Send a textWe catch up with Tracy and Barb Napolitano as they lay out the biggest upgrades to New Orleans Bourbon Festival, from a new self-contained downtown venue to a rooftop Grand Tasting with sweeping views of the city and the Mississippi River. We also dig into the dinners, ghost tours, VIP judging, seminar lineup, and the barrel picks that support charity while keeping the whole weekend easy to navigate on foot.• new downtown venue that keeps tastings, seminars and hotels close• rooftop Grand Tasting setup with a full outdoor atmosphere• Britannia Theater seminar experience with comfortable seating and service• French Quarter ghost tour ending at Oddfellows Rest Cemetery• Dark Arts tasting in the cemetery as a true New Orleans twist• VIP judging experience and what makes it special• brand and distillery presence including Four Roses, Sazerac, Michter's, WhistlePig, Barrel, Penelope, Proof and Wood, Old Carter and more• why the festival prioritises passionate whiskey people over empty booth pours• awards judged by real bourbon fans and everyday drinkers• Friday and Saturday seminar schedule highlights including cigar pairings, women's panel and next generation panel• barrel pick reservations through the festival website with festival pickup only• charity focus behind bottle sales and how proceeds are handled• ticket timing for dinners and ghost tours plus remaining festival ticketsA bourbon festival can be big and still feel close knit, but only if the layout, the people, and the programming are built with intention. That's why we sat down with Tracy and Barb Napolitano to get the real plan for this year's New Orleans Bourbon Festival, including the biggest change yet: a brand-new downtown venue that keeps the weekend together and walkable.We talk through what that actually means on the ground. The Grand Tasting moves fully outdoors to a rooftop overlooking the New Orleans skyline and the Mississippi River, while the seminar track shifts into the Britannia Theater for a true sit-back-and-learn experience with comfortable seating. We also hit the event schedule: VIP judging, brand dinners, late-night meetups, and the kind of after-parties that make New Orleans the perfect backdrop for a whiskey weekend.Then we get into the line-up and why it matters. You'll hear which distilleries, blenders, and personalities are coming, plus why this festival leans into independent and craft whiskey alongside heavy hitters like Four Roses and Sazerac. We also break down barrel pick reservations, the no-shipping rule, and how bottle proceeds support charity. And yes, we cover the ghost tour that ends with a Dark Arts tasting in a haunted cemetery, because New Orleans is going to New Orleans.If you're planning a bourbon festival trip, want the best bourbon seminars, or just love whiskey travel stories, this one is your blueprint.

Send a textNot many people can say they've founded a bourbon distillery and run one of the world's largest whiskey programs. Kaveh Zamanian isn't most people. A prolific whiskey brand founder and former Chief Whiskey Officer at Pernod Ricard, Kaveh built Rabbit Hole Distillery from a creative vision into a brand compelling enough to catch the eye of one of the world's biggest spirits companies, and when Pernod Ricard came calling, he didn't just take the deal, he took the wheel, going on to lead their whiskey program at the highest level.In this episode, Kaveh reveals what it really takes to build a bourbon brand with a creative mindset: from the founding principles behind Rabbit Hole Distillery, to the realities of being acquired by a global spirits giant, to how he architected a portfolio strategy that balanced heritage and innovation. We explore the surprising link between whiskey and human psychology, his approach to brand building that goes beyond the liquid in the bottle, and the leadership lessons learned from running one of the industry's most storied whiskey programs.Featured Guest:Kaveh Zamanian, Founder, Rabbit Hole, Mary Dowling, and Mash & Mallow Whiskey CompaniesMentioned in this episode:Rabbit Hole DistilleryMary Dowling Mash & MallowPernod RicardWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief takes the ride with Dina Coker, founder of Lythgoe Bourbon, and Steffani Scheurich, the brand's Master Blender. Together they dive into the story behind a bourbon brand that is bold, confident, and completely unapologetic—just like the woman who inspired it. Lythgoe Bourbon draws its spirit from Gertrude "Cleo" Lythgoe, often called the Queen of the Bootleggers during Prohibition. Cleo was known for her fearless personality, sharp business mind, and refusal to play by anyone else's rules. That same unapologetic attitude lives inside every bottle of Lythgoe Bourbon today. The episode begins with Pauline's Victory, an 8-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon bottled at 90 proof. Elegant and balanced, this pour sets the tone for the first half of the conversation. It's refined yet confident, delivering classic bourbon notes with a smooth character that invites you to slow down and appreciate the craft behind it. As the glasses empty, Dina and Steffani talk about building a brand that honors the rebellious spirit of Cleo Lythgoe while celebrating the women helping shape the modern whiskey world. In the second half of the show, the crew pours the Founder's Collection, a 9-year-old four-grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon. With both rye and wheat in the mash bill, the whiskey creates a unique balance where sweet and spicy notes dance together in the glass. The wheat softens the edges while the rye brings the spice, creating a layered bourbon that highlights Steffani's artistry as a master blender. It's a conversation about history, bold women in whiskey, and the unapologetic spirit that built this brand from the ground up. Pour yourself a glass, sit back, and Take the Ride with Big Chief on this week's episode of The Whiskey Trip.

DescriptionWhat does it take to build an organic, grain-to-glass distillery in the heart of the White Mountains? In this episode of the Bourbon Lens, we sit down with Chris Burke, co-founder and master distiller of Cathedral Ledge Distillery, to explore the intersection of organic distillation and historic standards.Chris pulls back the curtain on the "Bottled-in-Bond Act" and explains why this 1897 quality standard is the backbone of their production philosophy. We dive into the complexities of organic grain sourcing, the nuances of their mash bills, and how their specific maturation environment in New Hampshire creates a flavor profile you won't find in Kentucky.You'll learn about the technical side of barrel selection, the importance of seasonal labeling, and how Cathedral Ledge is navigating the challenges of direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales and legislation. From the first drop of the hearts to the final tasting notes, this conversation is an essential guide for anyone interested in the transparency, entrepreneurship, and artistry behind modern American whiskey.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Cathedral Ledge Distillery06:13 The Importance of the Bottled-in-Bond Act13:25 Maturation and Barrel Selection in the Northeast18:48 Crafting Unique Whiskey: Mash Bills & Process25:33 Marketing Strategy & Direct-to-Consumer Sales33:17 Tasting Preferences & Favorite Pours

Sometimes you just need to chill. Sometimes you need chili. Thats what this Episode is all about. We go deep into the whole in's and out's of how to make chili and Going to Andalusia Whiskey co. Hope you enjoy.

A sip of whiskey can "pick up" the capsaicin, providing temporary relief before redistributing the heat, which can lead to an "explosion of flavor" as it releases aromatic oils from the spices.Flavor Amplification: Higher alcohol content (ABV) acts as a flavor carrier, intensifying the perception of heat and making the spicy sensation last longer on the palate.The "Burn" Synergy: Both chili and whiskey provide a "warming" sensation. The heat from the peppers and the "burn" from the alcohol can create a combined sensory experience that many find satisfying.Pairing StrategiesBourbon for Balance: The natural sweetness, caramel, and vanilla notes in bourbon help temper the heat of a spicy chili, acting as a counterweight to the spice.Rye for Intensity: Rye whiskey often has its own peppery, spicy profile, which can be used to "double down" on the heat of a very spicy chili.Scotch for Smokiness: Peated Scotches have a smoky, earthy character that pairs well with the charred flavors of roasted peppers or smoked meats often found in chili.Irish Whiskey for Smoothness: The smoothness of Irish whiskey makes it an excellent partner for milder, bean-forward, or even creamy white chilies.Cooking BenefitsMany people also add whiskey directly to their chili recipes.Deglazing: Using whiskey to deglaze the pan releases caramelized sugars from the meat and vegetables, adding depth and preventing burnt flavors.Finishing Touch: Adding a splash of whiskey near the end of cooking provides a "spark and a lift," maintaining the spirit's character and adding unique depth to the stew.Here is a robust recipe for Bourbon Beef Chili that uses whiskey to deglaze the pan and add deep, complex flavor.Bourbon Beef ChiliPrep time: 15 mins | Cook time: ~1.5 to 2 hoursServings: 6–8IngredientsMeat: 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20) and 1/2 lb ground pork or Italian sausage.Aromatics: 1 large onion (diced), 4 cloves garlic (minced), 1 bell pepper, and 1–2 jalapeños (seeded and diced).Liquid: 1/2 cup Bourbon (e.g., Buffalo Trace or Maker's Mark), 1 cup beef broth, and 12 oz dark beer (optional).Base: 28 oz crushed tomatoes, 2 tbsp tomato paste, and 2 cans (15 oz) kidney or pinto beans (rinsed).Spices: 3 tbsp chili powder, 1 tbsp cumin, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp oregano, and 1–2 tbsp brown sugar.The "Secret" Boosters: 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce..

Green River is the "Whiskey Without Regrets." In this episode, we welcome back our friend Jason to the podcast and he brought the brand new Green River Wheated Full Proof Bourbon as well as a Green River Wheated Single Barrel Store pick from Liquor Barn. In addition to tasting and reviewing these two bottles, we also incorporated some surprise blinds from the basement and from our community. Green River has been putting out some tremendous stuff so you will definitely want to hear our take on these new wheated offerings. Spoiler alert - this was a the last episode we recorded on a very busy evening so things got a little spirited. --------------------------SocialsIG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupkyFB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupkyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupkyJoin our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcastPartnership(s)Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUPMusic: All the Fixings by Zachariah HickmanThank you so much for listening!

Join us live: Our next live podcast, "Access Louisville: The State of Dining Out," is set for 4 p.m. April 21 at 500 West Jefferson.  Three local chefs are coming on: Noam Bilitzer, of MeeshMeesh, Brittany Kelly of North of Bourbon and Lawrence Weeks of Murray's Creole Pub. We'll talk about issues facing the industry, including food costs, changing neighborhood dynamics and more. Tickets are available here.New apartment and single family home developments around town top this week's Access Louisville podcast. We start off talking about plans to renovate the Hubbuch & Co. Architecture building at 320-324 W. Main Sts. into 14 apartment units. Developers for the project include Lee Weyland, partner at CORE Real Estate Partners, Dean Wilkinson, president of Wilkinson Builders, and Bobby Bailey, founder of Louisville Geek.After that, we chat about plans for new apartments at 11501 Schlatter Road, which is the former site of Valor Traditional Academy. Six permits were filed detailing the construction of five apartment buildings and one clubhouse building at the site. The Valor building looks like a castle, which of course gets us joking around about this actual castle being listed for sale in Charlestown, Indiana.We also talk about a new 61-home development near Downtown Jeffersonville, Indiana and plans for an AirBnB development in Downtown Louisville, called the Colt Club.After a break, we chat about restaurant news, including Papa John's plans to close 300 underperforming locations around the country. We talk about some new bars around Louisville Slugger Field — that gets us on a tangent about speakeasies. And we wrap up the show with a chat about Bristol Bar & Grille, which is closing its Highlands location after nearly 50 years. Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Send a textWe trace Michter's from its 1753 Pennsylvania roots to a Kentucky rebirth built on low entry proof, heat-cycled warehouses, and ruthless quality control.

We trace the line from Shenk's 1753 Pennsylvania rye to a modern Kentucky rebirth, where low entry proof, heat-cycled warehouses, and uncompromising standards define how every bottle earns its label. Along the way, we revisit Fort Nelson memories, the bottle-your-own experience, and the friendships that make great pours even better.We sit with the choices that changed the trajectory of Michter's: rebuilding in Kentucky under Joe Magliocco, tapping legendary guidance from Dick Newman, and empowering Dan McKee and Andrea Wilson to release only what meets the mark. That means small batches around 20 barrels, single-barrel highlights, and the guts to skip the 10 Year when the whiskey isn't ready. We unpack why 103 proof going into the barrel deepens oak sweetness at approachable bottle proofs, and how heat-cycling keeps extraction alive through winter for a rounder mid-palate and cleaner finish.Tasting the 2019 Toasted Barrel Sour Mash brings the philosophy to life: cherry, maple, and toasted marshmallow on the nose; a light-to-medium body that still coats; honeyed sweetness with a snap of pepper; and a dry, medium finish. We also explore how Michter's helped popularize toasted barrel finishing, why age statements don't guarantee balance, and how homage releases like Shenk's and Bomberger's honor Pennsylvania roots while Fort Nelson Select grounds the present in Louisville. The result is a consistent, distinctive profile that collectors chase and newcomers can enjoy without a learning curve.If you love whiskey history, crave insight into maturation choices, or just want tasting notes you can use tonight, you'll feel right at home.

Big wins, tough losses, and spring football officially here in Tuscaloosa

Is the bourbon market hitting a breaking point, or are we just drowning in a sea of average whiskey? Or maybe we're just trying to pick at things because that's what we do! Today's show didn't have a theme other than airing some grievances we see across the bourbon landscape. And the guy who has all the hot takes is Matt "The Colonel" Kusek. Matt never pulls his punches, and today we'll talk about the non-stop barrage of Limited Time Offerings (LTOs) and if NDPs are more exciting now than traditional heritage distilleries. We kick things off with a candid look at the struggle of creating fresh content in a saturated market and ask the tough question, has the rush to release more bottles caused a massive dip in quality? We've seen it in secondary markets because if every release is special then nothing is special. We also dive into the psychology of the "hunt" and why consumer demands are shifting. Matt poses a challenge to the big brands, questioning if they're falling behind while smaller, more nimble players to innovate. And we debate the future of "trophy" bottles like Pappy Van Winkle and whether collectability can survive. If you've ever looked at a shelf of $100 bottles and wondered if any are actually worth it, maybe this episode will tell you it's all psychology. Show Notes: The challenges of producing engaging content in the bourbon industry The current state and originality of limited-time offerings Consumer behavior and the perception of high-status brands like Pappy Van Winkle The impact of non-distiller producers on quality and collectible options Humorous tales from personal barrel picks and bourbon adventures Predictions for the future of collectible and innovative whiskeys Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back to another episode of the Bourbon Road podcast! This week, Todd Ritter is holding down the fort solo while Jim Shannon escapes to warmer weather. But Todd isn't drinking alone at the Bourbon Road bar; he's joined by two fantastic returning guests to celebrate the Bottled in Bond Act. Amsey Wenning, the "Alec Baldwin of the show" from the Frankfort Bourbon Society and Bourbon on the Banks, is back, along with filmmaker Bo Cumberland, the director behind the Frankfort: The Heart of Bourbon documentary. The guys dive into a deep discussion about Bo's recent documentary work. With his Frankfort film approaching 22,000 views on YouTube, Bo shares the overwhelmingly positive response it has received. He also talks about his exciting new series, Forging a Bourbon Legacy, which explores the deep, intertwining roots of bourbon history in Anderson County. Through short-form episodes, Bo is uncovering the fascinating stories of families and figures like the Ripy family, the Bonds, Judge McBrayer, and the history behind Wild Turkey, proving that Kentucky's bourbon history is anything but simple. Amsey also shares some incredible news about the Bourbon on the Banks festival, revealing that the charity-driven event recently distributed over $100,000 to local organizations, with volunteers getting a say in where the funds go. Of course, a Bottled in Bond celebration requires some stellar 100-proof whiskeys, and the tasting mat is loaded with unique and highly anticipated pours: First up is a true dusty: 1992 Old Crow Bottled-in-Bond. This 4-year-old Japanese export delivers a classic bourbon nose with rich caramel and dark colors that defy its age. The guys marvel at its luscious mouthfeel and cherry caramel notes, finding it vastly superior to modern iterations of the brand and proving that the "good Old Crow" was truly something special. Next, Amsey brings a unique bottle to the table: Angel's Envy Cask Strength Bottled in Bond. A rare combination of terms, this 6-year-old bourbon achieves its 100 proof through a lower barrel entry proof and meticulous blending rather than adding water. The crew discovers an intriguing almond and amaretto nose, followed by a soft, fruity palate with hints of green apple, light caramel, and a sweet confectioner's sugar finish that drinks surprisingly gentle. Finally, they head south to sample the Old Dominick Bottled in Bond Tennessee Whiskey. Produced in Memphis, this expression features a mash bill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley. It undergoes the Lincoln County process and is aged in West Tennessee white oak with a heavy #4 alligator char. The result is a bold, earthy pour with notes of dark cherry, sweet pipe tobacco, and a pleasant graininess that finishes with a spicy, white pepper kick. Tune in as the guys sip through these incredible bonded whiskeys, debate the merits of short-form versus long-form storytelling, and share plenty of laughs along the way. Cheers!
