In this introductory episode, I talk about the show and what you can expect from it, and then spend some time talking about why people typically get involved in the hobby of drinking whiskey.

If you've been a whiskey lover for a long time and just want to know what this podcast is all about, then this is for you, too!

In this episode, my guests, Will and Tyler of the Viewer Regression Advised Podcast, review two single malt scotches with me. These whiskies are from different regions of Scotland, giving them very different flavor profiles. We get to see the vast difference between a peated Islay Scotch and a Highland Scotch whisky. Finally, we review Glenmorangie 10 year and Laphroaig 10 year single malt scotch whiskies. 

Redwood Empire is an up-and-coming distillery in Northern California, known best for their core line up of Lost Monarch Whiskey, Pipe Dream Bourbon, and Emerald Giant Rye. In this episode, Master Distiller Jeff Duckhorn and Head Distiller Lauren Patz walk us through the creation of the distillery, the ins and outs of their distilling process, and the flavor profiles of their core line up. We even get to taste and discuss their new Bottled-in-Bond whiskeys, Grizzly Beast and Rocket Top.

The battle of two great Single Pot Still Irish Whiskeys: Redbreast 12yr and Green Spot. In this episode, my guest Noob, Bryce, and I walked through a a blind tasting of these whiskeys to see which we liked more. As is often the case with blind tastings, we learned a lot about complexity, flavor profiles, and our own personal preferences.

I specialize in tasting whiskey, but there is another spirit with a very similar tasting culture that folks like to talk about this time of year (just before the 5 of May) - tequila of course! In this episode, Doug Price of the Agave Social Club walks us through a tasting of mezcal and tequila, and we talk a bit about how similar the culture is to whiskey - it is all about the art, the good spirits, and the great people. If you aren't sure what type of tequila or mezcal you might want for this Cinco de Mayo, or if you love whiskey like I do and want to try something a little different, then this episode is for you!
