whisky collector for the best part of a decade. His dream smoky dram would have hints of dark chocolate, butterscotch and vanilla. Seeking unique casks, drawing cask samples, and liaising with our international importers, are highlights of Louis’ day-to-day at Global Whisky HQ. When he’s not in search of the perfect dram with the Global Whisky team, Louis can be found spending quality time with his family, or practicing hot yoga in the studio he co-owns in the suburban southside of Glasgow.
Alison Entwistle – Head of Operations :
“No two days are the same; everyday brings new challenges and exciting projects.”
With years of whisky knowledge under her belt, Alison is a vital member of the Global Whisky Ltd team. Organising cask moves, assisting with exports and co-ordinating bottling projects are her favourite parts of the job. On the rare occasion that the sun is shining in Glasgow, Alison enjoys spending time in the garden and when it isn’t, she likes to curl up indoors and indulge in a smooth, full bodied dram with hints of vanilla, butterscotch and caramel.
Lauren Kerr, Business Development Executive :
“I love seeing our customers rave about our whiskies, and hearing how much their customers are enjoying their drams too!”
Lauren is new to the world of whisky and is keen to explore what the industry has in store. Laurens key focus is developing our brands and supporting our customers. A lover of the great outdoors, when Lauren isn’t working, she enjoys spending time with friends, ideally around a fire with a warming dram in her hand. Sweet, smooth sherry matured whiskies with hints of chocolate, raisins and caramel are what you would find in her glass.
Kelsi Gray, Business Support Administrator :
“I’m excited to be taking my first steps into the such an interesting industry with the amazing team Global Whisky.”
Kelsi is just beginning her journey into the whisky industry. Her creative energy and willingness to learn makes her a key asset to the Global Whisky team. Putting together and packaging whisky samples to begin their journey to our customers is one of her favourite aspects of the job. Although she isn’t a whisky drinker, Kelsi is a fan of the warming, smoky scent of a peated whisky.
