Episode 277: September 5, 2010

Women are discovering whisky and other brown spirits at record levels, and dispelling the old myth that whisky is a “man’s drink.” Meghan Leary is the author of “Whiskey for Women” and the website of the same name, and is on the forefront of teaching women about whisky. She’ll share her insights with us on this week’s episode. In the news, Scotland’s government plans to impose minimum pricing over industry objections, Colum Egan of Bushmills picks his apprentice, and the “Water of Life Drive” reaches its goal for Charity: Water!
