WhiskyCast Episodes
WhiskyCast is where it all begins. Now in our 18th year, each weekly podcast brings you the latest in whisky news, along with the latest events, tasting notes, comments from other listeners, and the weekly “In-Depth” segment features interviews with the people who help make whisky the “water of life”.
Episode 485: June 27, 2014
Michael Urquhart is retiring from Gordon & MacPhail in September, but the leader of the family-owned business calls it a natural “changing of the guard.” However, his successor is the first person from outside the Urquhart family to lead Gordon & MacPhail in its 120-year history. We’ll talk whisky and family with Michael and Ewen Mackintosh on this week’s WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, there’s another retirement as Bruichladdich’s Duncan McGillivray wraps up his 40-year career, the Bourbon Capital of the World is getting another new distillery as the Bardstown Bourbon Distillery brings a Bourbon Hall of Famer home, and we’ll catch up with the guys from Seattle’s Westland Distillery as they spread their wings with a new distribution deal.
