Your hands called. They’re tired of saving your short game. 😂⛳

When your chest stops helping, your hands start improvising—and that routine chip becomes an adventure.

In this Deeper Cut, Brian Bailie breaks down the four runners of the short game and a Dustin Johnson-inspired drill to help you feel your chest’s role in the motion.

Give your hands less to rescue. Your scorecard might thank you.

Three whiskeys. One cigar. Four opinions. Absolutely NO LABELS.

Welcome back to No Labels by GolfCask, where the GolfCask Syndicate puts its palates—and reputations—on the line.

The challenge? Three mystery whiskeys paired with one mystery cigar. No brands, no prices, no preconceived opinions. Just the aromas, flavors, smoke, and plenty of questionable decisions.

This episode takes us through three very different pours:

🥃 Yellow Spot 12-Year Irish Whiskey – A beautiful Irish whiskey, but did the cigar completely overpower it?

🥃 Willett Straight Rye – A surprisingly smooth pairing that sparked a debate about what makes a great whiskey-and-cigar combination.

🥃 Blind Preacher from Virginia Foothills – A craft bourbon that had the Syndicate reconsidering its rankings.

🔥 The Mystery Cigar: Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario Corojo Toro. One cigar, three whiskey pairings, and a changing experience from first light to final third.

Along the way, we're talking tasting notes, proof, cask strength, cigar construction, and whether our Syndicate experts actually know what they're drinking.

And of course, Beau is missing. We're accepting applications for his replacement.

YOUR TURN, GOLFCASK NATION!

Which whiskey would YOU pair with this cigar? Did the Syndicate get it right, or are we completely off the rails?

One cigar. Three whiskeys. Zero labels.

Welcome to No Labels — Spark & Sip Blind by GolfCask, where the GolfCask Syndicate tastes three whiskeys and smokes one cigar completely blind.

The lineup turned out to be:

🥃 Hannisville Straight Rye — craft American rye
🥃 Wild Turkey Rare Breed — big, bold barrel-proof bourbon
🥃 Lagavulin 16 — one of Scotland’s iconic peated single malts
🔥 C.L.E. Corojo — a Honduran Corojo that became the biggest surprise of the night

The challenge sounds simple until smoke enters the equation.

The cigar pushed around the craft rye. It made 116.8-proof Rare Breed drink much smaller than expected. And somehow, when Lagavulin 16 hit the glass, the team struggled to find the peat.

That’s when we realized the cigar might be controlling the entire game.

That’s No Labels.

No bottle reputation. No fancy band. No expectations. Just your palate—and whatever happens when the smoke and whiskey collide.

GolfCask Nation, now it’s your turn.

Give us a pairing to test on the next No Labels—one cigar and three whiskeys. Bourbon, rye, Scotch, Irish, craft…make it as ridiculous as you want.

Drop your combination in the comments.

Because apparently, we’re just dumb enough to try it.

🔥 Light it.
🥃 Pour it.
🚫 No Labels.
Trust your palate.
