Steve Rush - Whisky Drambassador
Regularly described as one of the most influential people in
business, I’m a freelance Spirits Writer (specialising in whisky)
Digital/Social PR/Marketing Specialist, Consultant and Drambassador, who over
the last decade has passionately promoted and preached the world of whisky and
other fine spirits, through my two industry leading websites; the review,
interview, event and innovative content driven 'The Whisky Wire' and the news
driven 'The Whisky Business'.
I also manage the highly renowned @TheWhiskyWire Twitter
account, where I have created, developed and marketed industry leading content,
including my Tweet Tastings, Insta Tastings and Flash Blog events. To date I
have represented and worked with over 100 whisky and other fine spirit brands,
in over 170 events. The account is now the most followed (non-brand/retail
owned) whisky based account in the UK. Over 90% of our events have managed to
trend within the Top 10 of Twitter in the UK on their respective night.
I also work with a number of spirits brands on a freelance
consultancy basis on product development and to advise and manage their
social/digital PR/marketing strategy and content needs.
Over the last ten years I have also hosted numerous
group/corporate tasting events and have written and contributed to articles for
companies including Virgin Atlantic. I also regularly judge industry
competitions, including The Spirits Business Scotch Masters, The Spirit of
Speyside Whisky Festival Awards and the Rebel Yell Bourbon Cocktail
Competition.
