Celebrations were in order when Unfiltered – the members’ magazine of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society – won best business and professional magazine design at the PPA Scottish Magazine Awards 2009
The award was presented at a glittering gala dinner in Edinburgh last night.
Deputy managing director Alan Ramsay said: "Unfiltered's success is a real feather in the cap for our head of design Renny Hutchison, project manager Jim Byers and everyone who contributes to the magazine editorially and creatively."
Kai Ivalo, sales and marketing director of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society, added: "I sent a note to all of the Society staff and received many responses that show I am not the only one who is thrilled that we won.
"While we already know that we work hard to create a wonderful magazine, it doesn't hurt for us to hear that other people believe the same."
A number of Connect titles and staff also won certificates of excellence at the Awards:
- CA Magazine Online - best online presence
- CA Magazine - business and professional magazine
- Standard for Standard Life - staff magazine
- Daniel Lambie - editor (business and professional)
