Penderyn - ‘Grandmaster’ Award


Poundland’s 5p bags make priceless difference for cancer research in Wales


PENDERYN DISTILLERY has been awarded World Whisky Grand Master 2017, which is a truly signifi cant achievement. Only four of these awards are handed out by The Spirits Business each year, and this is the fi rst time they have been awarded top prize. The trophy was collected by Penderyn’s Sales Manager, Rob Weller at an awards lunch in London recently. Rob said, ‘It was a great event and to pick up this award with the whole whisky industry looking on was a great honour for Penderyn, and also a little nerve-wracking for me!’ The Spirit Masters series has fast become one of the most respected and high profi le trade competitions in the industry, attracting vast amounts of entries from leading brands all over the world. Penderyn were awarded the title for the very high standards of the following award-winning Single Malt Welsh Whiskies - Legend, Celt, Myth, Madeira, Sherrywood, Rich Oak, Portwood and their Rich Oak Single Cask. The Judges were chaired by Amy Hopkins (Deputy Editor, The Spirits Business) and Melita Kiely (Senior Staff Writer, The Spirits Business) and featured writers and judges from across the industry.

researchers


are on track to make a life-saving medical breakthrough, thanks in part to a generous donation from a much- loved high street chain. Value general merchandise retailer Poundland has donated an incredible £161,000 to Cancer Research Wales which is being used to support their study into bowel cancer, the second leading cause of cancer death in Wales. The donation is made up of the money raised via the 5p carrier bag charge in its stores across Wales, and will


go towards the ground- breaking research being conducted by Professor Dean Harris and his team in Swansea University. This exciting three-year project will trial a newly developed diagnostic blood test that has the potential


to accurately


detect bowel cancers at a very early stage, possibly before symptoms occur. In Wales, over 900 lives are lost every year to bowel cancer and late diagnosis is thought to be a signifi cant factor behind these


poor


survival rates, as over half of bowel cancers are fi rst detected when at an advanced stage, making
