SUNDAY DRIVE: THE DRAMROVER

2012 LAND ROVER DEFENDER 90

OWNED BY WHISKY GALORE 

AS TOLD TO: Joshua Brosnahan 

 The DramRover is our on-road mascot. Classic, rugged, and powerful, it personifies the story of Scotch whisky perfectly. Land Rover stopped production of this very old design back in 2016, and so this model is now a bit of an icon in the motoring world. So much so that when you’re on the road and you see a fellow Land Rover, it is customary to give a wee flash of the lights or a subtle wave from the top of the steering wheel. The sense of community when driving the DramRover is something we hold very dear. There is something rather special about parking up to make a dram delivery and having folk stop to reminisce with you about when they had a similar beast back in the day. We’re essentially driving around a piece of history. When off duty, the DramRover spends a lot of time in the Canterbury high country on hunting and fishing expeditions. Needless to say, The DramRover has been a wonderful addition to our wee Whisky Galore family; give her a wave next time you see her making the rounds!
