As Single Cask Nation hits its 15th year we also celebrate and welcome an important addition to the J-Team: Jasper Lyons. Jasper is our kinda guy -- leads with passion and curiosity, a great communicator, and a hellva lovely and thoughtful human. This episode is a way to introduce Jasper to The Nation and together we learn his own whisky journey and discuss how whisky lovers learn about, and fall in love with, Independent Bottlers. ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in.

After an 8 year hiatus, we've brought back Whisky Jewbilee to celebrate 15 years of Single Cask Nation -- the perfect celebration, not just for the J-Team but, and perhaps more specifically, for The Nation. Joshua, Jason, and Jess recap and relive their Jewbilee experience, share some video, emails, and more! ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

In celebration of the return of Whisky Jewbilee in Chicago, Joshua and Jason invited both David Cover of M&H Distillery and Sam Filmus of ImpEx Beverages to host an M&H whisky tasting at Warehouse Liquors in Chicago. Lots to learn, lots to laugh about, it was a helluva great time! Thanks to all who came out to join us live! ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

In today's special Remix episode we're revisiting our second live podcast recording! This was recorded live, in New York City, at the 7th annual Whisky Jewbilee. The boyz, in front of an audience of 40 people, have a conversation with Justin Fornal and Chad Anderson (two of the three swimmers of The Great Islay Swim), and Simon Brooking (remember him from Season 2, Episode 7?) of Beam Suntory. The topic? Well, if you must know, The Great Islay Swim and the bottling Single Cask Nation is releasing to commemorate the swim! ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in.

A continuing segment for our "Extra! Extra!!" padcosts -- as part of the Single Cask Nation 15th anniversary, we're inviting in Nation members to join us in conversation to drink some SCN whisky, hear about their whisky journey, and sometimes they'll get sneak peek if upcoming whiskies (that last bit did not happen in this episode, mind you). Listen in as Joshua sits down to talk and dram with Nation Member Michael Scott, one of our brightest stars in The Nation! ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

Greg Swartz and the team at Blacksmith & Jones are responsible for a number of notable documentaries. Those of us in the whisky-o-sphere surely know of "Water of Life Film," a documentary around the history and craft of Scotch whisky, or perhaps "Independent Spirits," which focused on Independent Bottlers (The J-Team are proud to have been featured in this film!). Today we sit down with Greg to discuss his latest film, "West of Tradition" which focuses on American Single Malt Whisky. So much fun was had during this conversation and we got to understand a fair bit about the film making process. Joshua & Jason always enjoy their time with Greg but this conversation was especially good. ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

Joshua and Jason recount their connections to Lochea, Raasay, and Dalmunach while drinking new SCN drams from these distilleries. Stories from the distilleries, why they love their whiskies and the people behind the liquid. ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

Strap in and get your swimmies on, dear listeners, we're going deep into whisky geekery with Anohka Distillery's Founder and Distiller, Gurpreet Singh Ranu. Gurpreet is a master of his craft yet someone who's always looking to improve and innovate. Listen into to one of our more geeky episodes (oh, and get ready to laugh, too! Gurprett is fun and funny as hell). ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

The J-Team gathered together to write tasting notes for a very special upcoming whisky (to be announced shortly) and decided to share their process on how they build the Flavometer -- something they rarely discuss.  This is a helluva fun time, listen, and peak behind the SCN curtain. ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in.
