Digging Into Scotland's Whisky History

Thousands of illicit distilling sites exist around Scotland.
Derek Alexander and his team of archaeologists at the National
Trust for Scotland have barely scratched the surface of the
country’s bothys, but their recent digs have uncovered some rare
artifacts of illicit distilling’s past. We’ll catch up with Derek
on this week’s WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, The Balvenie’s
longtime Malt Master, David Stewart, is standing down after 47
years in the post. The UK, Australia, and New Zealand all raised
liquor taxes this week, and Suntory is celebrating its 100th
anniversary with a “tiny house” tour of America.
