World biggest whisky bottle
THE world's biggest bottle of whisky will be unveiled today - and turned miniature.
Dru McPherson and Mike Drury made the monster malt to put the village of Tomintoul, Banffshire, on the map.
The giant 1½metre bottle holds 105.3 litres of 14-year-old Tomintoul single malt.
A German glassmaker created the 7mm thick pyrex bottle, and a massive cork was specially made to fit.
Dru will display it in his Clockhouse Restaurant, while whisky shop boss Mike will sell normal-size replicas.
Dru, 47, said: "They will look like miniatures by comparison." He added: "The hardest part was watching the giant cork hammered in - we were dreading the noise of smashing glass."
Local MP Angus Robertson will unveil the record-breaker in the village today
