Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inside One Cask at a Time with Jamie Morrison
Q: What role does cask selection play in your process, and how many samples do you evaluate before a bottling?
Cask selection is highly hands-on and subjective, with a small team evaluating multiple samples—often around 30—before deciding on a bottling, balancing personal preference with commercial viability.
Inside One Cask at a Time with Jamie Morrison
Q: Can you explain the three product ranges and what they represent?
Chronograph focuses on different finishes and earlier maturation, Pendulum is more distillery-character led with higher age statements, and Grandfather showcases older expressions, including special island and sherry-influenced bottlings.
Inside One Cask at a Time with Jamie Morrison
Q: What makes One Cask at a Time unique as an independent bottler, and how do you choose markets?
The uniqueness comes from releasing single casks with a strong emphasis on cask history, flavor individuality, and transparency, plus a highly selective approach to markets to ensure partners understand the limited nature of the releases.
Inside The Glendronach with Dr. Rachel Barrie
Q: What makes the very, very best single malts?
It's all about richness and refinement combined, similar to what constitutes the finest wines.
Inside The Glendronach with Dr. Rachel Barrie
Q: How would you find the role of a master blender today?
