Immersing you in the controversial history of whisky distilling in Loch Lomond, Matt and Gianluca introduce a story of uisge beatha, steeped in the culture of ancient kings of Scotland. From noble medicine to prime party material, the history here burns hot like the kiln in which the malted barley is dried. Undercover gangs, community solidarity and the aggressive crackdown of a new imperial British state - a mash-up of mad-cap adventures of the islands and surrounding hills of the Loch. Can the boys distil these raw tales into a famous audio tipple full of character and quality? Listen now to find out, on all your podcast platforms...

Immerse yourself in Scotland's most famous natural environment through the informed and uninformed conversations of two local lads from Loch Lomond and the Trossachs in the beautiful West of Scotland. Mixing hours of dense research with spontaneous reflections on the more odd aspects of growing up in the region, Gianluca and Matt will take you on a truly authentic and (for better or for worse) unforgettable sonic journey along the famous Bonnie Banks.
