The Philip Duff Show
The Philip Duff Show
#83, Iain McPherson, owner, Panda & Sons, Hoot the Redeemer, Nauticus, Edinburgh.
The Cocktail Panda himself comes on The Philip Duff Show!
I've known Iain for years - he entered the G'Vin Gin Connoisseur Program which I used to run - and he's built a mini bar empire in Edinburgh so it was time to catch up on his adventures guest bartending for his uncle in Korea, celeb liquor, how he got his start in the bar business and what he'd do differently now, plus how he got famous for inventing new ways to create flavour.
(We also drank some seriously odd stuff; I had a gin martini followed by the only liquor left in our Spanish apartment the night before flying back to NY, which turned out to be Tom Zyankali (of Zyankali Bar in Berlin)'s Zyankali Falernum, which was 50% abv(!). Iain countered with a Metaxa brandy with sweet vermouth. )

(PR friends: we’re only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things than their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is, for a few hours.
They need to be able to hang.
Oh, plus we don't edit, and we won’t supply prepared or sample questions, or listener or “reach” stats, either.)
