Episode 424: May 12, 2013

Back in 2006, we first met Barry Stein and Barry Bernstein as they were just getting started as Canada’s first independent Scotch whisky bottlers and dreamed of making their own whisky. in 2009, they opened Still Waters Distillery in a Toronto suburb, and on April 27, the first cask of their Stalk & Barrel single malt whisky went on sale. This weekend, they were pouring it at the Spirit of Toronto festival, and we’ll catch up with the guys on WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, Diageo’s shaking up the executive suite, the Kentucky Bourbon Trail gets a new stop on Louisville’s Whiskey Row, and we’ll hear about new whiskies from Mackmyra, Jura, Corby, and Masterson’s.
