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.

...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!

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.
