DUFFTOWN 14 YEAR OLD MANAGER'S DRAM 2014 SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Bottled: 11/2014Bottle Number: 072256.2% ABV / 70cl One of the best-known single malt whisky brands in the world, Singleton, is not actually a distillery, but rather three distilleries: Glen Ord, Glendullan and Dufftown. Originally, each one catered to a specific global market based on its flavour profile, but these days they can each be found further afield. With spirit stills that are larger than its wash stills, Dufftown used to produce a heavier spirit described as “nutty and spicy”. However, more recently it has lengthened its fermentation time for a lighter, grassier flavour that better suits (parent company) Diageo’s blending requirements.

Hetherington' in ink, some of the maps have place names marked in red ink on the covers, research shows these correspond to WW1 Royal Flying Corps Aerodromes,and sheet 10 has the initials 'T' or 'H.D.' next to the names, the initials stand for 'Training' and 'Home Defence', these maps also have the area of the aerodromes marked and shaded in red, to the side of the maps is stored a 'Contour' book of England by Gall and Inglis, this also has a Sifton, Praed & Co label inside, the case size is 40.5 cm x 11.5 cm x 20 cm, born in London on 19th June 1886 Thomas Gerard Hetherington was commissioned into the 18th Hussars on 29th January 1908, he obtained his Aviators Certificate at Brooklands in a Farman Biplane on 18th July 1911 and transferred to No.1 Company, Air Battalion, Royal Engineers, operating Airships, this later became No.1 Squadron Royal Flying Corps in May 1912, in July 1914 Hetherington was seconded to the Royal Naval Air Service as an Airship Instructor (shown on records as 'Employed under Admiralty') and after the outbreak of war was attached to No3 Wing RNAS at Dunkirk under Commander C.R. Samson who scratch built a unit of Armoured Cars to take on the Germans in Belgium, Hetherington was later given command of a section of purpose built armoured cars from the Admiralty, in December 1914 Hetherington moved to Wormwood Scrubs Naval Air Station as Transport Officer to the Armoured Car Division formed there and it was here, with others, that he began working on the ideas, some initially quite Heath Robinson, that resulted in the development of the Landship Committee and the first prototype tanks, in January 1916 he was given command of a detachment from No.20 Squadron, Royal Navy Armoured Car Division which provided the crew for 'Mother', the prototype of the Mark 1 Tank when it was demonstrated to senior officers at Hatfield Park, in January 1918 he was awarded the C.B.E. 'for service's in connection with the origination of the Tanks' (Gazetted 7.1.1918), he later transferred to the Royal Air Force serving as the Air Attache to Washington 1926-1930, and Rome in 1931, before retiring with the rank of Group Captain in 1935, Hetherington passed away on 14th October 1951 in London, interestingly, he is shown on his Royal Navy record as being on 'Survey Duties, Lighter than Air' on 10.4.16 and it is possible the maps were used while engaged on these duties.
