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.

“People make Glasgow” – that’s the slogan the city of Glasgow selected to show that Glasgow is so much more than what you can see from the outside.
And one could argue the same is true for Glasgow Distillery; a distillery totally different from many of those long-established ones you will find all over Scotland – a more modern one, aquite small one, maybe a more industrial one but with a wonderful charm because of so many people who love what they’re doing, who put their hearts into making their single malt, who make this place what it is and who fill it with life: “People make Glasgow Distillery”.
One of those people who make Glasgow Distillery is Sebastian Bunford-Jones, their head of marketing, who Miri and Manu met for a chat in the distillery’s beautiful, but to date largely unused tasting room (due to the fact that the distillery is not open to the public as of now).
Apart from working at Glasgow Distillery for about 8 years now, Sebastian is a real whisky enthusiast and that’s also why he is already excited to showcase Glasgow Distillery’s first 10-year-old whisky later this year, the journey of which he has accompanied almost from the get-go.
Listen in and discover why Glasgow is the place to be when it comes to producing single malt whisky these days. Throughout the episode, get to know Sebastian and the distillery’s special approach to making whisky. And last but not least, find out about how their beautiful tasting room, the place of recording, might be filled with life in the nearer future.
