Bonus: Rare Benedictine Tasting


Listen Later

Eric tastes through several rare and vintage Benedictine Liqueur expressions, alongside friends and colleagues from the spirits industry at the 2025 American Distilling Institute International Spirits Competition.

In this recording, he's joined by:

  • Mr. David T. Smith (who generously provided the Benedictine samples from his personal collection) and who is the head steward at the ADI competition

  • Joe Barber from Stargazy Spirits (who, for the first time, had a functional microphone for one of these recordings)

  • Author and Spirits expert Eric Zandona, who runs the International Spirits Competition

  • Reece Sims, founder of Flavor Camp, representing Canada

  • Aaron Knoll, creator of The Gin is In, my favorite gin review website

  • Sara Sargent of Alpine Distilling, one of the award-winning-est distillers I know

  • And Vanessa Piromallo, the 2024 World Drinks Awards Icons of Gin Communicator of the Year

The Benedictine expressions we taste through in this sitting are:

  • Your standard, straight-up, run-of-the-mill, but still ICONIC Benedictine

  • Vintage Benedictine (likely from the 60s or 70s)

  • Benedictine and Brandy (AKA B&B)

  • Benedictine 1888 (a special, premium Blend)

  • Benedictine Single Cask
