During the Edinburgh Fringe 2011 Whisky Comedian Alan Anderson introduces some of the festival’s finest comedians and entertainers to some of the finest Single Malt Scotch Whiskies.

Today beatboxer extraordinaire Shlomo gets to sample a very rare and exquiste Glenfiddich Eau de Robidou.

A Guinness World Record Holder & World Loopstation Champion, Shlomo has headlined at major festivals across the globe including Glastonbury and he has appeared on BBC 2’s Later with Jools Holland and BBC 1’s Jonathon Ross Show.

Created in small oval casks as part of Glenfiddich’s Artist in Residence project by Stephanie Bourne, sadly the Scotch Whisky Association will not allow this wonderful spirit to be classed as a whisky. The casks were designed to be small and different in shape to help accelerate the maturation process by increasing the wood surface area ratio to the liquid inside the cask.

Six years later it tastes and smells fantastic. It might technically not be a whisky, not to worry... we can still enjoy it. However let’s call it a Man-fume.

Glenfiddich takes it water from the Robbie Dhu spring... hence the name Eau de Robidou.

A former DJ Whisky Comedian Alan Anderson loves breaks, beats and single malts.
