    Chestnuts in the Cévennes: Catching Up with a Post-Summer Dram

    It's been a while since our last episode, but you'll understand why when you hear about everything that's been going on with us! Moving houses/countries, lots of travel... and cats*! We chose a slightly unusual dram to taste, going back to France for a smaller distillery: Distillerie des Camisards. Small stills, chestnut casks, and a distinctive spirit - a lovely side of France to return to! Thanks to distiller Antoine for this sample (and the tour back in 2023!) You can read more about that visit on the EuroWhisky blog... Of course, it was also time to play Mystery Reviews again, and to shout out Gospel in Melbourne! Any ideas or questions, keep them coming on social media (@EuroWhisky / @Ripper_Whiskies) or via stuarteurowhisky@gmail.com *Rest assured, cat photos will be made available on our social media

    German Whisky II - Festivals, Relocations, and a Mystery Review

    After the World Whisky Konferenz (Kempen) and Festival des Deutschen Whiskys (Schlitz) in April and May, we thought it was time to come back to German single malts! There's also some whisky news discussion and a look at the @VilniusWhiskyFestival , which Stuart visited as he settled into his new Lithuanian home. Our tasting dram for this episode was also German - a @BoutiqueyWhisky bottling of @SailltMor single malt which @EuroWhisky and @Ripper_Whiskies both loved! Other mentions in this ep: - @NORDIK_Edelbrennerei - Wilderness Whisky, Kaunas LT - @Tecker_Spirits - @KyroDistillery - @StauningWhisky - @StorkClubRyeWhiskey - @Storgaard.Heather - @CDNWhiskyProf - @BrennereiHenrich - @AlandDistillery

    Norwegian Whisky and Nordic History with Heather Storgaard

    While Nordic whisky is something we've touched on a little, we never got the chance to learn so much about Norwegian whisky until we got to chat with Heather Storgaard! While a little chat about Myken got swallowed by the techno-kraken, we still got a good discussion of Bivrost, whisky history, and how the Nordic whisky world is developing. As always, check out more of our episodes if you enjoy this one, but also... - @BivrostSpirits and @MykenDest for Norwegian whisky - @RipperWhiskies for one co-host's drams - @EuroWhisky for more European whisky content - Thoughts and Q.s to stuarteurowhisky@gmail.com Want more Heather? Check out @storgaard.heather on IG! Heather Storgaard is a whisky writer based in Edinburgh, with experience in whisky auctions and a mentee of the OurWhisky Foundation. She works with whisky and related topics all over the North Sea world - Nordic languages, historical manuscripts, recent whisky news, and even an ode to Smørrebrød! **This was also recorded just before the whole #RyeGate story really broke, otherwise we would have talked about that too!**

    B.Y.O.D. (Build Your Own Distillery) - A Late Christmas Episode

    We've had a first Christmas episode, yeah... but what about Second Christmas episode? Stuart & Harry just couldn't bear for the holidays to end so soon - so they're living in denial and releasing an end-of-year episode in January. Sampling whisky from Germany's first whisky-makers Habbel, reading another mystery review, and answering a question from Ali Baxter: If you could build your own distillery from the best parts of all the others that exist, what would your ultimate distillery look like? Many thanks again to sponsor Kyrö - and to any and all listeners! Keep your questions and feedback coming on social media (@EuroWhisky / @Ripper_Whiskies on Instagram) or by email at stuarteurowhisky@gmail.com
