One Nation Under Whisky

Ep. 6 Richard Urquhart of Gordon & MacPhail

Richard Urquhart is a 4th generation Urquhart in the Gordon & MacPhail company. Gordon & MacPhail, whose products are ubiquitous when it comes to a good whisky shop's shelves, is perhaps the most iconic Scottish independent bottler in business today. Together, with the help of Richard Urquhart, Joshua and Jason solve the world's problems and lay out plans for world peace. Well, maybe not. However, the conversation is great, and we get to learn all about Gordon & MacPhail straight from one of the founding family's members!Have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!Special thanks to:

Ep. 5 Picking bourbon barrels with Eddie Russell of Wild Turkey Distillery

Who knew spending time with a bourbon legend could be so amazing? (rhetorical question, really.) April 4 found Joshua and Jason in the company of the one and only Eddie Russell of Wild Turkey Fame. Eddie, now 36 years into his life with the distillery, spent a disproportionate amount of his time with the Joshua and Jason (more time than they could have hoped for). Together the boys selected two casks of Wild Turkey Bourbon for Single Cask Nation and have a great in-depth conversation with Eddie.Have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!Special thanks to:

Ep. 4.5 Post April Fools Day with Westland Distillery

Episode four point five of One Nation Under Whisky podcast is here - who knew there'd be a partial and surprise episode on April 2, 2017? Well, we did, that's who. Bucking this new trend of releasing an episode every other Wednesday, we just *had* to clue you in on a portion of our conversation with Matt Hofmann (Master Distiller) and Steve Hawley (Maniacal Marketing Marauder) from Westland Distillery. That portion? Boldsmooth, the latest innovation in whisky ridiculous tomfoolery! Happy April Fools Day, one day after!Special thanks to:

Ep.4 Mark Watt, General Manager (aka Supreme Leader) of Wm Cadenhead's

Episode four of One Nation Under Whisky podcast is alive! Now with an established release schedule in place, every other Wednesday, Joshua and Jason have a sit down with Mark Watt, General Manager (aka Supreme Leader) of Wm Cadenhead's. The boys discuss how to manage 30+ whisky markets, Jason is told he asked a great question (and Mark was NOT paid to tell him that, promise), Mark tells the boys all about a 50+ year old Jamaican rum that's been in their warehouse and why it's not yet been bottled, and Mark brings up a *great* misconception! Sure, more is discussed but wouldn't it be better to hear all about it rather than read all about it?Special thanks to:

Ep.3 Post Whisky Jewbilee and a few interviews

Episode three of One Nation Under Whisky podcast is here! Now with an established release schedule in place, every other Wednesday, Joshua and Jason discuss the 2nd annual Whisky Jewbilee Seattle and have conversations with; Matt Hofmann (Westland Distillery, Master Distiller), Jessica Lomas (Scotch Whisky Auctions, Queen of the Boxes), and Jeff Kanof (Copperworks Distilling Company, Vice President). How hard is it to create a solid, respectable blend? Can we find "carrot" as a tasting note in our whisky? Is this episodes' "misconception" more of a chance for Joshua to grind his gears? Listen in to find out!Special thanks to:
