Miami is calling us this August. We’re headed to the American Distilling Institute (ADI) Conference 2026 at the Miami Beach Convention Center this month to show there’s a better way to manage inventory and optimise distillery workflows , and you guessed it, it’s with our modern operating system. It is our fourth year exhibiting at ADI, and you can find us on the expo floor from 18 to 19 August at Booth 649 where our US team will be out in force ready to tell you why choose Proof 8.

No paper, no doubt: Scotland’s newest whisky warehousing facility shuns paper records from day one . Just outside Edinburgh, on a 150-acre former Royal Navy yard near the Forth Bridge in Dalmeny, a different kind of whisky business is taking shape. Royal Elizabeth Bond is an independent cask storage facility, holding casks on behalf of distillers, brokers and private cask owners from across the UK and Ireland. The site already has nine large warehouses in operation, and with planning consent for a further 800,000 square feet of new-build storage, it is set to become one of Scotland’s largest independent cask storage facilities with eventual capacity for around 1.1 million casks. But scale isn’t the only thing that sets Royal Elizabeth Bond apart. Where most warehouses inherit decades of paper delivery orders and spreadsheets, Royal Elizabeth Bond started with a blank sheet and used it to do things differently from the very first cask. The team chose to build on digital foundations from day one, giving every cask a Digital Deed via a QR code that captures its history and whereabouts and stays with it for life.

What is TTB reporting?. TTB reporting is one for our US customers and something every US distilled spirits producer knows about and must submit. They’re a set of federal filings which go to the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau covering excise tax returns on the spirits you remove, plus monthly operational reports on what you produce, store and process. For a lot of distilleries, TTB reporting mostly means pulling numbers out of three or four spreadsheets at month-end, or from different systems, maybe cross-checking them against handwritten records, and then a wing and a prayer that the totals agree before the deadline. It works, up until the point a figure is keyed in wrong somewhere along the line.
