On this episode of Wee Drams, Pam has an existential crisis as she (a true Scot, through and through) tries English Single Malt. Will Chelsey survive the episode?

We also briefly talk about Taylor Swift, because why not. She probably drinks whisky from time to time.

On todays episode, Pam and Chel are doing an experiment. Yes, thats right - for science. The question? Does weed enhance the whisky drinking experience or does it dampen the flavours --- they are determined to find out. 

Come join the Dram Fine gals as they dabble with some government sanctioned weed while trying  the Moonbroch - Spaceman Series - Isle Of Jura 2009.

What does one think of when they think of Canada? Bagged Milk, Celine Dion, "Oh yeah, no, for sure", The Tragically Hip, Handsome Ryans, Loonies, Hockey, or perhaps Degrassi High?

All stunning Canadian treasures (especially the bagged milk).

However, since Pam and Chel surround themselves with whisky more often than not, their answer to this overwhelming question would be Canadian Whisky.

Listen as they traverse the storied history of "fire water" in Canada and learn what we can expect from the industry in the coming years. They also speak with Author Davin de Kergommeaux (yes, they had to google how to pronounce his name) about his book Canadian Whisky: The Portable Expert.

Whisky's sampled in this episode:
1) Strathcona Spirits Pedro's Dreamland Whisky
2) Canadian Club 12 Year
3) Alberta Premium Cask Strength Rye


Music
Smooth in the Kitchen by Alexandra Woodward

It's ALIVEEEEEEEEEE! 

Well, maybe not, but that's what Pam and Chel expected with this 3 week long fermented scotch experiment known as the Ardbeg Fermutation. It's zingy, it's minty and it reminds Chelsey of her Grandma.

Check it out, fine people!

It's October and we're comin' in hot with some more SPPPPPOOOOKY tales! 

We talk distillery accidents from the 19th century, ghosts and of course some light cannibalism. We also have a few drams from the Fable Whisky Collection to help ease the the overwhelming sense of dread - push it down with brown, that's what we always say! **throws dust into fire**

On this Episode, Pam and Chel chat with the incomparable Shelley Sackier, Author of the fantastic book Make it a Double.  Shelley tells us all about her journey from whisk(e)y hater to whisk(e)y lover and how she translated that pilgrimage into writing this must read book.

Since she's also the director of Whisky Education at Reservoir Distillery , she leads through a tasting of 3 tasty whiskies.

Also, Chelsey makes some horrible puns and Pam hates her for it.  You don't want to miss it!

We recorded this bonus episode WAY WAY BACK after our in person event when we interviewed  Greg W Swartz, ‘The Water of Life” Producer and Director + Gez McAlpine, representing Bruichladdich, Remy Cointreau National Manager. We had a bunch of questions we never got to ask them at the time, so here are 'The Questions We Never Asked'.

If you've seen the film, this episode has some great BTS chat and stories from the making of that will make you want to watch the movie again... and if you haven't see it yet, you'll want to fix that immediately.

A couple of special appearances from Jenna AKA @Whiskyagogirl, Rab McEachern Bruichladdich Brand Education and Academy Manager, and music from Fraser Shaw (www.frasershawtrust.com).

About the Film:
The Water of Life - A Whisky Film is a feature documentary that focuses on the craftsmen, chemists, and renegades at the heart of the whisky revolution that turned the stagnant scotch whisky industry of the 1980s into the titan it is today.
