The Spirits Guide

As St. Patrick's Day approaches, I took the opportunity to celebrate the spirit of Ireland by tasting the 4 basic, but most important Irish Whiskies. Im also talking a little bit about the history of this sometimes under appreciated spirit. I also share some good and bad customer experiences. There is also an Irish themed book i recommend.

This weeks episode is a few days late and definitely a few dollars short, but hey, better late than never. After some creative stifling, snow affected schedules, and a possible concussion I finally sat down to record. Taking inspiration from one of the dumbest days of the year, the St Patrick's Day parade, I taste through some Irish Whiskies while talking about the holiday, my bar experience on parade day, and mentioning some movies and music for you St Pats festivities.

This week I fell in to a Rabbit Hole. First, about a myth of who invented vodka, and it being at the perfect proof point. Then that lead to a Rabbit Hole about what proof actually means. And somehow it all tied in to the spirits industry had already planned to taste. Oh ya, and I finished another convoluted TV series.

This past weekend was Valentines Day, and its a pretty dumb holiday. So it got me thinking about what the 5 dumbest holidays are that we observe. But in keeping with the Valentines theme, I am tasting 4 decadent spirits. Also, there is also a little talk about vinyl not always being the best format to hear music on.

This week is was fully prepared to talk about the trash, hatchet piece, "unauthorized " Anthony Bourdain biography, Down and Out in Paradise. Then, a stop the presses moment happened when one of my favorite Bourbon brands , Four Roses, got sold to the Gallo Family. So, this week I am sharing my thoughts on the sale while drinking some Four Roses. Then I taste a new Gin while getting to the trash book.

I reallly do appreciate when people reach out to me about the podcast. This week one listener reached out which a thought that sent me spuraling down a rabbit hole. If the question of what is the song is valid, then what is the definition of the band when it changes members. So i grabbed a couple of hard to define whiskies, and pondered how to define things, and more so why do we always have to define things. This one was fun for me.If you like what I am doing here go to the podcast page and click the follow button and give it a rating.
