The lovely team at Waiheke Island Distillery in New Zealand were kind enough to send Joshua and Jason their latest range of whiskies including a cask sample that shows the direction their spirit is going with some new stills the Distillery has installed. Along with the whisky samples came full information including:

• Barley types
• Yeast types
• Fermentation times
• Fermentation ABV
• Spirit cut points
• Cask type
• ...and more!

A true whisky geeks delight! Listen in as J&J taste through three cracking Single Malts from New Zealand's Waiheke Distillery as well as some of their 14 month old peated spirit!

...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

Ok, whisky geeks, this is why you subscribe the One Nation Under Whisky Padcost. It's in depth whisky conversation like this. Jason and Ewan go so far down the Clynelish rabbit hole, discussing science, flavor, and even mythology, that as they venture down the rabbit hole they bypass Alice and all the inhabitants of Wonderland. It's wonderful.

Note: This episode is on YouTube and there's a powerpoint presentation in there that is SO INCREDIBLY worth seeing. Ewan has only ever shown this powerpoint once before and it's the most amazing, in depth thing you'll ever see.

If you love Clynelish get ready to understand why you love it so much (and then start to love it even more). All Hail the Duke of Sutherland, Ewan Morgan!

Joshua & Jason discuss some very special Scotch whiskies being released on singlecasknation.com on Thursday, September 18: a 14yo BenRiach, 12yo Clynelish, and 8yo "Cawdor Springs". They also read some listener mail and drink a little whisky together. All in all, they had a heck of a time together.

A wonderfully geeky conversation is had between Joshua, Yoni Miller (SCN's in-house Cigar Czar/Tobacco Trouble-Maker/Meme-Meiser) and Terence Reilly of Aganorsa Leaf surrounding the ins and outs of cigar production, Aganorsa Leaf, and the next SCN cigar project with them using the Single Cask Nation ex-Balcones peated cask. Lots of fun conversation to be had!

NOTE: Sadly, the video file from the conversation was lost in transfer so you won't be able to see any of the beautiful faces for this episode. Apologies!

Joshua and Jason discuss the details of Single Cask Nation's August 2025 US Online Exclusive Releases along with the various whisky bundles coming with them. They also swear quite a lot at one another. Is it more so than usual? There's only one way to find out...

Independent Bottling tends to have a sharp focus on Scotch whiskies, specifically single malt. There are a few notable bottlers that focus solely on American Spirits (Lost Lantern and Crowded Barrel come to mind here) but there's no independent bottler that focuses solely on World Whiskies. Well, not until now.

Meet Pablo Goldbarg of Catador Itinerante, an independent bottler who does just that. He's also a long time friend of Joshua and Jason. Here's to a great conversation and a lot of laughs*

*apologies to the Spanish speaking community for Joshua's terrible attempts at speaking your language. He will get a branch to the back!
