As Joshua, Jason, and Jess circle around the upcoming season (that's Season 9, btw, which is absolutely bonkers to us) they consider the feedback that's been sent in over the last year. Listeners had a loads of input and so the 3 J's decided to listen to many of the great ideas and enact them!

Lots more to be shared regarding Season 9 (and subsequent seasons) however, until then, while the 3 J's work diligently on building out the next season, please enjoy a re-release of one of the most popular ONUW episodes of all time: David Stirk and his Master Class on Independent Bottling from our Season 2 opener!

Joshua, Jason, and Jess -- the 3 J's -- are all together in Scotland and are on the road to Ardnamurchan to meet with Carl Crafts (Sales Executive) and Al (Distiller) for a very behind the scenes tour at the Ardnamurchan distillery. It's not too often folk have a chance to get through to a distillery so we thought we'd share a virtual experience with you. 

We'll go through each step of the whisky making process at Ardnamurchan and then end with some fantastic cask pops in the warehouses! Finally, distillery tour aside, the 3 J's share details of their final online bottlings for 2024 launching Nov 21st!

In their previous episode of One Nation Under Whisky, Joshua, Jason, and Jess gave you an overview of some new Single Cask Nation releases for the remainder of 2024 and referred to these releases as being so large they were to be known as a #MurderOfCasks. 

Listen in as Joshua and Jason turn the overview of casks into a deep dive of casks all while tasting a few new whiskies along the way. Wondering which bottles to get to put under the Christmas Tree, or for friends and family during Chanukkah or Kwanzaa? Tune in friends. You will not want to miss this. Tune in, turn on, and pour a glass!

New single malt distilleries have been popping up everywhere be they in the UK, EU, US, Asia, the Middle East, etc... it seems one can't open up their email inboxes without hearing news of a new distillery enterprise. Quite exciting if you ask us!

Nearly all of these distilleries start by launching a Vodka and a Gin (or some sort of "botanical spirit") to keep their distillery afloat while they wait for their whisky to be of age to bottle and sell. Most of these distilleries -- some of our very favorites, to be very clear -- are set up specifically to produce delicious whiskies at very young ages (3, 4, 5yo, etc...).

This is where Kythe's approach stands apart. Their aim is to make whisky in the manner it was made in the 50's/60's/70's which could very well mean they're not expected to release a standard core whisky for quite some time. Impatient folk like us may have to wait (and wait) to taste. The waiting is the hardest part but good things also come to those that wait so....

Anywho, listen in as Jess discusses the ins and outs of the Kythe Distillery with 2 of its founders: Jonny McMillan & Angus MacRaild. Listen, too, to hear details of our latest US release and our upcoming global releases. 8 casks of whisky. So many that we're calling it a #MurderOfCasks !
