A life in whisky.
A love of baking.

Before there was a bakery, there were distillery visits, tasting rooms and conversations over a dram. Beth Havers spent more than 20 years introducing people to whisky, including a decade as Glenfiddich’s National Brand Ambassador in Canada. Her work earned her an Icons of Whisky Ambassador of the Year award.

Alongside that career was a love of baking that began in childhood. In 2020, Beth brought the two together. She started building recipes around the whiskies she knew, finding where their flavours belonged in a cookie. That was the beginning of Aunt Beth’s.

The flavour comes first.

Whisky brings more to a recipe than its name on the box. Its spice, sweetness or smoke can change the way a cookie tastes. Beth chooses each pairing with that in mind: Canadian Club with ginger and brown sugar, The Busker with espresso and chocolate, The Singleton in buttery shortbread.

The pleasure is in tasting how they work together. A familiar flavour gives you a place to start; the whisky gives you something else to discover.

Everyone’s welcome at this tasting.

You don’t have to know your Speyside from your Islay to find a cookie you love. Choose chocolate, coffee, ginger or shortbread. Or pick a gift collection, open the boxes and compare notes with someone whose company you enjoy.

That’s the idea behind Aunt Beth’s: share the flavours Beth knows so well through something as welcoming as a really good cookie.
