Whiskey to Whisky

These are two big hitters when it comes to peated scotch. They are both reasonably priced for what they deliver. We highly recommended both of these single malts. 

We continue this peat series with another two W2W recommended single malts form Islay. 

We go right to the top of the peat bombs list with this episode. As far as we know, Octomore is the heaviest peated single malt scotch available. Does it live up to the price tag and hype? 

We kick off this peated series and set the bar pretty high with these two Ledaigs from Tobermory. We also discuss the peat part of the whiskey wheel.   

We try some hard-to-get Wild Turkey bourbons in this episode, and they do not disappoint. 

We're back! Joelle and I list the whiskeys that stood out to us last year. We also do a mini review of a great limited-edition bourbon, Woodinville. 

Took a little break and we're back. This is a Rye highlight. I learned something about Rye in this one. These were two great whiskeys!

We try two rare whiskeys that we chanced appon. The Wild Turkey 13 is meant for the Japan market and the W.B. Saffell is allocated. 

We get into two flavor bombs here. We also go a little long and the recording cut right before we were finished. 

We have two solid bourbons here. MGP does it again. 

We're back with another special episode focusing on Ben Holladay Bourbons. Also, we haven't talked about whiskey in a while so of course the conversation vents off a little whiskey steam. 

We have a special cork-pop episode of two, special release, blended bourbons. They were great! 

We have an insightful conversation with the owner of Cat's Eye Distillery. As whiskey heroes go Gene Nassif is on our list. We also talk about Whiskey label rules in Japan. 

As usual, Joelle brings out a hidden gem of a low-end bourbon. Also, we get into a solid, high proof, independently bottled Tobermory single malt scotch. Both of these we highly recommend looking out for.

The American Single Malt frontier gets explored a little further with Defiant. Also, Joelle drops a bomb of a single barrel bourbon for his high end! 

Another high and low end whiskey. Joelle finds a steal of a budget bourbon. Let's go. 

Ever wonder about M&H Single Malt Whiskey out of Isreal? We check it out and a unique honey barrel finished bourbon from Nulu. 

Were back to the mainstream Whiskeys and find a surprise with Chatanooga bourbon. Also, we continue our open letter to Cambeltown. 

It is always surprising when you come across a whiskey that pushes out the boundaries of what Whiskey can be. We wrap up this odds and ends series with a real banger of a bourbon. 

Only a few more left of our odds and ends series. These two Whiskeys are out of the ordinary, but they work for us. 

We try all three from this series, the high Rye straight Bourbon, the Rye and the Wheated Bottled-In-Bond Bourbon. 

More odds and end whiskys to taste and talk about. 

It's been a big year in Whiskey...

Pokeno from New Zealand and Ardbeg's Fermutation from Islay round out this weeks odds and ends. 

J. Henry is one of Wisconsin's treasures! Here are two, hard to find, whiskeys that we loved. 

We continue with our odds and ends series with a rare bourbon and an unheard of malt. 

As master blending, old school rap loving, bourbon tasting machines go, Dixon Dedman is one of the best. Today we highlight some of his latest work. 

We continue with our odds and ends series with two great, rare whiskeys. 

We have too many odds and ends that we are going to take a break from high and low for a time to highlight some whiskeys that just can't wait for the sweet spot to develope. To kick it off, these are two store picks from the online liquor store Seelbach's. 

We pit them against each other to compare the differences. We ran out of time again on this episode but we pretty much said all we wanted to say... 

This Evan Williams SB is one of the best low end whiskeys around. Grab it while it's still in your state. Also, this E.H. Taylor is not too bad either. 

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society and Balcones this ones for you. 

We try another Total Wine direct scotch and a one of a kind bourbon from NY. 

Blended bourbons, let's go!

We are trying to figure out Balcones. We go the distance here at Whiskey to Whisky. From a low end to a really high end Bardstown, one by one we'll get to them all. 

Sometimes the low end really surprises us. Keep an eye out for this one! 

Another high and low-end whiskey review. We also discuss some of the proposed rules by the ASMWC the American Single Malt Whiskey Commission. 

We go off on a few tangents on this one. It's always a surprise when you revisit a bottle of whisky that you got into and then put away for a year. Another classic high and low episode.

Here we go with another high and low end whiskey. We do something new and something old with one of Joelle's favorites. We added on to this episode so stay to the very end.

We're back at it with a high and low end whiskey. Sometimes it's surprising how good a low end whiskey can be. The price to quality ratio plays a role in the rating system and it shows in this episode. 

We taste 4 Rye's that are fairly common and pick what order we like them the most.  Rittenhouse 100 Knob Creek Rye 100 Wild Turkey 101 Rye Old Forester Rye 100 This was an eye-opening experiment. 

We review a classic, go-to, Pennsylvania style Rye, Rittenhouse Rye. Grab a bottle if you make Manhattans. Also, this Angels Envy was a real surprise! This is a unique Rye that is well worth keeping an eye out for. 

We really like Pennsylvania style Rye and this one is a great example! Don't overlook Old Overholt Rye. We also get into a classic single malt from Deanston. This is one of the highest value 15-year malts. 

Is the Game of Thrones special release worth it? We find out. Joelle brings a big hitting Rye from Jack Daniels. 

We take a break from the usual and present to you two one of a kind blends. 

Were back at it with another high and low end whiskey. This is the older red (2018) lable Redbreast. 

It has been a year of discovery for us. We each go through our runners up and aslo name our top pick for 2022. Thanks everyone for joining us on this journy. 

From the ever present Total Wine Spirits Direct Whisky to a lesser known stellar Bourbon, there is a lot packed into this episode. 

We are rambling on pretty late at night on this one. No review, just had to vent about the high price increase. If you like this sort of thing here you go... 

We're back at it with two Whiskeys. Keep an eye out for Colkegan it's a one of a kind malt. 

Covid strikes again...
