Knockin' Around with Knockdhu's Gordon Bruce (Episode 764: April 21, 2019)

The farming village of Knockdhu has 29 residents, 17 dogs, a
bunch of sheep and cattle...and one distillery. Gordon Bruce has
called Knockdhu home since 2006 as the manager of Knockdhu
Distillery, the home of Inver House's anCnoc single malt Scotch
Whisky. We first met Gordon in 2011 during a tour of the
distillery, and caught up with him again at the recent Wonderful
World of Whisky Show in Cornwall, Ontario - one of his rare trips
away from that tiny farming village in Aberdeenshire. You'll hear
our conversation on WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, the
University of Kentucky's distilling studies program has a Bourbon
benefactor after Beam Suntory donated $5 million to establish the
James B. Beam Institute for Distilling Studies. Bushmills has
received local approval for a $39 million expansion project that
will add a second stillhouse and double the distillery's
capacity. We'll also look at the week's new whiskies and much
more, along with announcing the winner of our latest WhiskyCast
competition!
