What is Peat? Who is Peat? Why is Peat?
Today’s episode is all about peat. We discuss in detail exactly what peat is, the part it plays in the whisky making process, what the phuck is a phenol, and debunk some terminology around this elusive little slab of earth - fittingly paired with a rather delightful and suitably peaty number from Ardbeg. Nikki brings us news from Scotland’s tourism front, a drinks crisis in Goa, and a curious attempt to cull an invasive green crab infestation. Finally, we share your feedback on last week’s journal-focused Instagram question, and set a question for the week ahead. Grab a dram, light a match, and let’s talk smoke!
