How do you take an idea in the garden shed and turn it into a thriving  national business?  

This week on The Scottish Business Podcast I’m talking to co-director of  Angel’s Share Glass, Karen Somerville, who, alongside her Dad, took the  idea of making hand blown glass angels (for the angel’s share of the whisky) and grew it into a premium business that now creates a range of  Scottish made, hand blow, glass and collaborates with some of the UK’s  biggest distilleries.   

It’s been about 7 years since Angel’s Share started and in this open and  insightful conversation, Karen talks about learning the ropes in  business, tackling Covid-19 and how 2020 was meant to be the banner year  for Angel’s Share.   We also learn some fun stuff about whisky along the way.
