Celebrating 20 Years of WhiskyCast

This week, we’re celebrating the 20th anniversary of the very first WhiskyCast episode in 2005. We’ll hear from some longtime listeners, and chat with Tamdhu distillery manager Sandy McIntyre on this week’s WhiskyCast In-Depth. Tamdhu recently released a 21-year-old single malt as part of its core range, and we’ll taste it with Sandy and share tasting notes in the What I’m Tasting This Week Department. In the news, Diageo has a new CEO, while Irish distilleries report visitor traffic has returned to pre-pandemic levels. 

Episode 1135: November 16, 2025
