A Conversation with Holyrood Distillery

On this episode we're honored to be joined by Rob and Calum from Holyrood Distillery located in Edinburgh. Not only do we sample their amazing Embra and Ambir whisky, we also chat about Scottish weather, starting a distillery in Edinburgh, a business for the people, why time flies when you’re making whiskey, Edinburgh as a landing point, the responsibility of the distillery, complete whisky geeks, the hospitality of the Scottish people, Brewing being in the city’s DNA, getting inspiration from the entire whisky community, the future of whisky is experimentation, the difficulty of painting with colored pencils, the unseen whisky magic, the peated whisky arms race, our new favorite word - claggy, getting the stamp of approval from a Scottish gran, the malt elevator, everyone's infatuation with age, the challenges of distilling in Edinburgh, and being willing to engage in the collective whisky making experience.
