Time to travel down under to Australia, where fall has turned into
winter, and it's whisky season. 15 years ago, Bill and Lyn Lark started
Australia's first malt whisky distillery on a lark (pun intended).
Since then, they've produced the Southern Hemisphere's first peated
single malt whisky, and helped spawn a series of distilleries that have
put Australia on the whisky map. In the news, new whiskies from Isle of
Jura, Templeton Rye celebrates a "quasquicentennial", and a lack of
rain in Lynchburg, Tennessee has the folks at Jack Daniels nervous.
