  • Season 8 Ep 20 -- On the road to Ardnamurchan for a behind the scenes tour with Carl Crafts!
    Nov 13 2024

    Joshua, Jason, and Jess -- the 3 J's -- are all together in Scotland and are on the road to Ardnamurchan to meet with Carl Crafts (Sales Executive) and Al (Distiller) for a very behind the scenes tour at the Ardnamurchan distillery. It's not too often folk have a chance to get through to a distillery so we thought we'd share a virtual experience with you.

    We'll go through each step of the whisky making process at Ardnamurchan and then end with some fantastic cask pops in the warehouses! Finally, distillery tour aside, the 3 J's share details of their final online bottlings for 2024 launching Nov 21st!
