Listen "Ask the Distiller: Ardbeg's Bill Lumsden"
Episode Synopsis
This week, Ardbeg and Glenmorangie's Dr. Bill Lumsden joins us to answer your questions posed in the WhiskyCast Community app. The questions ranged from why the new Ardbeg 17 is chill-filtered and bottled at 40% ABV to what it was like working with Beyoncé on her new SirDavis Whisky. We'll have Bill's answers on this week's WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, Scotch Whisky industry leaders are calling this week's UK excise tax hike a "betrayal" and a "kick in the teeth" — and we'll hear from Scotch Whisky Association CEO Mark Kent, who's also worried about the potential impacts of this week's US presidential election on tariffs. We'll also have the rest of the week's news, tasting notes, and much more.
