Glasgow is home to many things whisky-related: Glasgow Distillery, Clydeside Distillery, The Bon Accord, The Pot Still, an SMWS Member's Room, and the home the one and only Jessica Rabbit Guillermo Lomas. The list could go on, really, but would surely be an "incomplete Joshua-Hatton-list" if we left off The Good Spirits Company; one of Glasgow's most respected and well curated whisky shops. Period.

Listen in Jess speaks with Co-owner, Matthew McFayden, about all things Good Spirits Co. It's a cracking conversation, to be sure!

What's more is Jess gives us a recap of her time at the 2025 Glasgow's Whisky Fest.

Single Cask Nation -- America's Original Independent Bottler -- is nearing on 15 years as an independent bottling company. Catch up with the Joshua, Jason, and Jess as they recount their very beginnings and talking about the growth of the company through the lens whisky, packaging changes, the addition of a US retail range, Global growth, and now a pending brand refresh. Lot's of stories here to tell and things we discuss that some of us completely forgot about (looking at you, Hatton!)

If you’re long-time listeners (now viewers!) of One Nation Under Whisky then you know that, each October, the J-Team drop an episode highlighting their favorite SCN and non-SCN Whiskies of the Year. This year is a little different. Joshua, Jason, and Jess decided to move their favorite non-SCN Whiskies of the Year to their “Year in Review” episode (coming in December) and have focused today’s episode solely on their favorite SCN Whiskies of the Year: Online Exclusive, US Retail, and Rest of the World releases.

There are some surprises in here, for sure, and Joshua is convinced Jason may have cheated during the guessing game that is today's episode. Tune in, turn on, and dram along...

While we mentioned three already in our last Extra Extra Episode (Season 9 Ep 34) today we're revealing the other three. Strap in because, holy cow...

Joshua and Jason welcome both Shane "Showtime" Armstrong (Master Blender, Westland Distillery) and Jason Moore (Managing Director, Westland Distillery) back to the podcast.

In this episode we find our very own Jason visiting with Shane at the Westland "Sensory Lab" going through the design, make-up, and flavors of Garryana 10yo, and then our time with Jason Moore was a chat over Zoom with us discussing the theft of over 12,000 bottles of Westland's whisky which included Garryana 10yo, as well as their "Flagship" and "Watchpost" bottlings. Add to this, and perhaps most importantly, we discuss the historic nature of this Garryana release which is Westland's first age stated whisky!

Finally, Joshua and Jason take you through their tasting notes of this seriously epic dram. Spoiler alert: Hot shit, this is good whisky.

It's always lovely having Scott Harris of Catoctin Creek Distilling Company return to the podcast. In today's episode he and Jason discuss the state of the whisky industry writ large (and the fact that Scott feels we're coming out of some difficult times), an investment opportunity in the distillery, potential expansion of the distillery, and just for funsies, Scott makes them both a couple of Toronto cocktails using the newest Catoctin Creek Maple Cask Rye.
