Well we're here, we're on time and it's our birthday. Caskheads is 3 years old (and a day) when this episode dropped, which is great because if we were in Scotland, if we were a distilled malt spirit and if we had been made matured and bottled meeting SWA regulations, we'd be a whisky. In this episode we talk about Hazelburn which is a triple distilled release by the Springbank distillery in Campbeltown. We discuss the two most important events to have happened in 1997 (Sorry if you were born then, but I think we all agree it goes: Lost world Jurassic Park, then Hazelburn being released for the first time, after that fight amongst yourselves). This episode marks the end of season two for Caskheads but we will be back for season 3 soon.
Finally we review not one but two Hazelburn whiskies, the standard 10 year old release alongside the 2023 12 year old Oloroso sherry cask release and although I forgot to thank them in the episode, thank you to the Springbank distillery for making this whisky.
For those who enjoy our caffeine addled minds' creations I should also mention we have a second podcast which is fictional (or is it?) named GNSradio where an infinitely shadowy mega corporation with seemingly limitless amounts of money close to hand moves into a small town and slowly takes over. If you think it sounds fun or just want to shut me up check it out check out GNSradio now wherever you get your podcasts from or check out the teasers on here.
