Independent bottlers take sourced casks of whisky, mature them, and then bottle them under their own brand names. It's a practice that's been commonplace in Scotland for generations, and has expanded to the U.S. with independents like Single Cask Nation and Lost Lantern. Greg Swartz is the co-director of Independent Spirits, a new documentary series highlighting independent bottlers, and he'll join us on this week's WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, a cask investment firm with an estimated $80 million in casks has gone into administration, while Moet Hennessy plans to lay off 1200 workers and return headcount to pre-pandemic levels.

In this episode of EmbellishPod, I had the pleasure of welcoming Josh and Jason from Single Cask Nation, a pioneering independent bottler in the whiskey industry. We dove deep into the fascinating world of independent bottling, exploring its significance in the whiskey landscape, particularly in the United States, where it is still a relatively novel concept. We kicked off the conversation with an introduction to Single Cask Nation, where Josh and Jason shared their journey from whiskey enthusiasts to independent bottlers. They recounted how their passion for whiskey led them to champion lesser-known distilleries and how they aim to highlight unique expressions of whiskey that might otherwise go unnoticed. Jason took us through his personal journey into whiskey, starting from his university days in Aberdeen, where he discovered the joys of single malts. He reminisced about his early experiences and how they shaped his love for whiskey. Josh, on the other hand, shared a compelling story about his transition from being straight edge to discovering the rich flavors of whiskey, particularly through his first encounter with Lagavulin 16. This moment sparked his deep dive into the world of whiskey, showcasing how flavors can evoke powerful memories and emotions. As we continued our discussion, we touched on the challenges of selecting casks for bottling. Jason explained their meticulous selection process, emphasizing the importance of texture and the connection between the nose and palate. They shared insights into how they taste through numerous casks, often experiencing minimal disagreement due to their shared passion and understanding of quality whiskey. We also explored the evolution of their brand and the role of social media in building a community around Single Cask Nation. Josh highlighted the positive atmosphere in their Facebook group, where members engage in supportive discussions about whiskey, share experiences, and connect with one another. This sense of community has been crucial in maintaining authenticity and trust with their audience. Towards the end of the episode, we discussed the balance between education and production, as they navigate their roles as both educators and independent bottlers. They emphasized their commitment to transparency and authenticity, ensuring that their recommendations and products reflect their genuine passion for whiskey. Overall, this episode was a rich exploration of the independent bottling world, filled with personal anecdotes, insights into the whiskey selection process, and a celebration of the community that surrounds this beloved spirit. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed having this enlightening conversation with Josh and Jason from Single Cask Nation. 00:00:00 - Introduction to EmbellishPod 00:00:47 - Meet the Guests: Single Cask Nation 00:01:06 - What is Single Cask Nation? 00:02:54 - Jason's Journey into Whisky 00:05:48 - Josh's Unique Introduction to Whisky 00:07:01 - The Nostalgia of Whisky 00:10:02 - Musical Background: Josh's Passion for Bass 00:11:41 - Jason's Love for Pool 00:12:51 - Daily Drinkers: What They Enjoy 00:15:15 - Exploring Independent Bottling 00:21:02 - Selection Process for Casks 00:25:51 - Disagreements in Selection 00:29:07 - Challenges of Independent Bottling in the U.S. 00:34:54 - Maintaining Authenticity and Trust 00:40:02 - The Role of Social Media 00:42:04 - Community Building through Social Media 00:49:36 - Final Thoughts on Social Media

Artisanal Spirits Company CEO Andrew Dane tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the company specialises in the creation and sale of exceptional, limited-edition whiskies and related experiences globally. Its primary operations are managed through a subsidiary, the Scotch Malt Whisky Society, with recent expansions including the launch of JG Thomson in 2021 and the acquisition of a new independent bottling business, Single Cask Nation, in the US earlier this year. Artisanal Spirits Company procures whiskies from over 150 Scotch malt whisky distilleries and additional spirits from 20 countries, maturing and bottling these under their brands. The company sells these products exclusively to its global membership, which has surpassed 40,000 members. Members enjoy exclusive purchasing rights and access to member rooms in the UK and partner bars worldwide, enhancing the whisky experience. Marketing strategies vary by region, leveraging digital platforms, affiliate programs, and gifting, particularly in the US during Father's Day. Dane emphasized the enjoyment of whisky over investment, offering bottled casks for personal consumption. Membership growth, a key indicator of revenue potential, increased by 10% last year, contributing to an 8% revenue growth. He said the company explores new markets through a franchise model, transitioning successful franchises into subsidiaries as seen in Australia and Taiwan. Currently, opportunities in Vietnam, Brazil, India, and Nigeria are being considered. The recent acquisition of Single Cask Nation in the US aims to further penetrate the American market, exploiting the minimal overlap between their respective audiences to target the American whiskey segment. #ArtisanalSpiritsCompany #Whisky #ScotchMaltWhiskySociety #JGThompson #ScotchWhisky #LimitedEditionWhisky #WhiskyTasting #GlobalWhisky #WhiskyMembership #SingleCaskNation #ProactiveInvestors #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Iain är tillbaka och har med sig den stora lådan plåster ifrån Islay och vi berättar om Glencairnglasets ganska unga historia. På menyn står två riktigt häftiga Islayrökare ifrån Copper's Choice, Caoil Ila 11yo och Laphroaig 15 yo, där Laffen verkar lagrats med en otrolig mängd plåster. Dessutom så är det dags för Islays första romdestilleri, en irländsk blend med rötter från 1800-talet och exklusiv single-cask bonanza ifrån Single Cask Nation!

Very happy to have Joshua Hatton as my guest. Joshua is the co-owner of Single Cask Nation, an Independent Bottler of fine spirits; a member of the Keepers of the Quaich; and.... a Jew! So that gives us an opportunity to talk about what that means in White Christian America: how anti-Semitism got its start (believe it or not, it started with the Semites) and why it still persists as the hidden evil that undermines cultures worldwide . And also, he picks out a hidden beauty from my shelf...its Scotch, but not the kind you're thinking of. Leave it to him...
Scott and Matt have a great remote conversation with Josh and Jason from Single Cask Nation. If you are fans of Single Cask Nation, you will love this episode. If you have never heard of Single Cask Nation, you will love this episode.
Nowadays is difficult to discuss anything without pointing out the elephant in the room: Covid-19. Joshua and Jason decided "why ignore the elephant in the room? Let's discuss Covid-19 with some recent guests to see how it's affected their whisky-work and life. The boys discuss all this with previous guests: Iain Robertson of Raasay Distillery, Alistair Walker of the Alistair Walker Whisky Co (Infrequent Flyers), Holly Seidewand of Bacardi, Scott Harris of Catoctin Creek Distilling Co, and Jess Lomas of Single Cask Nation. 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!

Joshua and Jason have known the good Alistair Walker for years -- all the way back when he was with the BenRiach Distilling Company and they had just started Single Cask Nation, asking him if he would sell them casks (which he eventually did in the form of a 17yo peated BenRiach). You see, the shoe is on the other foot now... Since the sale of BenRiach, GlenDronach, and Glenglassaugh FROM the Walker family TO Brown-Forman, Alistair has opened his own whisky company, the Alistair Walker Whisky Co, with the focus on one major thing: Independent Bottling under the "Infrequent Flyers" label. Let's listen in as Jason and Alistair discuss this very thing. So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

Not a lot is known about the world of independent bottling. The process, where companies buy and bottlle single spirit casks for resale, however, is exemplified by the people behind Single Cask Nation. This five year old company, which was born out of the blogs of its founders, has bottled some of the rarest and most delicious whiskies in the world. Once an online only shop, co-founder Jason Johnstone-Yellan joins us in the Society to launch the new retail line with some delicious and very, very old whiskies.--What we drank:Cambus 28Inchmurrin 20Craigellachie 17Undisclosed 9 Year Old Islay Scotch--Follow us:spiritguidesocietypodcast.comfacebook.com/spiritguidesoctwitter.com/spiritguidesocinstagram.com/spiritguidesochttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoO-l4Ny3QJn2Mc7445qMrg--"Samba Isobel" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
Joshua and Jason have been to the Wild Turkey distillery four times now. Each time the two were there they got to spend time with the inimitable Eddie Russell, son of the one and only Jimmy Russell, and father to today's guest, Bruce Russell. While taking Joshua and Jason through Warehouse A to pick some casks for Single Cask Nation (and casks they do pick! two of them to be specific), Bruce talks to the boys about his family (and not just his dad and granddad), learning to write tasting notes with his dad, Jimmy Russell's palate, his own hatred for the word "smooth" (we KNEW he was a good lad!), and Bruce answers, too, questions from Facebook.So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in.

Our second live podcast recording! This time around we're in New York City at the 7th annual Whisky Jewbilee. The boys, in front of an audience of 40 people, have a conversation with Justin Fornal and Chad Anderson (two of the three swimmers of The Great Islay Swim), and Simon Brooking (remember him from Season 2, Episode 7?) of Beam Suntory. The topic? Well, if you must know, The Great Islay Swim and the bottling Single Cask Nation is releasing to commemorate the swim! So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in.

Look at us surviving yet another, our 7th annual, Whisky Jewbilee NYC! What better way to put the event behind us than to discuss it here on One Nation Under Whisky? Not sure that's how it all works but we had fun rehashing the events of the evening. Add to this is that full and final details on the Single Cask Nation / Hello From the Magic Tavern "Stones of Stenness" whisky collaboration are revealed.

You, dear listener, may remember in last week's episode that we mentioned the 2nd half of episode 15 would be posted in one week? When we make a promise, we keep that aforementioned promise! Today we take a tour of Bruichladdich distillery with Raymond Tibbs, share the details of a VERY exciting new Single Cask Nation release, and, Joshua and Jason get a little emotional.

A slightly irregular episode: Joshua finds himself all alone as Jason remains in Scotland to spend time with his family. What does Joshua do when left to his own devices? Release some audio footage (Hmmm, is there such a thing as audio "footage"? There is now!) from a cask selection session that he and Jason recorded back in April. You, dear lucky listener, get a peek behind the curtain into Joshua and Jason's cask selection process. Also, newsflash, John Glenn did not walk on the moon.

On the eve of their annual NYC Whisky Jewbilee festival, your faithful hosts Steve & Ben invite Single Cask Nation's Joshua Hatton and Jason Jonstone-Yellin into the Beast Lair for a private barrel showdown. Single Cask Nation is a private bottler. They bring two of their all-time favorite whiskies. Beast Masters Club brings two of our favorites and the audience decides. Special guest judge: Robin Robinson.
Who knew spending time with a bourbon legend could be so amazing? (rhetorical question, really.) April 4 found Joshua and Jason in the company of the one and only Eddie Russell of Wild Turkey Fame. Eddie, now 36 years into his life with the distillery, spent a disproportionate amount of his time with the Joshua and Jason (more time than they could have hoped for). Together the boys selected two casks of Wild Turkey Bourbon for Single Cask Nation and have a great in-depth conversation with Eddie.Have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving.

It begins… These two gladiators have been called to search ceaselessly throughout Caldeonian moors, crags, islands and bogs, accepting no limits and yielding to no obstacle placed in their path, all for the glory of a sacred mission - to find the best smoky malts in the world and bring them back to the Beast Lair in the hopes of becoming CHAMPION of the Smoke Wars. Few have been chosen, but only one will prevail… In our first battle of the Smoke Wars, Mrs. Smoky Beast faces off against Joshua “Big Wood" Hatton of Single Cask Nation and Whiskey Jewbilee. In this contest each will present two smoky malts each to the Beast Masters for judgement. The first round will be a malt under £100, the second round a malt over £100 with no price limit. Who will be able to claim title as the first Champion of The Smoke Wars? Listen and all shall be revealed.
Beast Masters Ben & Steve sit down with Josh Hatton from Single Cask Nation. Josh is about to launch a line of single barrel malts, the first Single Cask Nation bottles available in liquor stores. Josh specializes in finding special casks, often from distilleries that would normally only produce products used in blends. By showcasing some of these hidden gems in his single barrel SCN bottlings, Josh is bringing a fresh perspective to scotch whisky.
Beast Masters Club sits down with Joshua Hatton, founder of Whisky Jewbilee and Single Cask Nation, as well as brand expert for Impex Beverages. Impex is the importer of Kilchoman, the first new distillery on Islay in over a hundred years. Josh scored us a small allocation of a very limited release Kilchoman. A cask strength version of their Machir Bay single malt bottled in celebration of Kilchoman's East Coast American Tour.
In this episode of The Whisky Guy Podcast, Episode #8: Jason and Joshua of the Single Cask Nation, tasting Russell's Reserve and more! The post The Whisky Guy Podcast #8 – Jason and Joshua of the Single Cask Nation appeared first on The Whisky Guy.
There was a changing of the guard at Ireland's Midleton Distillery this week, in addition to the housewarming party for Midleton's massive distillery expansion. Brian Nation officially replaced Barry Crockett as Master Distiller for Ireland's largest distillery, and it's the first time in almost 70 years that a Crockett family member won't be at the distillery. We'll meet the man charged with carrying on the legacy of names like Jameson, Power, and Crockett on this week's WhiskyCast In-Depth, and get the details on the distillery expansion in our news update. There's also word on this year's special releases from Diageo, and Fred Laing tells us about the new Douglas Laing's Old Particular range of single cask bottlings. In this week's tasting notes, there's a little-known Irish whiskey from Midleton, Glen Grant's Five Decades single malt honoring longtime Master Distiller Dennis Malcolm, and a new Dalmore bottling from Single Cask Nation.
Utah's High West Distillery & Saloon crams a craft distillery and high-end restaurant into two historic buildings in the ski resort's downtown area. James Dumas, a James Beard Award-nominated chef and partner in High West, takes us on a tour of the distillery for this week's WhiskyCast In-Depth, and it's often hard to tell where the distillery begins and the restaurant ends. Dumas didn't learn to appreciate what whisky offers until he started working with High West founder David Perkins, but now, he's a complete convert, as he showed us during the tour. In the news, Tomatin takes top honors at the Whisky Fringe for the second year in a row. We'll also have the latest on new whiskies from Tullamore Dew, Single Cask Nation, and a new series of Jameson bottlings...along with a reason to skip the duty-free shop if you're flying on Ryanair.
Joshua Hatton and Jason Johnston-Yellin started out as whisky bloggers, and are now bottling their own whiskies for a unique audience. Single Cask Nation and the Jewish Whisky Company are on the leading edge of a growing trend in the whisky business...targeting the unique and growing niche market of Jewish whisky lovers. While there's no clear consensus on what makes a whisky kosher, Single Cask Nation is bottling both kosher and non-kosher whiskies and letting each person make their own choice. In the news, a tanker truck full of whisky crashes and catches fire in New Jersey, The Glenlivet discloses the details of Alpha, and George Washington's Whiskey is now being made in New York as well as Virginia.
