The Society has added two new episodes to podcast Whisky Talk. Dr Bill Lumsden, the head of distilling and whisky creation at Glenmorangie and Ardbeg has been a constant force of innovation and flavour development over the past 30 years. SMWS members were fortunate to attend a tasting conducted by Dr Bill at The Vaults in October, tasting some fantastic whiskies from Glenmorangie, Ardbeg and of course the Society. In the episode he shares his thoughts on everything in the whisky world from additional maturation to non-aged statements, the use of sherry casks and a whole lot more in between.
Episode 50 of Whisky Talk features Karine Polwart, one of Scotland’s most respected singer-songwriters. She sat down at The Vaults with Vic Galloway for the latest episode of Whisky Talk: Malts & Music, to talk about about her passion for whisky and what songs – and places – our selection of Society drams conjured up in her mind.
