The Bond Between Peat and Whisky

While politicians in Scotland debate a potential ban on the
harvesting of peat, author Mike Billett writes of the undeniable
ties between peat and whisky. In his new book “Peat and Whisky:
The Unbreakable Bond,” the peatland scientist explores Scotland’s
peat bogs, healthy and not so healthy, and how whisky companies
are helping to restore damaged peatlands back to health. Mike
Billett joins us on this week’s WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news,
whisky industry leaders are worried about the results of
Tuesday’s U.S. election and the potential for new tariffs in a
second Trump Administration.
