Season 5, Ep 21 -- Miles Munroe, Head Distiller and Blender, Westward Distillery

Joshua and Jason are quite passionate about the category of American Single Malt Whisky and have been vocal supporters of the American Single Malt Whisky Commission (ASMWC) since its inception.
 
Having the opportunity to sit down with one of the ASMWC's founder members, Miles Munroe of Westward Distillery in Portland Oregon, was a treat and an honor. Selecting a couple casks of his delicious single malt whisky with him, too, didn't suck. In fact, it was quite awesome.
