One Nation Under Whisky

Well, this is mighty peculiar! An Emmy Award winning actor, the one and only Matthew Rhys, on our cheeky wee whisky podcast? Oh yes! Listen in as Joshua and Jason talk with Matthew Rhys (did we mention he's an EMMY AWARD WINNING ACTOR?!) about whisky, acting, dad jokes, kill rooms, Wales, Penderyn single malt Welsh whisky, and also, the boys drink some fine and rare whiskies with Mr. Rhys. Super fun stuff. So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

Our 9th Annual Year in Review episode is here! The agenda? Joshua, Jason, and Jess discuss their favorite: One Nation Under Whisky episode/interview Event of the year Non-SCN whiskies of the year SCN whiskies of 2025 (all while drinking as much as was needed to ensure this episode was their best Year in Review episode to date!). ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

A couple weeks back our dear friend and listener of the padcost, Ollie Chilton of Elixir Distillers, told Joshua that he missed hearing good whisky news on our "Extra! Extra!!" episodes. Joshua gave him a challenge: "If you can bring us good whisky news, Ollie, we'll cover it on the padcost!" Well, Ollie brought some good news and so we decided it was best to have Ollie on the pad to discuss his good news with us.  ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

Joshua and Jason announce the release of the final Online Exclusive bottling of 2025: a 25 year old Laphroaig from a refill Bourbon Hogshead and the announcement is set to the backdrop of some history of production at the Laphroaig Distillery as well as close to 30 years of Laphroaig drinking experience. That and some serious belly laughs (rabbit, rabbit!).  This dreamboat of Laphroaig, distilled in 1999, that's somehow both fruity and mineral-y at once, launches on Tuesday, December 9 at Noon EST on singlecasknation.com. It's a special, special Laphroaig, nae doot! ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

A few episodes ago Jason asked Joshua if there were any distilleries of note in his home state of Connecticut (the pizza capitol of the world) and Joshua named just a few, one of them being Powdermen Spirits Co.  Located in Simsbury CT, Vince Lucca is producing delicious (and award winning) bourbon at Powdermen Spirits Co. and he's doing it in a way that's very unique; in a way that may have some hesitate or -- gasp -- say nay! Listen up nay sayers (and neigh sayers!), you need to listen to Joshua's conversation with Vince and hear and learn about his process because it's unlike anything you may have heard of before, and while it may not be traditional, it's making some damn fine whisky.  ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in.
