Xtreme Tasting League: Scotch

Ken’s back for a short episode wherein we sample Grangestone Rum and Ardbeg Kelpie.

Dave and I are joined by our old friend Ken Merriman to sample the Wolfburn and Loch Lomond’s Inchmurrin Medeira.

Paul and Steffen return for the mid-August episode and sample the Benriach 12yr and the Laphroaig Select. Just guess which one we like more.

Returning guest Paul von Stoetzel and first-time guest Steffen Moeller join us for an independent bottlers episode wherein we sample a Signatory Edradour 11yr and a Battlehill Bladnoch 22yr.

Carly returns and suffers through the Highland Park Ice and Fire with us. Seriously folks, none of us liked these and with their price point, unless you 1) are a huge HP fan, 2) really want the bottles for display, or 3) have more money than taste, we advise you to steer clear.

Our friend Carly joins us to sample some American single malts (Westland Peat and Defiant) in honor of July 4th.

Sorry we’re late with the show posting, but we’ve been preparing for CONvergence!

Ian returns and we sample the Longrow Red and Tomatin Manzanilla.

Ian Bryan, the “crappy genie” spoken of on the High Five Guys podcast, joins us to sample the Edradour distillery’s Ballechin Bordeaux and Glenfiddich’s Experimental Series #1, an IPA finished single malt.

Fearless Comedy Productions member and producer of the new original show, Anxiety! The Musical, Becci Schimdt, joins us for Mortlach Rare Old and Benromach 22yr Port.

Ryan Alexander joins us at OmegaCon for Glen Scotia Victoriana and Highland Park Sigurd.

May the Fourth be with you!
