Hi John

On a whisky forum we've been debating a question on which we'd like your views: would you say that some individual grain distilleries make grain whiskey with individual recognisable character ?

I know you appreciate casks of well matured grain whiskey, and those from Cambus in particular (if I remember well some comments on your site). But from the many casks of grain you've sampled, do you make a difference between individual grain distilleries ? Do you have some favourites ? And if so, do you think it is due to the character of the spirit they make (their distilling technique) or to their wood management policy (the quality of the casks they use to mature their spirit).

All the best

Yves

Hi John !

hope this finds you well !

At first, i wanted to say you that i'll never forget this wonderfull trip to Chiswick that we took with La Maison Du Whisky in June ... it was fantastic ! Thanks again for everything.

* sipping one Eleuthera *
(i like it ! maybe because i'm clynelish addicted ...)

So

let's begin with the questions ...

is it true that you're the Paul Michael Glaser's son ?

ahaha

euuuh no

Is it difficult to get cask samples from the distilleries (kind of long distance runner effort)?
I suppose that you're a kind of "mini-competitor" when you ask samples to Diageo's distilleries (mean that they do their own blends).

Have you ever tryied an Irish-scotish blend ?
(Or a Scotish-Irish-Japanish-Usa ish-Francish-Indianish one)

Can you explain us what was the problem with the SWA when you launched the Asyla (blend or vatted ?).

Hello John,

Heu.. Je vais écrire en français, désolé:)

pouvez-vous nous dire pourquoi le nom des distilleries qui composent le Flaming Heart est tenu "secret"? Bien que sur votre site compassboxwhisky.com on y trouve quelques renseignements:

Distillery Sourcing: Single malts from the villages of Port Askaig (Islay) for the smoke & peat, and Brora and Longmorn for the richness and spice-fruit complexity. Aged up to 16 years.

merci!
