Scotland and whisky go together like fish and chips, biscuits and tea or gin and tonic. 

On "Inside Whisky - The Barrel Talk" we talk to people working in the whisky industry and listen to their stories - may they be about whisky, their lives or the places they live in. 

Our podcast might be a bit geeky from time to time but whisky beginners will also find joy when listening to The Barrel Talk.

Batch 7 Episode 4

2026-07-01 54 min

Some stories are best told over a dram—and Glencadam has more than 200 years' worth of stories to share.

In this episode of The Barrel Talk, hosts Miri and Manuel sit down with Iain Forteath, Master Blender and Global Brand Ambassador for Angus Dundee Distillers, to uncover the story behind one of the Highlands' best-kept whisky secrets. Elegant, fruit-forward, traditionally crafted, and proudly Highland, Glencadam has quietly built a reputation for authenticity and a style that puts the spirit centre stage.

Drawing on more than 200 years of tradition, Iain reveals what gives Glencadam its distinctive character—from the careful art of cask selection to the distillery's commitment to craftsmanship. Along the way, the conversation explores the Glencadam's approach to whisky-making and why patience and precision remain at the heart of every dram.

Whether you're a longtime Glencadam fan or discovering the distillery for the first time, this episode is packed with behind-the-scenes insights, whisky wisdom, and memorable stories from the warehouse to the glass.
Pour yourself a dram and join Miri, Manuel, and Iain for a conversation that celebrates Highland craftsmanship, remarkable whisky, and the people who bring it all to life.
