Episode description

Today’s episode is all about peat. We discuss in detail exactly what peat is, the part it plays in the whisky making process, what the phuck is a phenol, and debunk some terminology around this elusive little slab of earth - fittingly paired with a rather delightful and suitably peaty number from Ardbeg. Nikki brings us news from Scotland’s tourism front, a drinks crisis in Goa, and a curious attempt to cull an invasive green crab infestation. Finally, we share your feedback on last week’s journal-focused Instagram question, and set a question for the week ahead. Grab a dram, light a match, and let’s talk smoke!
