Episode 111: September 30, 2007

Ever wondered whether the CEO’s of whisky companies get any special perks? In this week’s episode, we’ll get the answer from Tom Flocco, CEO of Beam Global Spirits & Wine. On a more serious note, we’ll find out how the two-year-long process of integrating Laphroaig and other former Allied Domecq brands into Beam’s portfolio is going, along with his view of the global whisky market. In other news, the 2008 edition of the Malt Whisky Yearbook is out, and we’ll get a preview from editor Ingvar Ronde…along with word on new rare — and expensive malts from the Classic Malts series.
