Karen Somerville is co founder and director of Angels’ Share Glass & Co director of The Fife Whisky Festival. Angels’ Share Glass was founded in 2013 by Father & Daughter. Tom Young MBE was a world renowned glassblower and between them they came up with the idea to create Whisky filled Angels to represent the well known legend told in almost every distillery around the world.
