This week, we are still joined by Jarad Coats as we continue our exploration of the world of peat! For our second part, we take a look at distilleries using peat beyond it's traditional home in Scotland, talk about the world's growing affection for peat's distinctive flavors, and talk about about why that newfound passion might have an outsized impact on the climate!
