Episode 358: February 26, 2012

Each year, Glenmorangie releases a special edition finished in fine wine casks. This year’s edition is Artein, and takes the flavors of Sassicaia wine casks from Italy’s Tenuta San Guido in Tuscany. We’ll hear from Ferdinando Fiori, an Italian whisky connoisseur who suggested Sassicaia casks to Glenmorangie’s Bill Lumsden, and distillery manager Andy McDonald takes us to the Tarlogie Springs, the source of the distillery’s precious water supply.
