Small Province, Big Hearts

Bigger isn't necessarily better, and we have proof of that this
week with our podcast recorded on location at the New Brunswick
Spirits Festival in Fredericton, New Brunswick. The festival
punches well above its weight class to deliver an outstanding
event every year, and celebrated its 25th anniversary this
weekend. We'll talk with founder and chairman Frank Scott to find
out his secrets for success on WhiskyCast In-Depth, and we'll
also catch up with another old friend. Martine Nouet has been
organizing the festival's food and whisky lunches for years, but
is scaling back her whisky work to pursue other passions. In the
news, Diageo's venture capital unit has taken a stake in
England's Oxford Artisan Distillery, while Canadian Club is out
with another record-setting vintage whisky. Finally, Corby's Dr.
Don Livermore has coined a new word for whisky lovers, and he'll
share it with us on Behind the Label.
