Class is always in session at ACAST.com.

Hello, I'm John Beattie.

Welcome to Cask to Glass, the whisky podcast where I explore the heritage and flavour of Scotland's national drink and the world's favourite spirit.

Cask to Glass is proud to be brought to you by the Scotch Whisky Association's Made to be Measured campaign.

But when it came to the Patterson Collection for Harrods, way back in 2014, etc., we actually reduced it down to the perfect drinking strength, so you don't need to add any water.

But when it comes to these whiskies, really... you shouldn't be drinking water because it'll start to really collapse so drinking but holding it long in the mouth and i'm talking at least for that 30 seconds top of the tongue underneath back in the middle really give it a long time to coat it not the first taste but the second taste do the first time get used to it then go back a second time and that will really reveal what's in that whiskey

We hear, don't we, on almost every podcast that the market for whisky is getting much, much tougher.

David, first of all, the history of Glen Withers Distillery.

Glen Withers

was the brainchild of a chap called John McKenzie.

a local farmer and helicopter pilot, and he had a wizard idea to create a distillery in the town of Dingwall.

I like going to Glasgow Hockey's good club.

Might bump into one of my heroes, John Beattie.

I'm buzzing to be back in.

It does feel a wee bit early, but hey, here we go.

No, it's a pleasure, John.

Thanks for having me.

I've been looking forward to this one.

And we do.

As a teenage hooker, it's nice to meet another whisky icon.
