Writing a New Chapter in Whisky History (Episode 762: April 7, 2019)

Lindores Abbey has a unique place in whisky history, thanks to
Friar John Cor and the aqua vitae he distilled for the King
in 1494. Gary Haggart has a direct link to the Friar as the first
distillery manager at the Lindores Abbey Distillery, built right
next to the ruins of the original abbey. He's even distilling
modern-day aqua vitae instead of gin or vodka while the
Lindores Abbey single malt matures. During the recent Wonderful
World of Whisky show in Cornwall, Ontario, Haggart presented
Lindores Abbey's young spirit to consumers for the first time,
and we'll talk with him on WhiskyCast In-Depth. We also took our
studio setup to Friday night's American Whiskey Convention in
Philadelphia to talk with whisky lovers just like you as well as
some of the distillers on hand that night. There's a lot to
unpack in this episode, so make sure your battery's charged!
