Tayport Distillery is thrilled to announce its upcoming feature on the "James Martin Saturday Morning" show, where the renowned chef utilised the distillery's Blackcurrant Liqueur in a Blackcurrant and Blackberry Delice. The segment will air on Saturday 13th January, to a national audience, highlighting the quality and versatility of Tayport's Scottish-produced spirits.


The show, known for its focus on culinary excellence and innovative recipes, provided the perfect platform to showcase the Blackcurrant Liqueur. Guest chef Lesley Waters and James Martin praised the liqueur's rich flavour profile, which complemented the dessert's taste and presentation.


This opportunity stemmed from a chance meeting between Tayport Distillery's founder, Kecia McDougall, and James Martin at The Taste of Grampian, an event celebrating Scottish food on the East Coast of Scotland. Seizing the moment, Kecia approached James with her products. Impressed, his team contacted the distillery months later, culminating in this feature.

The episode also enjoyed the presence of esteemed guests Jonathan Phang, Greg Rutherford, and others, who together with James and Lesley, created a memorable and flavourful experience.


Tayport Distillery extends its gratitude to James Martin and his team for this opportunity to showcase their Blackcurrant Liqueur to a wider audience. The distillery remains committed to producing premium, locally-sourced Scottish spirits and looks forward to inspiring more culinary creations nationwide.
