What type of scotch might a bourbon drinker like? That is the question I set out to answer when I put together my "Scotch Madness" series on my media channels. In this episode, I discuss what I learned from the series while doing a full review of Glenmorangie's Quinta Ruban 14 year old single malt scotch, aged in bourbon and port casks.

I don't know if any Irish whiskey has been recommended to me quite as much as this one. Green Spot is a Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey aged in bourbon and sherry casks. Guest Noobs Zack and Bryce go through a very in depth review of this spirit with me, and we finally put to bed the question we've been asking for a few episodes now: Do you need to use a glencairn for whiskey?
