Description

With new U.S. trade tariffs scheduled to take effect this week, we’ll talk with importer Raj Sabharwal about the impact of those tariffs on whisky importers. Raj co-founded Glass Revolution Imports, which is the U.S. importer for Amrut whiskies from India, Blackadder Scotch whiskies, and many more brands, and he’s dealing with tariffs that have been changing almost daily. We’ll talk about the impact to his business on WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, Diageo brings a former executive back to serve as interim CFO, while former Mackmyra master blender Angela D’Orazio is joining Compass Box as creative director of whiskymaking.

I'm not going to lose a minute of sleep over this, especially given the price of blinged up imported whisky these days. it's also fortunate that we are not locked into buying these foreign made products and that the United States produces a plethora of excellent spirits and wines.
