This is not a Scotch Episode -- we repeat -- this is not a Scotch episode. We are joined today by a very influential woman in Irish Whiskey. On this podcast, Chelsey and Pam chat with the amazing Louise McGuane. She’s the first modern whiskey bonder in Ireland in well over 50 years, the founder of JJ Corry Irish Whiskey. She’s been featured in the likes of Forbes magazine and Her bottlings have already won numerous awards, including a Gold Medal in the Irish Whiskey Awards and the SF World Spirits Awards.
