Batch 13: Terroir

Uncorked Whisky Sessions

CERTIFICATION - SUPER GEEKY.
Oh terroir, what a bone of contention you have become in recent months. What are we to do? It would seem some analysis needs doing. And who better to do undertake such a task than our very own Tweedle dee and Tweedle dum, Dr Whisky and Boutique-y Dave (we'll let you decide which is which...) To explore this pesky French creation, your hosts are joined by distiller Ian O'Brien of the Waterford distillery, a distillery has been at the centre of the terroir debate this year, and has based its production methods on the existence of terroir. Also joining the debate are the Thompson brothers of Dornoch Distillery, purveyors of rare whiskies, hotel owners, and distillation experimenters. Charge those glasses 'cause it's about to get nerdy.
