To my shame I’ve only started listening recently. A fantastic whiskey podcast exploring everything from the history of lost distilleries all the way up to what’s up and coming in Irish whiskey. Great guests and a nice relaxed format. Laurie’s thirst for knowledge and enthusiasm shines through. Great to listen to while having a dram.

Apple Podcasts5Tony B CorkIreland4 years ago - Best Irish Whiskey Podcast
If you have even a passing interest in whiskey then this podcast is a must. Amazing guests from the industry, always informative. But the garden chats episodes, where people from outside the whiskey industry speak their mind on whatever their drinking, are fantastic. Great craic and no BS in whatever they’re saying.
