A brief return from our hiatus, lured by the opportunity to interview cricket great Sir Ian Botham about his new winemaking venture, Botham Wines.Celebrity-branded drinks have had a chequered history, to say the least. Look no further than Shane Warne's ill-fated forays into wine (Shane Warne Collection) and craft beer (99 Not Out).It was for this reason that I approached the launch of Sir Ian Botham Wines with a healthy scepticism.But Sir Ian is deadly serious about his new career, as he was at pains to stress when we caught up the SCG for a quick interview.He has spent over 40 years playing and commentating on international cricket. During this time, he has travelled the world and off the field, spent time nurturing his other passion; wine.The new range of Sir Ian Botham Wines were made working closely with Australian winemakers, including Nick Badrice, Chief Winemaker at Dorrien Estate in the Barossa, Marty Edwards, Head Vigneron at The Lane in Adelaide Hills and his old friend, Geoff Merrill of Geoff Merrill wines.The wines also bear homage to Sir Ian’s legendary sporting career, from design – stumps and cricket balls feature on the labels – to the names of the individual wines.I hope you enjoy this short chat with Sir Ian ahead of Drinks Adventures' return to normal programming in 2019.All other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can contact me here.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

We're going out with a pop in this final episode of Season One of the Drinks Adventures podcast.Yes, this week we're delving into all things champagne in Australia, where it's fair to say we absolutely love our champagne.Despite our small population we are the world’s sixth largest champagne market, with the biggest consumption per head of population outside Europe, and our imports of champagne have grown tenfold since 2001.First up this episode, I take a look at the Vin de Champagne Awards, a uniquely Australian award organised on behalf of the Comité Champagne, which represents champagne houses, growers and co-operatives of the Champagne region in France.This year was the 43rd edition of these awards and in a short documentary, I speak to several personalities involved in these awards, which seek to discover Australians who are truly passionate about champagne, so much so that they are prepared to put their knowledge about champagne to the test.Next up is a short stand alone interview with renowned wine writer and champagne expert Huon Hooke of The Real Review, who's been somewhat outspoken about what is, in his words, Australia's boring taste in champagne.He talks about how you can spend just a little bit more to get your hands on some champagne that is a bit more complex and interesting.And we also discuss the rise of Australian sparkling wine, which continues to win global recognition for its quality.Last up is an interview with Hervé Dantan, who is chef de cave at Champagne Lanson, one of the largest champagne houses.We talk about what makes champagne unique, what makes Lanson unique and the upcoming launch in Australia of Clos Lanson, a single vineyard champagne.Thanks for your support during Season One of the podcast. I hope you'll join me again in the new year when I embark on Season Two.I'd also like to thank Dave Robertson and Matt Brown, who have each assisted with mixing some of the episodes in this season.And thanks to Asad Rizvi AKA Silverlining for the use of some of his awesome music in the documentary section of this champagne episode, as listed below.Tracklisting:Doodlebug - Loose in your mind (Silverlining Remix)Silverlining - DevotionSilverlining - Ni-Cd DeluxeYou can listen and purchase Asad's tunes on the Silverlining Dubs bandcamp page.All other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can email me at hello@drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

This week on the Drinks Adventures podcast, we foray into cider and some of the ancient traditions associated with the annual apple harvest.William Smith & Sons is one of the oldest family businesses in Tasmania's Huon Valley. Founder Willie Smith planted the first tree in their apple orchard in 1888 and fourth generation family member Andrew Smith is the current orchardist, responsible for taking the farm organic in the late 90s.And in 2012, drinks marketer Sam Reid partnered with Smithy to launch Willie Smith's Cider, putting apples that are not good enough to sell to very good use.They've continued to evolve Willie Smith's over the last few years with the introduction of heritage apple varieties to their orchard.Most of the ciders made in Australia that are actually made from real apples are made using the same varieties of apple you would find in your local supermarket, which is the equivalent of making wine from table grapes.There's been a few cider makers that have pioneered the use of proper cider apples in Australia but arguably it's been Willie Smith's that's brought this evolution of cider to the fore, with its multiple wins of Best In Show at the Australian Cider Awards, most recently in the last few weeks with the single variety Kingston Black Cider.Willie Smith's has also introduced to Australia the ancient ceremony known as 'wassailing' at its Huon Valley Mid-Winter Festival held annually in July. I went down this year to find out what it's all about.Thank you to all the bands who performed at the festival and gave me permission to use their music in this episode: 8Foot Felix, The Dead Maggies and Vulgargrad.Congratulations to Jeni Port who I spoke with last week and was subsequently awarded the Wine Communicators of Australia 2018 Legend of the Vine Award for Victoria, recognising her contribution to the wine industry as a journalist and a critic over many years.Look out for some bonus content in the podcast feed over the next few days featuring Sam Reid of Willie Smith's.You can find all previous shows, show notes, transcripts and links to lots of related information on the podcast website drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Music tracklisting for this episode:8Foot Felix - Mad IsleVulgargrad - Oy Yo Oy8Foot Felix - Q Town8Foot Felix - Whales PreludeThe Dead Maggies - Black MaryThe Dead Maggies - Tommy PiemanVulgarGrad - Super GoodTheme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

On this episode I explore the changing face of Australia's most iconic winery, Penfolds Wines.Penfolds Wines has today – Thursday October 18th, 2018 – officially launched The Penfolds Collection, its family of top wines led as always by Grange.It's been a massive few months for Penfolds, which in July announced the somewhat surprising plans to begin making wine offshore, being Penfolds-branded champagne in France and also wines in California's Napa Valley region.The other big announcement on the same day was the launch of Penfolds Special Bottlings, a new series of limited edition, unique products inspired by the pioneering nature of founders Dr. Christopher and Mary Penfold.Now the first two releases are not table wine, or even wine – at least as you or I know it. They are Lot 1990 - a single batch brandy that was distilled and put into barrels in 1990, and Lot 518 – a Shiraz-based wine fortified with the Chinese spirit baiju.These special bottlings have ushered into the limelight veteran fortified winemaker at Penfolds, James Godfrey, who I spoke with in the Barossa Valley earlier this year.It's a fascinating chat about fortifieds, which accounted for the vast majority of wine produced in Australia up until the 1960s. While they may be somewhat out of fashion, they remain among the greatest wines produced in Australia today.But first, we're talking table wine, and not just any table wine. That's a very common and offhand way to refer to The Penfolds Collection – 21 extremely high quality wines that start at $40 and range up to the 2014 Grange, which is now an incredible $900 on release.Penfolds held a pre-release tasting of these wines in late August, which I attended along with wine writer Jeni Port, who has been tasting and critiquing Penfolds Wines for many years.I caught up with Jeni for a chat about The Penfolds Collection 2018 this week.All other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can email me at hello@drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

This week on the Drinks Adventures podcast, I'm talking Australian whisky with Starward Whisky founder David Vitale.Founded in Melbourne in 2007, Starward is undoubtedly the leading Australian whisky brand from a volume perspective, thanks to David's ambitious strategy of pursuing larger scale production from the very beginning.This has meant that Starward has been able to offer its range of high quality whiskies at pretty affordable price points.They commonly sit under the $100 mark in contrast to the routine pricing upwards of $200 a bottle that you see from most other Australian distillers.With David, I discuss this pricing differential and other challenges for Australian whisky, as well as his decision to relocate to North America to develop it as an export market.We also touch on Starward's recent expansion into distilling gin, which I remind David is something he said they would never do.And lastly, the company's entry into bottled cocktails with the launch of the Starward New Old Fashioned.All other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can email me at hello@drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

This week on the program, I play an extended interview with Janice McDonald, Gourmet Traveller Wine Magazine's 2018 Winemaker of the Year.Janice is chief winemaker at Burch Family Wines in Western Australia, where she oversees the Howard Park and Mad Fish wine brands using grapes sourced from vineyards in the Margaret River, Mt Barker and Great Southern regions.Prior to that, she ran her own Margaret River wine label Stella Bella to great acclaim, together with her partner Stuart Pym.But we're not just talking about wine today, because Janice has been making beer for just as long as she's been making wine.She worked as a brewer at Australia's original craft brewing company, Matilda Bay, in the 1980s, and then at Little Creatures in 2000, its first year of operation. And she still brews today - if you've ever visited the Settlers Tavern in Margaret River Town and had one of the beers under the Margaret River Ale Company label, that's Janice's handiwork too.All other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can email me at hello@drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

What is the difference between gin and flavoured vodka? That should be an easy question to answer.But some of the drinks industry's older heads have voiced concern that gin without juniper berries, or lacking in juniper character, is on the rise.Among them is Hayman's Gin, which recently launched the Call Time On Fake Gin campaign.Says the distiller: "Recently we have started to see some producers marketing gins that have little or no evident connection to juniper. While botanical innovation and experimentation has long been linked to gin’s success, we believe that a small number of producers are today creating spirits that have strayed too far from what makes gin 'gin'."Sipsmith Gin co-founder Fairfax Hall is another distiller who has taken up the fight against gin without juniper.Drinks Adventures caught up with Fairfax for a chat about all things gin in Sydney earlier this year.All other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can email me at hello@drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.

If you haven't yet discovered the delights of Japanese sake, now is the time to add it to your drinking repertoire.Cast aside any preconceptions you may have of that cheap and nasty stuff served hot in Aussie-Japanese restaurants.Premium Japanese sake is every bit as rich in heritage, sophistication and complexity as fine wine, and it is a superior match for many cuisines.Australian visitation to Japan continues to increase and with that, growing numbers of us are looking to enjoy fine Japanese food and drink on our return.The increased interest in Japanese sake has driven the growth of exports to Australia, which is now the second fastest growing market for Japanese sake worldwide.Eighteen sake breweries recently participated in a sake showcase and masterclass in Sydney organised by Japanese trade authorities, attended by the local restaurant trade.Drinks Adventures attended to find out a bit more about what makes sake unique. We spoke with leading sake brewers and local champions of Japanese sake including Yukino Ochiai of De Ja Vu Sake, Melbourne restaurateur Andre Bishop and Sakeshop founder Leigh Hudson.Music credits:Cameo Culture - SandboxCameo Culture - FrancoisHigh Highs - Glamorous Party (Cameo Culture Remix)Bad Snacks - MizukiAll other Drinks Adventures episodes, show notes, transcripts and many helpful links are available on the podcast website, DrinksAdventures.com.au, and you can email me at hello@drinksadventures.com.au.Follow James Atkinson on Facebook here, Instagram here and Twitter here.Theme music ‘Sandbox’ by Cameo Culture.
