Mike & Duncan host the Honest to a Malt podcast fueled entirely by whisky and laughs! Podcast may include slightly dodgy impressions, singing and the odd rap.

New episode alert! Mike & Duncan host Alex Munch, Co-Founder of Stauning Whisky.
Expect gratuitous chat about smoky whisky, and did a cask ABV actually go up?! We get a bit of a scoop as we hear about life after the separation from Diageo.

Our latest The Spirits of the Underground Collection is about to arrive. The ballot for our latest release opens tomorrow!

Four new single malt, single cask London whiskies - each as distinctive as the iconic stations they celebrate.

What have been your favourite releases in the series to date?

The world's two top whisky investigative journalists (cough cough) on a press trip to the outer edges of Edinburgh, to try some old, old whiskies, in a proper old building.
