So it felt like an honor to be able to work with this company and with this team.
You mentioned growing up around scotch whisky in Scotland, but whats your first memory of drinking scotch yourself?
Also just being Scottish, its the definitive single malt scotch of our country.
Tyrell Hampton
Aside from special occasions, where and how do you like to drink scotch?
I mean, my uncles always got a bottle when we go over on Boxing Day.
But it doesnt have to be that, and it isnt just that.
I mean, I personally like to drink it in a cocktail.
Is it true that all Scottish people grow up owning some sort of tartan item?
Would you wear a tartan kilt outside of Scottish events?
Its not an everyday thing, but I really think we should bring that back.
Its really exciting to see my culture being integrated into other cultures and into the fashion world.
It makes me very proud.
Okay, lets settle this once and for all: what do you wear under a kilt?
Well, you could wear whatever you want under a kilt.
If youre a true Scotsman, it gets a bit breezy, for sure.
My favorite is Paulo Nutini.
Have you heard of him?
I absolutely love him.
And theres a new guy called Gerry Cinnamon and his music has like a lightness to it.
I grew up listening to a Scottish band called Travis.
Did you listen to Travis?
I grew up with Travis as well.
My dad used to love them, so I used to listen to them all the time.
Oh, thats so crazy.
And they were super good.
Then theres the band Biffy Clyro, and obviously Lewis Capaldi is amazing.
What are your actual plans for the holidays?
So I go back to Scotland every year and its all family.
Theres only the five of us, but my parents make it really special.
Its really, really special.
Whos responsible for the turkey this year?
We dont actually do the turkey.
And I think were having steaks this year.
And then my mom will do the dessert.
And youll bring the drinks.
Im bringing The Glenlivet for sure.
