Podcasts about blind barrels

On the first of a two part series, we get the opportunity to talk with Bobby DeMars of Blind Barrels, the first and only double blind whiskey tasting experience. We chat about the bespoke spirits tasting box, being screwed by Father's Day orders, filling bottles in a basement with a funnel, the power of the distributors, highlighting rockstar whiskies, the ills of the three tier system, kissing a bunch of frogs, whiskey wizards, why you can't drink whiskey all day, a healthy and mindful approach to whiskey, the communal aspect of whiskey, you know there's a problem when you have floor whiskey, putting up accent walls and baking bread, the greatest life hack ever, wading through the red tape, differences between chimps and monkeys, The Kansas City Mob, and putting 6-8 years of whiskey knowledge into a tasting.  Support Us On Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/DrepandStone We'd love to hear from you! https://linktr.ee/DrepandStone Don't forget to subscribe!

Welcome to the latest edition of Old-Fashioned Football! JMark and Mir are joined by the hosts of the Sports Gambling Podcast, Sean and Kramer. Two favorite pastimes, whiskey and sports, come together for a unique event—the Whiskey Battle Edition. In this exciting episode, hosts of Old-Fashioned Football and SGP dive into the intricacies of whiskey tasting. All while reminiscing about collegiate sports with former USC defensive lineman Bobby DeMars, now the founder of Blind Barrels. Join us as we embark on a spirited journey through whiskey and sports.The Blind Barrels Whiskey BattleThis special episode explores the world of whiskey through Blind Barrels. Blind Barrels curates a quarterly subscription service delivering blind taste-testing kits of curated craft American whiskies. Bobby DeMars unveils the concept behind further engaging whiskey enthusiasts with a unique competitive element—a Whiskey Battle. Participants are challenged to identify whiskey types, proofs, and ages, adding a gamified edge to the tasting experience.The LineupIn this episode, our hosts and guests venture into a blind tasting session comprising four select samples from the "Heat" lineup. Each pour showcases American craft whiskey distilleries, offering varying complexities and flavor profiles.Sample A: A surprise to many, this whiskey from Louisiana's JT Melon impressed with its caramel and spicy undertones, unveiling itself as a rice whiskey—a treat for the adventurous palate.Sample B: Bringing in flavors of banana and herbal tea, this whiskey tricked several into thinking it was a lighter drink, only to be revealed as a potent, high-proof example of bourbon from Ben Holladay.Sample C: A complex myriad of fruity and spicy aromas, the Rock Town whiskey excited the senses with its long finish and notes of cinnamon toast, solidifying its place as a standout craft selection.Sample D: The finale, hailed for its smooth leather and cigar box outlines, offered a sophisticated tasting experience, genuinely embodying the high-proof category with a surprising subtlety.The CompetitionThe gamified tasting spurred lively competition among podcast participants, testing their ability to discern specific whiskey characteristics based on their sensory observations. Despite the competitive spirit, fun and camaraderie underscored the experience. In the end, Ryan Kramer narrowly won the battle by a hair, showing a knack for hitting close to the mark with his guesses.Reflections and RevelationsAs the episode unfolded, the discussion expanded beyond the tasting notes. The guests spoke of their personal experiences with whiskey tasting. Bobby shared tales of college football and highlighted the significance of the craft whiskey scene. Blind Barrels emerged as an enriching curation of whiskey culture. They offer enthusiasts access to distinctive, hard-to-find bottles that extend beyond a mere tasting.ConclusionThe Whiskey Battle Edition was more than just drinks and games. It was a testament to the exploration of flavors and friendships born of shared interests and spirited camaraderie. Whether you're a seasoned whiskey lover or a curious newcomer, Blind Barrels encourages everyone to embark on their unique whiskey journey. Kits such as those offered by Blind Barrels promise an adventure in every sip.Visit BlindBarrels.com and consider signing up for a remarkable experience that brings celebrations and spirits to life.

If you've listened to us for a while, you'll know that we love tasting whiskey blind, because it challenges your palate and knowledge in ways you never thought possible. However, it can be a pain to set up, and you still know the set of whiskeys you're tasting, even if you don't know the order. But that's where CEO Bobby DeMars and his company's tasting kits come in. They've done all the hard work for you, and they invite you to not only decide if you like the whiskeys but also guess what the whiskeys are: mash bill, proof, age, etc. Then, via QR code, you can find out well how you did, and even buy a discounted bottle of what you liked. So, will our vast whiskey experience allow us to predict the four whiskeys we'll be tasting? Or will we fail in predictably spectacular fashion? Press play and find out!

Tonight I am joined by my friend Bobby Demars of Blind Barrels. Blind Barrels shines a light on craft distillers by releasing completely blind samples from small distilleries to consumers in order that they can really analyze the samples without the influence of the brand, this is followed up by education and the revelation of the brand. Bobby and I dive into his experiences, some spirituality, conspiracy theories and more. The conversation closely mirrors the type of conversations I find myself engaged in in the distilling industry post events or barrel picks and I think you will enjoy it too. Thank you as always for your support. We have lined up some high caliber guests for the coming season. I certainly don't see trying to make a career of podcasting and Im not even attempting to monetize my work here, but I would like to see it become successful. My definition of success with this show is the number of listeners who would really appreciate this content as much as I do, so if you can do me a favor and like, subscribe, and leave a comment on the episodes I would really appreciate it. Moreso, if you could share the episode with friends and family via social media and e-mail or with links on relevant web-sites I would be eternally grateful.

Bob DeMars is the founder of Blind Barrels, a blind whiskey tasting subscription disrupting the industry's current distribution model by showcasing American craft distilleries, ones which rarely get the shelf space they deserve. The recent quarantine brought about blind whiskey tastings with friends, and DeMars saw an opportunity for a startup unlike any other in the alcohol industry. These blind tastings are all about discovery, education, removing brand bias, and, of course, supporting smaller distillers that are making some amazing handmade products. Each quarter, subscribers get to test their senses by tasting and discovering hard-to-try-or-find craft whiskey brands - ones that deserve to be discovered.In This Conversation We Discuss:[01:17] Intro[02:16] Understanding the appeal of whiskey samples[03:12] Exploring the stages of whiskey tasting[05:13] Navigating the three-tier system regulations[06:49] Raising funds through friends and family [07:49] Handling startup stress and responsibility[09:00] Leveraging influencer partnerships effectively[10:46] Learning PR pitfalls and self-promotion[12:08] Launching the business & attracting subscribers[13:23] Overcoming initial tech hurdles[14:20] Learning the tasks before delegating[16:28] Multi-channel touches for brand conversion[18:08] Episode sponsors[21:21] Focusing on qualified traffic before CRO efforts[22:19] Avoiding affiliate fees with strategic gift codes[23:27] Unexplained SEO boosts in industry niches[24:34] Micro influencers for brand saturation & sales[25:36] Evaluating micro influencers by genuine engagement[27:38] Managing inquiries directly for brand credibility[28:28] Creating connections with whiskey box shipments[29:20] Hosting events with interactive whiskey giveaways[31:30] Finding joy in simple whiskey moments [32:02] Discover Blind Barrels & support local distillers[33:18] Balancing sales with community building online[34:01] Keeping investor energy through consistent updates[35:47] Valuing hard lessons during difficult timesResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeBlind whiskey tasting subscription blindbarrels.com/Follow Bob DeMars linkedin.com/in/bob-demars-975bba5Book a demo today at intelligems.io/Done-for-you conversion rate optimization service storetester.com/If you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

In this Episode, Alex is BACK...FINALLY! We are also joined by Darren Peck & Michael Sergeant of Morris Australian Single Malt. Which we have to say is absolutely AMAZING! This is a really fun episode about a brand you are going to want to know more about!Established in 1859, the Morris family winery is one of the most acclaimed fortified producers in the world.Craftsmanship in blending, ageing and creating world-class fortified wine has been passed down through six generations of the family, allowing MORRIS to truly master the creation of extraordinary flavour in Australian single malt whisky.The unique and distinctive MORRIS whisky flavour comes from unrivalled access to fortified wine barrels for finishing the whisky, barrels which have held the world's most highly awarded fortified wines.  In 2016, the distillery was built around the original copper still built in the 1930's and installed at the Morris winery in 1941.Today, we combine decades of tradition, our heritage still and ancient fortified casks with contemporary techniques to create a whisky that is a true expression of time and place.Check out our sponsors!The Bourbon Ball - The second annual Bourbon Ball benefiting Folds Of Honor will take place June30th & July 1st at Castle & Key and The Kentucky Castle. The Castle  & Key Event will be June 30th from 5:30-8:30 at Castle & Key Distillery. Castle & Key will be doing  an exclusive VIP tour and behind-the-scenes bourbon tasting with Brett Connors, Head Blender and Whiskey Wizard, and Murray Harwich, Guest Experience Assistant Manager and E.H.

Forgive us friends, we had about 10-12 barrel proof pours before we did the show. :)291 Colorado Whiskey is a globally acclaimed, small batch whiskey nestled in the shadow of Pikes Peak. Located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Michael Myers, a former New York City fashion and beauty photographer, with a love of whiskey and passion for the old west, aims to replicate the taste, smell and folklore of that time, to create a one of a kind, bold and beautiful, Colorado Whiskey.Myers, no stranger to whiskey or the West, set out to create a flagship whiskey that evoked the Wild West. He grew up on rural family farms in Georgia and Tennessee, across a countryside defined by rolling hills, horses, Jack Daniels and George Dickel. For decades since then, he carried with him an iconic vision of walking into an old west bar, saying “give me a whiskey”, and the bartender slamming down a bottle– that bottle would be 291 Colorado Whiskey.Check out our sponsors!The Bourbon Ball - The second annual Bourbon Ball benefiting Folds Of Honor will take place June30th & July 1st at Castle & Key and The Kentucky Castle. The Castle  & Key Event will be June 30th from 5:30-8:30 at Castle & Key Distillery. Castle & Key will be doing  an exclusive VIP tour and behind-the-scenes bourbon tasting with Brett Connors, Head Blender and Whiskey Wizard, and Murray Harwich, Guest Experience Assistant Manager and E.H.

In this episode of Bourbon With Friends. The guys are joined by Company Founder and Master Blender Jason Brauner. We try 4 delicious versions of Buzzard's Roost and one of them ends up being one of the top 10 rye's we've ever had!Since opening Bourbon's Bistro in 2005, Jason has had an active single barrel program allowing him to work side-by-side with many of Kentucky's leading master distillers. Through those relationships, he not only has gained a tremendous amount of knowledge but also garnered the respect of those distillers.  Jim Rutledge says: “If I could pick an understudy for J.W. Rutledge Distillery when it gets going it would be Jason. That is how much I respect his passion and his palate”. The knowledge gained through these distillers combined with his overall passion for the industry grew into a desire for Jason to go from just selling whiskey to making whiskey.Kentucky Eagle INC. - Kentucky Eagle is growing and in need of talented people with a passion for wine and spirits.

Bobby Demars is the Founder of Blind Barrels - a blind whiskey tasting subscription, the first to create disruption of the industry's current distribution model by showcasing American craft distilleries. Top 3 Value Bombs: 1. Find a place to park your problems. Address yourself why you're stressed. Are you chasing what others want to see in you or what you want to see in yourself? Comparison is the death of joy. 2. Redefine your success. Check in on how you feel and the people around you feel. That should be the benchmark of your success. It's the happiness you create for others and for yourself. 3. Overcoming obstacles is difficult. Managing it with your mindset before you take the risk will allow you to deal with these ideas, obstacles, and stresses that automatically come with your business.
