Mike & Duncan catch up about their summer breaks, or lack of one, then review a half a hatful of Bimber Shoulders of Giants Releases, whilst pondering the influence bestowed from the Palo Cortado, or Fino casks. Duncan appears to have dressed up for the episode, and Mike's not sure why.

Mike & Duncan host Alex Munch, Co-Founder of Stauning Whisky, for a light hearted, yet fairly geeky episode on the past, the present and the future of the distillery.

Expect gratuitous chat about smoky whisky, and did a cask ABV actually go up?! Stauning will be 20 years old in December 2025, and we get a bit of a scoop as we hear about life after the separation from Diageo. Alex gives us his Pudding Island drams too, and posits Denzit, or maybe that was us.
