Episode 384: August 25, 2012

Par Caldenby caught the whisky bug at an early age, but built a career as a lawyer in Sweden. The whisky bug first inspired him to write the book “Enjoying Malt Whisky” in 2006, and later to build his own distillery on Sweden’s West Coast. This week, Smögen Whisky marked the second anniversary of its first cask filling, and we’ll catch up with Par on WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, Heaven Hill’s Craig Beam tells us about this year’s Parker’s Heritage Collection bourbon, John Glaser of Compass box updates us on new Great King Street and Flaming Heart releases, and Springbank announces its 2013 Whisky School dates.
