Distillery managers come and go at Lagavulin, but Iain McArthur is a fixture at the legendary Islay distillery. McArthur\'s something of a legend himself after 44 years as the warehouseman at Lagavulin and previously at Port Ellen, and the native Ileach followed his father and grandfather into the whisky business. We\'ll go peat cutting with Iain at his family\'s bog and sit down with him for this week\'s WhiskyCast In-Depth. Back in August, Scotch Whisky Association chief executive David Frost told us it would take "a pretty good offer" to lure him back into government service. The offer came, and Frost\'s sudden resignation to become a special adviser to British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson tops our news this week. We\'ll also have details on R\\xe9my Cointreau\'s latest move in the whisky business, Templeton Rye\'s commitment to distilling in Iowa, and a "write-in" ticket that could bring unity to this year\'s US presidential race.
