Scotland is the home of comfort food. We even have a word for it. It’s chitterin. This is where you’ll find all the latest menu items here at The Haven. As soon as Terri and Jason dream it up, we’ll let you know about it. Then, you can come here and give it a try!

Below is a growing list of items on our menu, be sure to click on the headings for the full story.

Whisky Wednesday – Edradour

World renowned as the smallest traditional distillery in Scotland and arguably the most unique. Dating back to 1825, Edradour, stands alone as the last stronghold of handmade single malt whisky from a farm distillery still in production today.
Hidden in the very heart of Perthshire, this picturesque ‘little Model Village’ of Edradour is steeped in a history of intrigue to inspire the imagination. And, with matchless commitment to retaining authentic small scale production, Edradour uniquely boasts over 25 distinctive expressions of Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky with their wonderful characters and flavours.

Whisky Wednesday – Glenkinchie

Glenkinchie is just fifteen miles from the capital, earning it the title “The Edinburgh Malt”. It’s strange to think of the city when you see fields of barley or the green Lammermuir Hills rolling north towards the Firth of Forth. Stranger still when you taste the subtle, floral flavour of this rare Lowland survivor.

Glenkinchie whisky is perfect as an apéritif or at the start of a meal due to its fragrant, light body. Distilled in Scotland’s largest stills and matured for at least 12 years, the result is a floral whisky with a fresh, creamy taste.
The Glenkinchie 12 Year Old was named Best Lowland Single Malt at the 2013 World Whiskies Awards.
I took these photos below on a recent visit to the distillery and brought back a distillery only bottling for The Haven customers. It won’t last long!
