A Bonny Wee Distillery in Edinburgh

Edinburgh's newest malt whisky distillery opened with a bang - or
perhaps, a cough. That's because the Bonnington Distillery had
barely filled its first few casks with new make spirit before the
Covid-19 pandemic forced Halewood Wines & Spirits to close
the place down for a deep cleaning to comply with public health
restrictions. Bonnington is the home for Halewood's revival of
the venerable John Crabbie & Co. Scotch Whisky brand, and
we'll talk with Marc Watson on WhiskyCast In-Depth. He oversees
distilling and maturation at Bonnington, and started his career
making gin before a certain podcast episode prompted him to focus
on whisky several years ago - he'll explain that story, too. In
the news, South Africa is reviving its nationwide ban on alcohol
sales as Covid-19 caseloads start to rise, and one of India's
largest whisky distilleries could be affected by a lockdown that
takes effect Tuesday while more U.S. states are closing bars
again. We'll hear how one Kentucky distillery is trying to keep a
Bourbon legend safe while still allowing visitors, and catch up
with the results of a special raffle to support an Irish
children's charity.
