Girvan, Scotland – William Grant & Sons, the global premium spirits company, recently welcomed Rocco, the official detection dog, to join Grant’s family.
Cocker Spaniel Rocco’s job is to sniff out the barrels from which wooden barrels are made by skilled craftsmen who use traditional techniques to prepare barrels that help protect and perfect the spirit.
As part of the quality control process, Rocco has joined the Scottish distillery artisan team as a great companion because he can “nose” so many barrels in a short period of time.
