Donald & Alexander Johnston, Ian Hunter, Bessie Williamson, Iain Henderson, John Campbell, Barry MacAffer – quite an illustrious round of people – and all of them special for Laphroaig in their very own way.
And today’s episode is about Barry MacAffer, who has spent the best part of 13 years working at the distillery and who has now decided to leave Islay, Scotland, the UK and even Europe to start a totally new adventure in South Korea.
We had the chance to talk to Barry right at the end of his time at Laphroaig and met a very thoughtful, reflective, open and also entertaining Barry and we felt like we really had a chance to get to know the person behind the role of being Laphroaig’s distillery manager.
Barry took us along on his journey through the whisky world, starting with growing up on Islay, going through various roles at Laphroaig and now moving on to a totally new endeavour halfway around the world.
His memories and anecdotes from along the way make this a wonderful podcast episode and with it, we are quietly saying goodbye to a man who will surely be missed on Islay a lot. But to say it in Barry’s words: “It’s never a goodbye, it’s always ‘see you later’.”
