Episode 243: March 14, 2010

Michael Jackson passed away in 2007, leaving behind a legacy of excellence in whisky writing that includes his classic “Michael Jackson’s Complete Guide to Single Malt Scotch.” Now, an updated edition of his guide is being released, and fittingly, it took three men to do the job. Editors Dominic Roskrow, Gavin Smith, and William Meyers discuss the controversy over their work and how they worked together to create the new guide. In the news, Gordon & MacPhail unveils a 70-year-old Mortlach bottling, and the latest on new expressions from Four Roses, Glenfarclas, and The Whisky Exchange.
