December 28, 202414: 2024 Whisky In Review
It's been quite the journey for me over the past year...okay really mostly the past six months but we're going to do this anyway! I go over everything I've learned about my own palette and preferences covering types of Whisky I like through to glasses I use. Most importantly I list off my favourite Whiskies for under $100 AUD across the four types of Whisky I've sampled the most in 2024.
With John Chidgey.

December 23, 202413: Bushmills Red and Black
Having reviewed the 16 year Single Malt on Episode 2, I was curious what the entry level Bushmills blended Whiskies were like. When visiting the USA in September 2024, I nabbed a gift pack of the Original, Red Bush and Black Bush samplers that I brought back home. I start with a post-review of the Original then try both the Red and Black Bush to see which, if any, are worth your time.

December 20, 202412: Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Bourbon
The Kentucky Spirit is an 8 year aged, apparently, Bourbon from my favourite Bourbon Distiller...Wild Turkey. It was this Whisky ironically, that kicked off my recent journey into Whiskies. I review the Spirit and also touch on what makes a Bourbon, a Bourbon.

December 15, 202411: Tomintoul 16 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Having tried the 10 year last episode, I dive in and check out the 16 year to see if it's worth the extra money. Additionally I look at all of the Scotch regions, why they exist and whether or not you should pay any attention to Scotch Region definitions at all.

I try a lightly Peated Japanese Whisky that was the first Japanese Whisky I'd tried at the time. Despite my misgivings about Peated Whisky, I give it a good go and the score might just surprise you.

I try the entry level Jameson Original Irish Whiskey after finding a 200mL bottle on a throw out bin. Was it there for a reason? I begin to wonder, but let's try it anyway. Also discuss the phenomenon of a Neck Pour and bottle headspace.
