  • Superb Podcast!!!

    I discovered this whiskey podcast about a week ago, & since then I have religiously been going through the previous episodes!

    The hosts have tons of knowledge, sense of humour & massive passion for whiskey (in all forms). Great array of subjects & guests.

    It’s swiftly become a must accompaniment to my obsession that is whiskey!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

THE THOMPSON BROS. LIVE - PART 2
Q: Do you plan more collaborations outside whiskey, or car brands and similar partnerships?
There is openness to non-traditional collaborations but a preference to keep focus on whiskey-related ventures; some joking mentions of potential cross-industry ideas.
THE THOMPSON BROS. LIVE - PART 2
Q: What are you feeling about American Whisky and potential US expansion?
They acknowledge interest and potential, noting stock positions, value opportunities, and the need to travel, sample casks, and assess partnerships before committing to a formal rollout.
THE INDIAN WHISKY MARKET EXPLAINED: IMFL, TARIFFS & 1.4 BILLION DRINKERS
Q: How do tariffs affect the Indian market in the near term?
Tariffs are coming down in a phased approach, which should gradually widen access and variety; end-consumer price benefits depend on local taxes and how much of the tariff relief is passed through by importers and brands.
THE INDIAN WHISKY MARKET EXPLAINED: IMFL, TARIFFS & 1.4 BILLION DRINKERS
Q: What is driving the growth of single malts in India?
Indians are increasingly educated about whisky, traveling globally, and seeking premium experiences; there is a growing middle class and a rising number of Indian-made single malts that prove locally produced products can compete with imported Scotch on quality and story.
THE FILMMAKERS OF THE WATER OF LIFE AND INDEPENDENT SPIRITS
Q: How did the independent spirits festival come about?
The idea for the festival emerged from discussions about the lack of an independent bottling festival in Scotland, leading to planning and execution due to strong community interest.
