From The Courier.co.uk<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Hollywood star Gerard Butler\u00a0is putting the \u201cdram\u201d in drama after being honoured by Scotland\u2019s oldest working whisky distillery.<\/p>\n

The London Has Fallen actor, who is teetotal, is getting a cask named after him at the Famous Grouse Experience in Crieff.<\/p>\n

Paisley-born Butler, 46, is the fourth celebrity to be honoured as part of the \u2018Bottle Your Own\u2019 campaign, following in the footsteps of Ewan McGregor, Andy Murray and the\u00a0Earl and Countess of Strathearn, otherwise known as Prince William and Kate Middleton.<\/p>\n

Butler\u2019s single cask was hand-picked by master blender Kirsten Campbell. Limited edition bottles are now available at the distillery shop and online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Butler, whose latest film Gods of Egypt is in cinemas now, is a regular visitor to Perthshire. His\u00a0mother Margaret and stepfather Alex live in the village of Comrie.<\/p>\n

General manager Stuart Cassels said: \u201cGerard Butler may be a teetotaller, but he has a great appreciation for his home country. As such he will take his place in distillery history, alongside the other Bottle Your Own celebrities.\u201d<\/p>\n

A donation of \u00a32 from every bottle sold will be given to a good cause, Mr Cassels\u00a0said.<\/p>\n
