BS & Bourbon Atl's podcast

We made a trip down to  Americus, Ga to meet the great folks at 13th Colony Distillery.   We were able to discuss the history of the brand, upcoming releases, and current offerings with Maxwell, President, and Graham the Master Distiller.  The hospitality was out of this world and a trip we will make again.  Pay close attention to the tasting of the 2023 Double Oaked and the 13 yr Rye coming to you soon.

We finally got our hands on some George Remus Repeal V (5 for us in Merica).  We are fans. Enjoy!

A few weeks back we were abe to pick a fantastic bottle of something most have never heard of, ASW's Red X.  All I can say is be prepared to have your minds blown.  Justin came up with something special with this one.  Well I say we, Bob wasn't there so he is getting the opprounity to taste the lineup today. 

Today we discuss different marital and parenting strategies with Greeze.  Enjoy and maybe get learnt a thing or three.

On our way up to pick #pouroneforgeorge2, we stop off to stay the night with Greeze and record a show while pregaming for the next day. 

Today we sit down with Justin Manglitz, Master Distiller, and Whit Hagemann, Assistant Distiller, from ASW to introduce them to those of you that may not know them.  Sit back and enjoy.  These are great people that are apart of a great local brand that we want to support.

***Special Release***

Today Bob and James taste some C+S Mayor Pingree bottles from some of our friends. We originally thought we would be blinding 3 ryes, but Bob has issues with reading comprehension and we ended up blinding 2 ryes and a bourbon.  If you haven't sampled any Mayor Pingree, you might want to try soon. 

We are talking about things coming soon, amongst other things going on in our life.  BS & Bourbon Linktree https://linktr.ee/BSandBourbon.ATL

Today we are joined by Beth Burrow, the American Whiskey Ambassador for Beam Suntory.  We have a love of Jim Beam products and get to try a new one for us.  Legent (pronounced LEE-JENT) is a first-of-its-kind super-premium bourbon that brings East and West together, melding Kentucky distilling tradition with Japanese blending excellence.  Legent is a masterful collaboration between two celebrated whisk(e)y legends; expertly distilled by Fred Noe, seventh-generation Master Distiller of Jim Beam, bourbon's pioneering family, and artfully blended by Shinji Fukuyo, fifth-ever Chief Blender of Suntory, the founding house of Japanese whisky
