Dramface Colonials Podcast 11

Finishing & finishesThe addled and distracted editing gnomes have finally ended their strike for more and better benefits. Much celebration ensued when the leader of Editing Union #89 announced the gnomes would return to the editing floor once they were guaranteed access to Blackberry Crown Royal at their desks and have the previous dress code eased to enable polyester jump suits.First out of the vault, the editors dusted off the Colonials’ episode #11 from a number of months ago when they waxed eloquent about cask finishes and maturations.The formerly locked-away episode came back to life when dusted off and put in the old reel to reel. Rob, Angus, Mike, Chuck, and Adam talk about whether they look for finished malts – are finished malts preferred? And, as they chat, discussions about the master distillers’ decisions and intentionality are covered. They also speak to the processes leading to the making of cask finished amber liquid. What are the intentions behind different finishes? Could it be done better? Could Colonials even suggest such heresy? Oh, it appears they can.Seriously, though – the lads are very glad to be back and glad to share some Colonials insight and laughter.Slainte!Thanks for your patience again and hope you enjoy!
