A Slumping Market for Scotch Whisky?

from WhiskyCast · host Mark Gillespie/CaskStrength Media

The Scotch Whisky Association released new export data this week showing a second straight year of global sales declines, with a softening economy and tariffs getting much of the blame. We'll go through the numbers with SWA chief executive Mark Kent on WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, another new report this week says one in five Scotch Whisky distilleries is in financial distress. Crown Royal avoids a boycott in Ontario, and there's no change in the receivership at Uncle Nearest.
