7 min - #128 Bermúdez Anejo Especial
Bottle #128 is Bermúdez Anejo Especial. Bermúdez was founded in 1852 and is the oldest rum distiller in the Dominican Republic. This was one of my trickier bottles to research, but was very rewarding in the end as found some really great 1970s advertising.

4 min - Tasting Ouzo with Apostolos
I went all the way to Greece to taste Grandma’s two tiny bottles of ouzo with a local. Apostolos was the perfect guest, sharing his family stories of ouzo, talking about its production, and offering up an experienced palate for exploring Bottle #20: Boutari and Bottle #49: Ouzo by Metaxa with me. (Note: Apostolos talks fast - if you're having a hard time following, there's a transcript on the website!)

In this episode I tell the history of how the Havana Club brand, how it became the name that Cuban rum is marketed by all over the world today, and how my Grandma in Canada might have ended up with a bottle.

6 min - Tasting Babycham with Farah
I knew that I’d need a British woman of a certain age to taste Bottle #14: Babycham with me, and my friend (and 1980s barmaid) Farah Mendlesohn turned out to be the perfect guest. At only 4.2% ABV I didn’t have a lot of hope that this one would taste anything like it did when it was bottled in the late 1970s, but I won’t spoil you here – check out the video or the transcript to find out all about that. I hope you’ll also enjoy our fun and fascinating conversation about gendered drinking in the 80s and the role and meaning of Babycham within that context.

15 min - #126 Dark Eyes Vodka
It’s January of 1942. The US has recently entered World War II. And Clear Spring Distilling Company, a Jim Beam subsidiary, has just released a brand-new product. It’s called Dark Eyes Vodka, and Bottle #126 is Grandma’s tiny bottle of it. Hers is from the 1980s. But World War II was really influential on vodka’s ascendancy in the United States, and echoes of that kept coming up as I researched this tiny bottle, and I dive into that fascinating history in this episode.

8 min - Tasting 70s Smirnoff & 80s Courvoisier with Keith Waldbauer
In this episode I'm joined by Keith Waldbauer from The Doctor's Office in Seattle. He explains why he's the best person to taste vodka with me, and then we sample a very interesting tiny bottle of 1970s Smirnoff. Then I make that experience up to him by opening up a Courvoisier VS from the 1980s.

9 min - #125 Cinzano Orancio
It's a little bottle of orange vermouth, Cinzano Orancio from the 1990s. So of course I had to talk about the thing everyone needs to know about vermouth, as well as talking about the history of the Cinzano brand.
I only touch the surface of the history of vermouth, here's an amazingly comprehensive article all about that.

7 min - Tasting SnoShoe Grog with David M. Perry
My guest, David M. Perry, is a medieval historian and journalist who's published books and articles all over the internet. But I called upon him for his other expertise - Minnesotan outdoorsman - to taste this bottle of 1980s Phillips SnoShoe Grog. We talk about the joys of fishing, why ice fishing doesn't cut it for us, and then taste this bottle of peppermint schnapps mixed with brandy.

8 min - #124 Dimple Scots
Known as "Pinch" in the US Dimple Scots has a lot of things going for it. Super cool looking bottle, awesome history from one of the oldest names in Scotch, and James Bond and Walter White. What's not to like? Find out all about it in this episode.
