Description

This episode is a packed-out catch-up filled with incredible news and a whole lot of chat. We're back in our spiritual home at The Diggers and have some major news to share right at the start!


We've secured an exclusive 15% discount for our listeners on tours at the revived Rosebank Distillery. We break down just how good a deal this is, especially with a dram of the 32-year-old Rosebank on offer!


In the episode, we also dive into:


The highly anticipated return of Scapa 16 Year Old and whether it lives up to its legendary reputation.


A lively debate on what makes a distillery "cool," with arguments for Springbank, InchDairnie, and the Thompson Brothers.


A blind tasting of a Mystery Malt from Batch 2! Can we guess what's in the bottle?


A fun fantasy about what our own independent bottling company would be and which distillery we'd approach for casks.


The craziest cask finishes we can imagine, from Irn-Bru to Buckfast.


This is a fun, off-the-cuff episode filled with plenty of laughs and even more great whisky.


Get 15% off your Rosebank tour with code: WSP15
