199 Proof: Data Driven Drinking

In this episode Daniel and Marc take two gins from the Bay area and put them against two gins from Oregon.  

In this episode, Daniel and Marc bring 4 Navy Strength gins to the table. Yes, four 57% Alcohol by Volume gins, in a boozy, tight, bracketed competition that leads to several overtime rounds to determine a winner.  3 Howls, Plymouth Navy Strength, Edinburgh Cannonball Gin, and Four Pillars 58.8 Navy Gin square off in the tightest episode to date.

Daniel was out of town, so I decided to take a visit to Corgi Spirits to talk to Leandra Del Pozo and Nate Thompson, two of Corgi Spirits' three full time employees, to learn about distillation.  We cover a lot of ground here, so pour yourself a glass of your preferred tipple, sit back, and enjoy an Afternoon at the Distillery.  Cheers.

We take 4 East Coast Gins and put them head to head against each other to find one winner.  Dorothy Parker, from New York; Bluecoat from Philadelphia; Greenhook Ginsmiths also from New York; and Catoctin Creek from the foothills of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains.  Listen as Daniel makes bad pun after bad pun about some pretty great gin.

This week, Marc takes Brockmans and Uncle Val's against Daniel's Monkey 47 and Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin

On this episode, we bring Tanqueray 10 and Beefeater 24 to the table to compete with The Botanist and Brooklyn Gin.  

Welcome to 199 Proof.  In our introductory episode, you'll hear how Daniel and I developed an appreciation for gin after decades of thinking of it as a perfume-y drink for old folks, and the madness behind Daniel's methods.  Come for the stories, stay for the drinks.
