Scotland + Whisky, pt 1

Scotland is a beautiful and majestic country and they don’t mind waiting a generation to enjoy a glass of scotch if it means the drink comes out perfect. In this episode, we take a tour of Scottish whisky to talk different malts and blends, notable distilleries, impact on the local economy, and more. We invite our friend, Dave Kuhn, to take us on this journey through Scotland and give a primer for those not acquainted with the water of life. In part 1, our discussion takes us on a virtual tour of Scotland, visiting the different islands, and how to travel with whisky in your luggage. We discuss how scotch fuels the local economy for many communities and the controversy around blending malts. This is for every drinker from the scotch novice to the more advanced whisky drinker.
