VI SKICKAR DAVID TILL MAAAAALLMÖÖÖÖÖ. Det ska tydligen vara någon whiskyprovning i Malmö så David får väl åka då. Det verkar vara en smula över både Mathias och Jeroens paygrade, om man säger. Eden Mill är ett kul destilleri men hur går det egentligen med deras whisky? Ett litet extra blänk i Davids ögon när han inser att de använt kornsorten Golden promise. Ännu ett rekord är slaget i tävlingsgrenen "anskrämlig förpackning" när vi hälsar THE Glenlivet 55 yo med en avmätt nickning. Kolla istället på 1980-talets Gordon & MacPhail, säger vi bara. Vad var det i glaset? Mathias körde Finlaggan batch strength på 50%.

The Three Whisky gang were together in person live late today, the culmination of an intensive three-day project that we describe at the opening segment of the show. Fortunately John Yoo's office was well-supplied with Maker's Mark and Glenlivet 15, so everything is right with the world. After the opening overture, we get down to business, pondering the "body language" of the body politic as revealed by the grinding presidential campaign that suggests a Trump triumph, and then noting the growing signs of an effective backlash against wokery, starting with the New York Times dumping on DEI. None of us had that on our Bingo card! Listen to the end and you'll hear each of us give our betting market odds on the election. Guess who is the most optimistic and the most cautious!
Zak Kemble and Gavin Linde, both whiskey enthusiasts, recently discussed their shared passion. Zak recounted his initial negative experience with whiskey and his subsequent journey exploring different varieties. Both agreed on Glenfarclas 15 as a favorite, appreciating its balance of accessibility and flavor, while Gavin also highlighted Glenfiddich for its consistent quality and affordability. Their conversation touched on the unpredictable nature of aging whiskey and the risks involved, drawing parallels with the evolving video game and car industries. Zak, who delved into whiskey around 2015 after retiring from semi-professional athletics, entered the scene just before its surge in popularity. They acknowledged the challenges faced by the whiskey industry, particularly the impact of Covid-19, which led to initial growth followed by a downturn. Zak emphasized the issue of rising prices potentially alienating consumers, stressing the need for a balanced value proposition across different consumer segments. Gavin suggested the shift towards tequilas and rums could be a response to these challenges. The rising prices in the whiskey market, despite no apparent cost increases, were also discussed. They explored the practice of 'whiskey fixing,' where whiskeys are further aged to modify flavor profiles and create limited editions. Gavin shared his experience collecting rare, expensive bottles as potential investments. The investment potential of Scotch whiskey was a key topic, with its rapid growth surpassing other investments like real estate and premium wines. They also touched on limited production and the practice of 'flipping' whiskey for resale rather than consumption. The increasing prices of whiskey, particularly the McAllen edition, were analyzed. Gavin recounted buying the McAllen edition for $89-$95 and witnessing its value soar to $3,000 before dropping to $1,200. Zak highlighted the disparity between the rate of price increases and consumer affordability, particularly when collecting overshadows consumption. The challenges of serving high-end whiskey in bars were also explored, focusing on oxidation and the difficulty of maintaining optimal storage conditions. They emphasized the importance of proper handling to preserve quality and the challenges faced by bartenders in ensuring this. Zak and Gavin shared career highlights, with Zak recounting his visit to the Blair Athol distillery in Scotland, emphasizing its historical significance. They also discussed their whiskey tasting experiences, including a 52-year-old Macallan from 1969 for Zak and a 71-year-old Glenlivet for Gavin, both exceeding expectations despite preconceptions about older whiskeys. The conversation concluded with reflections on the subjective nature of whiskey preferences, the importance of quality control, and the joy of sharing high-quality whiskey with others. They criticized brands prioritizing reputation over quality and emphasized the value of shared experiences over material possessions.

Reviving The Cabrach: The Whiskey-Powered Renaissance of a Storied Scottish Region Imagine a region renowned for its whisky, considered a birthplace of it, with quality competing with big, old names like Glenlivet and Glenfarclas. Then imagine this region, once a thriving center of production, loses its population, falling below 100 people for an entire region, its legal and illicit distilling history lost to the landscape. This is The Cabrach, a beautiful space between Aberdeenshire, Speyside, and Dufftown in the north of Scotland. Since 2013, The Cabrach Trust has been reviving the region's storied history. From the very beginning, that whisky history was part and parcel of the revitalization, and a distillery was always in the cards. Now, that part of the dream is being realized. Listen to my interview with The Cabrach Trust Chief Executive Jonathan Christie to hear how detailed research and archaeological efforts are bringing to light the region's rich history of illicit whisky production. Understand why establishing a new distillery is not just about whiskey but also about fostering economic regeneration, preserving traditional methods, and creating sustainable practices that harmonize with the natural environment. Finally, immerse yourself in the broader community efforts that make this project truly unique. From nature trails and rural skills workshops to the intriguing idea of aging whiskey casks in a Cold War-era bunker, this episode paints a vivid picture of the blend of tradition and creativity driving Cabrach's revitalization.

The lantern shaped stills at Glenlivet have produced the world's top selling single malt for decades, imparting a light, tropical fruit and orchard aroma that sets the standard. Apples, pears, pineapples, and a touch of citrus lead the way with a creamy soft vanilla and poached pear flavor that never disappoints. To call it "light" is to do a disservice to this elegantly flavored malt. Bottled at 80 proof, there's a reason it's #1. And we've got it on promo right now for $39.99 so STOCK UP!
Today we're talking with Allison Luvera, co-founder and CEO of Juliet, a wine company that's reshaping the narrative around boxed wine. Allison has a really interesting background having worked in fashion advertising for Vogue and InStyle magazines, then later as director of Pernod Ricard's luxury marketing division, as brand marketing lead for Perrier-Jouet Champagne, Martell Cognac, Tequila Avion, Absolut Elyx, The Glenlivet, and Chivas. Juliet is an interesting product because it forged new territory in the boxed wine category, with very stylish branding and packaging. It's a cylindrical carton with a velvet rope handle, and really stands out on the shelf as a premium pick. Juliet is having phenomenal traction in hospitality venues — it's now being served poolside at the Bellagio in Las Vegas and several Auberge resorts. Customers are ordering the whole box and perching it on tables to keep refilling their own glasses. And at retail, the brand has defined itself as a go-to for gatherings, from bachelorette parties to PTA meetings. We discuss how Allison and co-founder Lauren DeNiro identified the whitespace in the boxed wine category, and pursued a solution — and a specific customer — with laser-like focus. Juliet has now raised more than $5 million in funding, and has surpassed 10,000 cases of 1.5 L cartons. Some key takeaways from the episode: Why boxed wine is a predicted to be a bright spot in the wine category in the coming years How Juliet closed a new round (in a tough fundraising environment!) to bring its fundraising total to $5 million Why Juliet is moving from a predominantly DTC model to a wholesale model How public relations and paid social campaigns drove growth in the early days Why “customers are the new influencers” – and how to engage and incentivize informal brand ambassadors Why on-premise partnerships in prestige accounts are crucial for discovery and brand-building Links Referenced in Show Juliet Wine: https://drinkjuliet.com/ IWSR's Key trends for the US wine market in 2024: https://www.theiwsr.com/key-trends-for-the-us-wine-market-in-2024/#:~:text=IWSR%20forecasts%20that%20US%20wine,2022%20falling%20by%20%2D3%25 Future Market Insights' Wine Box Market Outlook: https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/reports/wine-box-market 1,000 True Fans: https://kk.org/thetechnium/1000-true-fans/ The ‘Drinks of Summer' that Never Were (Vinepair): https://vinepair.com/articles/drinks-of-the-summer-that-never-were/ Stay tuned for our next episode dropping on July 10.

The latest earnings call held by Pernod Ricard SA on Thursday, February 15, 2024, provided an insightful look into the performance and projections of the company. Alexandre Ricard, the CEO, guided the narration with salient observations, particularly about the U.S. spirits market. He was quoted during the call as saying, "We do believe that the U.S. will finally normalize, it's happening. And by the way, it's quite...the sellout remains quite resilient. As I mentioned, between 1 and 2 before going back to 4 to 5, after 3 years of double the rate growth 3 years at 8%. So until we reach that point, we do believe then the U.S. will go back to that mid-single-digit range." The first half of the financial year '24 has seen Pernod Ricard SA deliver a steady financial performance, documented in their earnings report. Despite slight contractions in organic sales, the company was able to maintain a consistent organic operating margin. This is worth noting as an efficient balance between gross margin expansion and structural cost control, as expressed by the company representatives during the earnings call. Alongside these measures, the company continues to invest in marketing, with current expenditures nearing the EUR1 billion mark. Ricard further added context to the sales in the U.S. spirits industry from a value perspective during the call. "I mention a number of months ago last year, in fact, we believe that the sellout in the U.S. spirits industry from a value point of view is between 1% and 2%. Two, if we include the RTDs; one, if we exclude the RTDs as it normalizes and actually catches up with its long-term underlying trend of 4% to 5%." The company's strength lies in part in the diversity of their brand portfolio. Brands including Jameson Original, Malibu, Kahlua, The Glenlivet, Código, and Jefferson's have been identified by the company on the earnings call as gaining market share in their respective markets. The dynamic management of this portfolio via strategic acquisitions and disposals pairs with pointed investments in distilleries and aging stocks, giving substance to Pernod Ricard's outward commitment to steady, long-term growth. As we look to the future, the company is leveraging strategic investments, particularly focused on expanding whiskey capacities. Expressly, the investments will target Irish whiskey, North American capacities in Kentucky, and Scotch capacities in Scotland. Expectations for the next half of the year, as shared on the earnings call, predict improved net sales, more significant marketing investments, strict management of structural costs, and a potential allocation of approximately EUR300 million for a share buyback program. To conclude, Pernod Ricard SA's steady financial performance, diverse and growing brand portfolio, and strategic decisions have defined their current standing in the spirits market. The information shared on the earnings call indicates a company dynamically adapting to market shifts. They are keeping a wary eye on prevalent consumer trends and striving for careful financial planning to continue forging on their chosen path. However, it must be remembered that success is contingent upon several volatile factors; thus, what lies ahead will remain a mix of predictions and anticipation.

During a recent trip to Scotland Joshua, Jason and Jess visit the location of the future Cabrach distillery to discuss the Cabrach Trust as well as the land and its history. The Cabrach is home to a rich history of distilling (both illicit and legal). The Cabrach Distillery will cast an eye back to the distilling of yesteryear as, besides to double pot stills it will house, it will feature a very unusual still called "The Buck". Listen in as the 3 J's discuss all this with The Cabrach's Chief Executive Jonathan Christie and its Master of Malt, Alan Winchester. Yes, of The Glenlivet fame. There may even be a secret guest popping in to say hello toward the end of the padcost! ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

When legacy brands start looking like startups, should entrepreneurs be worried? The hosts discuss. They also highlight several new and notable products, including chakra-specific shots and a cap-activated bottled cocktail.

Show notes: 0:39: A Troll's “Tears.” Barbie Bottles. Snacking Pineapple And Wasabi Cheese. Twisty Cocktails. – Ray and Mike returned to the show and the latter brought his favorite beverage with him. The hosts chatted about attention-grabbing rhetoric surrounding the “Barbie” movie and a new LTO featuring the pop culture icon, as well as Dole's solid segue into snacking and entrepreneurial takes on puffs and popcorn.

The story of San Diego's top ranked news anchorman getting upstaged by a budding female reporter is the perfect film to break format on a podcast. When the host of this show got the call from network brass that they wanted to give Nick Malone - a rising, hot shot talent from the local affiliate in Viera, Florida - his shot at guest hosting duties, he graciously agreed to the proposition. After all, Dennis has secretly wanted to be a guest on his own pod for a while now. So, let's give this kid his big shot. Go douse yourself in Sex Panther, pour three fingers of Glenlivet, add a little bit of pepper and grab some cheese…because things may escalate quickly. Hosted on Acast.

Bob and Brad wrap up Season 6 with Michael Mann's 1992 historical epic The Last of the Mohicans, a film that neither Bob nor Brad had seen before. Luckily, they're joined by film critic Daniel Joyaux to break it down. Daniel counts this among his favorite movies, largely because of just how rewatchable it is. Together, the trio discuss Daniel Day-Lewis having the movie stolen out from under him by the phenomenal Wes Studi, the career of Madeleine Stowe, and how this movie fits into the catalog of Mann's filmography. (Daniel sips on three whiskeys that were generously delivered to him by our friends at Detroit City Distillery.) Meanwhile, they stay in Scotland to try The Glenlivet Enigma. This special-release scotch is part of the brand's Mystery Series, which are marketed without tasting notes or much info in the way of provenance. At around a $150 price tag, is it worth the guessing game? Film & Whiskey Podcast. New episodes every Monday. Film & Whiskey Instagram Film & Whiskey Facebook Film & Whiskey Twitter Email us!

Kathleen opens the show drinking a Pompeii IPA from Toppling Goliath Brewing in Decorah, IA. “GOOD BAD FOOD”: In her quest for new and delicious not-so-nutritious junk food AND in continuing her search for the best Ranch, Kathleen samples Duke's Habanero Garlic Mayonnaise, which she absolutely LOVES. She moves on to try Lay's Layers 3-Cheese flavored, which she says to “skip it.” She finishes her tasting with Cleveland Pickle's Spicy Dill pickles, which she says needs a beer chaser because they are deliciously hot (Fiaaaah.)QUEEN'S COURT: Kathleen shares that Queen Stevie Nicks has announced a full solo headlining tour. UPDATES: Kathleen gives updates on another Capitol rioter who hired an Uber to leave the incident, and Vladimir Putin's expensive assets.“HOLY SHIT THEY FOUND IT”: Kathleen is amazed to read about the discovery of an underground city in Turkey, and scientific evidence emerges to identify the biggest earthquake in human history. OLDEST RARE EXISTING SCOTCH AUCTIONED IN VANCOUVER: Kathleen reads an article announcing that 2 bottles of the world's oldest and most exceptionally rare single-malt Scotch whiskey are expected to be sold in Vancouver at the end of April. Only 250 bottles of Glenlivet 80-Year-Old Gordon and MacPhail are available in the world, and a British Columbia store secured bottles 100 and 108. The auction will start with the current record baseline price set for a rare “forgotten” cask of whiskey that sold for $1M at auction. JET BLUE REJECTION: Kathleen laughs as she reads an article about an overbooked JetBlue flight to Cancun where passengers were offered $10,000 in JetBlue credit to give up their seat, and nobody took it. NEW BUG SPECIES HONORS TAYLOR SWIFT: Kathleen loves Taylor Swift (“Tay-Tay”) and is thrilled to read an article announcing that an entomologist who is also a Taylor fan has named a new millipede species after the singer. SURVIVAL SLEEPING: Kathleen reads the results of a study that advises when you sleep in unfamiliar surroundings, only half your brain is getting a good night's rest. The finding, reported in the journal Current Biology, helps explain why people tend to feel tired after sleeping in a new place. It suggests people have something in common with birds and sea mammals, which frequently put half their brain to sleep while the other half remains on guard.MONEY CAN BUY YOU HAPPINESS: Kathleen reads that Wharton psychologists have determined that people who make $75K or more per year lead a generally happier life than those who make less (duh.)WHITE HOUSE PAINTING PREPS FOR AUCTION: Kathleen reads that the famous painting Washington Crossing the Delaware that once hung in the White House is to be auctioned by Christies, and is estimated to fetch $15M. SOUTH CAROLINA FIRING SQUAD: Kathleen reads an article advising that South Carolina's planned execution by firing squad is on hold for now. It has been more than a decade since the last firing squad execution in the U.S. The state of Utah carried out all three such executions in the nation since 1976.CARPET CLEANER SPEAKS 24 LANGUAGES: Kathleen is amused to read about the overachieving nature of a Maryland-based carpet cleaner who speaks 24 languages, officially termed a “hyperpolyglot.”RED WOLF PUPPIES BORN: Kathleen is excited to read that US Fish & Wildlife staff in North Carolina welcomed a litter of 6 red wolf pups into the world earlier this week. It's the first time in 4 years that a pair of endangered red wolves gave birth to a litter in the wild.GREG NORMAN SAUDI GOLF SAGA CONTINUES: As an avid golf fan, Kathleen brings Termites up to speed on the latest in the Greg Norman LIV Golf saga.
