Legends & Luxury in the Whisky World (Episode 736: October 28, 2018)

Many whisky lovers consider the "water of life" to be a regular
part of their lives, but there's no arguing that whiskies are
becoming as much of a luxury item as fine watches, artwork,
wines, and other rarities. That's the world James Espey and Tom
Jago entered with their final act in the whisky business eleven
years ago when they formed The Last Drop Distillers after
collaborating on too many iconic whisky brands to count. Today,
their daughters run the business after it was sold to Sazerac
last year, and just days after Tom Jago's death earlier this
month, his daughter Rebecca Jago took center stage with The Last
Drop at this week's Walpole showcase of British luxury goods.
We'll talk with her on WhiskyCast In-Depth, and we'll also catch
up with Louise McGuane of Ireland's Chapel Gate Whiskey Company
fresh off a win in the Irish Whiskey Awards for her J.J. Corry
Flintlock single malt.
