    Hi neighbors! Nox here. As we're winding down, I decided to reach back in the vaults and re-release our 2nd episode recorded January 20th, 2019. I took this episode out because there was just a huge jump downwards in downloads from our first episode to our second, and I knew it was because it was a little sloppy, and the audio wasn't great at all. I didn't know how to properly sound-proof the studio, and Matty was learning which plug-ins to use to make us sound better. We had cheap condenser mics that picked up every noise around us as possible, and I still had concrete floors and walls down there. I did a little post on this episode so it should sound quite a lot better than when it was originally released. Enjoy! Who's on this episode: - Nox - Big Ern - EZ Chris - Andrea A - Travis G - on the knobs and sliders: Matty B - and introducing Izzy the dog Which bourbons: 1) Four Roses Single Barrel 2) 1792 Bottled in Bond 3) Bulleit Frontier Whiskey FAQ's answered for our listeners: - What is bourbon? - What does Single Barrel mean? - What is Small Batch? - What do they do with the one-use barrels when distilleries are done with them?

We compare a bar rail gin and tonic to one that we upscaled a little by adding better quality of the same exact ingredients, and a rum and coke with again slightly upscaled ingredients, and we compare the two against each other to see if it would be worth charging a few extra bucks per drink at the bar. The one caveat is that we used a 3:1 ratio of alcohol to mixers, and some bars just don't do that. In this episode we sample and review gin and tonics made with Karkov Dry London Gin with Schweppes tonic water facing off against Boreal Juniper Gin from Vikre Distillery paired with Fever Tree's Premium Indian tonic water.
