Episode Synopsis

In part 1 of a 2 part series we're honored to be joined by Gregor and Paul of Hannah Whisky Merchants. We chat about investigative dramming, getting stung on the face by a wasp, laughing before asking if things are ok, bubbles and plateaus, transit sherry, what's an independent bottler, contract distilling, the role of the independent bottler in the whisky industry, tea spooning, whisky provenance, cask selection, experimentation in Scotch, much more to it than simply picking a cask, being obsessed with age, identifying the nuances of each cask, love of the new make, magic and science and everything in between, St. Bridget's Kirk solera system, the nervous SWA, what excites us about independent bottlers, changes in the American whiskey consumer, benefits and downsides of small business, and what is probably the best job in the world.  Visit Lady of the Glen to Grab an Amazing Bottle: https://www.ladyoftheglen.com  Support Us On Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/DrepandStone We'd love to hear from you! https://linktr.ee/DrepandStone Don't forget to subscribe!
