A fresh company with a family lineage of whisky making heritage, requiring a soundtrack a little less ordinary. Curated by the ninth generation Finn and packaged in a custom 9-sided bottle; the music takes cue written in a more obsure 9/4 time signature. Building the track around a repeating melodic motif helps it become recognisable and the strong build up pauses for the key pre cresendo moment; tasting the whisky. A final cresendo rises as the protagionist reaches the peak of the challenge to the submit.


The sound design provides impact where needed, particually in fast cutting shots; like the complex distilling process sequence.

The voice over was spoken by Finn himself, giving a truely authentic read and personal insight into his vision for taking his past family heritage foward.
