Charles Maclean and sons launch new charity foundation with plan to “turn whisky into water”
The Maclean Foundation, which has been founded by Ewan, Jamie and Lachlan Maclean alongside their dad Charles Maclean MBE, will raise funds for clean water projects through adventures and collaboration with the whisky industry.
To launch the charity, the brothers are set to embark on a human-powered journey rowing, running and cycling between all the Scottish malt whisky distilleries currently selling whisky.
During the trip, which the Edinburgh-born trio hope to complete in two weeks the trio will visit 120 distilleries to raise awareness for their campaign to independently bottle and sell donated casks to fund clean water projects.
In 2020, they became the first three brothers to row any ocean, as well as the fastest and youngest trio to row across the Atlantic Ocean.
