25 Years of the Ardbeg Committee

The Ardbeg Committee was one of whisky’s first online affinity groups, and celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. We’ll talk with Committee chair Jackie Thomson about the early days of the group, as well as the new Ardbeg Eureka release that marks the anniversary. In the news, the threat of U.S. tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports is back this week. Diageo is defending its lackluster earnings as a cyclical phenomenon, while Jack Daniel’s is introducing its oldest whiskey in more than a century.
