From the Founder Golf and whiskey have more in common than you might think. Both are steeped in tradition, demand patience and precision, and, above all, are best enjoyed with good company. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or just discovering the game, a whiskey connoisseur or a curious newcomer, this magazine is your guide to the finer things in life—on the course and in the glass. At the heart of this journey is GolfCask, a creation born from my lifelong love of golf and a deep dive into the world of whiskey. As a passionate coach with over 30 years in the game and a certified Bourbon Steward, I’ve spent years refining both my golf swing and my palate. GolfCask is the result—a fusion of fairways and fine spirits, where humor, craftsmanship, and camaraderie come together. In this issue, we explore the rich history and influence of the five main legacy distillers, breaking down what makes their whiskeys stand the test of time. We’ll also take a deep dive into the art of drinking whiskey—how to nose it, taste it, and truly appreciate every sip. Most importantly, this magazine is about the journey. The journey of learning, tasting, exploring, and sharing. Whether it's finding your perfect putting stroke or discovering the subtleties of a single barrel pour, we believe both whiskey and golf are lifelong pursuits, meant to be savored and refined. So, pour yourself a dram, tee it up, and join us on this adventure. Welcome to GolfCask Magazine —where every round is best enjoyed with a story and a sip.
