So this week, while talking about some of my favorite books, music and spirits from the last year, I am also tasting 2 of the new limited release Single Barrels from Four Roses to decide if they are worth buying.

December 09, 2024Fair Market ValueHello beautiful people. The silly season is in full swing, and this year seems to be a bit more crazy. So, on this episode I am tasting through some High Rye Jim Beam Bourbons, mostly known as Old Granddad, while talking about the outdated and ridiculous concept of MSRP, to which I give explanations of and offer solutions too.

September 23, 2024Bourbon Heritage Jim BeamAfter last week's "whisper" episode, I'm hoping this week sounds better. This week I am talking about one of the absolute best Bourbon distilleries, Jim Beam. I also play a recording of Mr Van Winkle talking about protecting the quality and "prestige" of a brand, that I think is a part of the problem of the Bourbon world. All while drinking some Beam made Bourbons. I had a lot of fun with this one. if you like what I am doing here go to the podcast page and click the follow button and give it a rating.
