Starting with the shaded letter, move up or down or sideways (but not diagonally)

to find a path through these Speyside distilleries. The last letter of the trail

has also been shaded.

All you have to do is identify

the three bottle labels. A clue

is that the bottles are shown

somewhere within the magazine.

Once you have the correct

answer email it to

[email protected] and the

first correct answer drawn out of

the hat will win a bottle of whisky.

Good luck! Congratulations to

our last winner, Paul Slocombe.

Puzzle answers will be shown in

Issue 162.

Complete the crossword correctly and then rearrange the letters in the shaded squares to

spell out a famous Scottish distillery (9).
