Whiskey Women

Janet and Blair's plan to have a live event to celebrate the end of season two had to be scraped in light of the Covid19 quarantine. So, in order to keep their social distance and party from home, the whiskey women put their knowledge of each other to the test by playing the "newlywed game" in this special video episode.

"You buy your second bottle of Maker's Mark because of what Bill senior did, but you buy your first bottle of Maker's Mark because of Margie." -- Bourbon Diplomat Frank Crockenberger.

Join the Whiskey Women as we learn about the magic Margie Samuels baked and brought to her husband's bourbon, including its trademark design.

Join the Whiskey Women as they get the inside scoop on the third annual Texas Whiskey Festival from co-founder Michelle Clements!

This Saturday, the Whiskey Women were invited to two very special events and were so excited to share our experiences in this episode...unfortunately, any plans we had were blown away when our night ended under attack by a predator. Join us for a discussion of what happened, an analysis of what we would do differently or the same should it happen to you or someone you know, and a reminder of the two most important things in any situation where a woman is under attack: listening and believing her.

Garrison Brothers is a Texas staple, but don't let the masculine name deceive you. The Whiskey Women enjoy an interview with Distiller Samantha Olvera-Moreno and a tasting with Whiskey Evangelist Alaina Branch.

Bonus episode! Leave the mistakes of last year behind with our favorite hangover cures.

Is there anything to better get in the holiday mood than Christmas music and whiskey cocktails? (Or, better yet, is there anything you need more after a holiday at home than whiskey and music to drown it all out?) Janet and Blair get into the spirit of spirits while trying whiskey cocktails and comparing them to carols.

Creeks and Rivers and Oceans, Oh My! Plenty of brands choose to name their whiskies after the water -- and or songs -- that makes it all possible. Join Janet and Blair on a lazy trip downstream, from Knob's Creek, Rowan's Creek, Old Whiskey River, and Jefferson's Ocean.

What is one to do when NOLA is too far away? Let 73 Distillery bring the 73 Neighborhoods of NOLA to you, of course! The Whiskey Women sit down with co-owner Eileen Bivalacqua and tour guide Candy Trahan to discuss what makes this distillery so special.

Few cocktails evoke a place more than the Sazerac embodies New Orleans. Made of Sazerac rye, peychaud's bitters, absinthe, and a sugar cube, this cocktail is as beloved and emblematic as Bourbon street itself. Janet and Blair sample the best wares available at the famous Carousel bar, Mahogany Hall, and -- of course -- the Sazerac Bar in the Roosevelt Hotel, comparing the various concoctions to other NOLA staples.
