PAX FÖR SHERRYDERIVAT! De som var med hävdar att sherrylagrad whisky var bättre förr. Särskilt fram till 1989. Varför? Här är allt (?) du velat veta om gamla fatförnyarblandningen paxarette, eller pajarete. En gång ett legit spanskt vin, sedermera ett medel för att föryngra sherryfat som sedan förbjöds 1989.

Episode SummaryTo celebrate their landmark 400th episode, The Bourbon Lens crew heads to one of the most hallowed sites in American whiskey — Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Shively, Kentucky — for a sit-down with Nicole Austin, Diageo's Director of American Whiskey Liquid Development and Capabilities. Nicole pulls back the curtain on the mystery of why decades-old bourbon aged in Stitzel-Weller's rickhouses defies the conventional wisdom that American whiskey "expires" past a certain age. The conversation covers barrel consolidation (topping off), the historic rickhouse design patented by Frederick Stitzel, and the launch of the new Blade and Bow 12-Year Solera — a 104-proof, sub-$65 bourbon built using a fractional-blending Solera process borrowed from sherry and adapted for American whiskey.Main ThemesThe "magic" of Stitzel-Weller's rickhouses — why extreme-age American whiskey (25–40+ years) is proving possible here, and how airflow, rickhouse architecture, and shade trees may matter as much as the mash bill.Barrel consolidation ("topping off") — a labor-intensive practice borrowed from Scotch and Canadian whiskey that halts the "snowball effect" of angel's share loss and staving damage in half-empty barrels.The Solera method, Americanized — how Nicole adapted sherry's fractional-blending system into a 12-year-minimum-age bourbon blend using vintage cognac, port, muscatel, and Bordeaux vats.Craft philosophy over collectibility — Nicole's approach favors consistent quality and drinkability over hype-driven, numbered limited releases.Proof point and dilution culture — a pushback on "proof-chasing" in the bourbon community, and why a 104-proof whiskey can outperform higher-proof releases in balance and accessibility.Bourbon history and place — Shively's forgotten legacy as a distilling capital, and Stitzel-Weller's connection to figures like Julian "Pappy" Van Winkle.Featured GuestNicole Austin — Director of American Whiskey Liquid Development and Capabilities, Diageo. Former general manager and master blender at Cascade Hollow (George Dickel), now overseeing extended-age and innovation projects at Stitzel-Weller, including the Stitzel Reserve line and Blade and Bow.Featured WhiskeyBlade and Bow 12-Year Solera BourbonMinimum age: 12 years (in new American oak)Proof: 104MSRP: $64.99Process: Fractional Solera blending across vintage cognac, port, muscatel, and Bordeaux vatsQuick LinksFollow The Bourbon Lens on Instagram for bottle drop alertsVisit Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Shively, Louisville, KY

This is the redo of the live i did 9/8/26 With some amazing guests. Hope you enjoy if you were not there. Patreon.com/oftopicwhiskeyAndalusiawhiskey.comWhiskeydelbac.comHrdspirits.comAndalusia Whiskey Co produces fine handcrafted whiskeys in the Texas Hill Country - a scene reminiscent of the hills in the beautiful Andalucia, Spain. Each whiskey being “grain to glass,” we begin with a mash of the finest American grown malted grains. We then continue our production here in Blanco, Texas distilling each in our hand-crafted copper pot still. McCarthy's® OregonSingle Malt WhiskeyThe First American Single Malt. Blend old-world tradition with Oregon ingenuity and you get McCarthy's Oregon Single Malt Whiskey. Over 25 years ago, founder Steve McCarthy returned from a trip to Ireland determined to make his own single malt. Not only did he succeed, but in doing so ignited the craft American Single Malt Revolution. This is passion and craft, an Oregon original. It was one of those cool desert nights in 2006 where Elaine and Stephen Paul sat outside on their patio, barbecuing over a mesquite fire and enjoying a glass of Scotch. Elaine had an idea — “What if you made single malt whiskey with ‘mesquited' malt instead of peated malt?”‍Stephen couldn't shake the concept. After all, he knew mesquite well. He and Elaine owned a furniture design company that specialized in mesquite. Well-known for the flavor it imparts to food that is cooked over it, mesquite is a beautifully grained wood native to the desert Southwest.Stephen began learning everything he could about how the Scots make their whiskies. While learning how to floor-malt barley, he began with the recipe for Classic, modeled after the unpeated style of Speyside Scotches. If he could nail down a clean-finishing American Single Malt Whiskey that rivaled Scotland's finest, then he could take the recipe and put a Southwest spin on it — which is how our mesquited (not peated) Dorado was born.

This is The Beer Is Fundamental Show. This is Episode 158 and we want to welcome you once again to the NeighBeerHood where craft beer is always the talk of the town. I am BT aka O-Beer-Wan Kenobi the Jedi Knight of craft beer and (this is Lady T.) In this episode of The Beer Is Fundamental Show, we explore the world of whisky while reflecting on our recent adventures. Thanks to Total Wine, we sample a Glengoyne Scotch whisky pack featuring three different expressions, giving us an opportunity to compare and discuss their unique characteristics. We also share highlights from our recent trip to the Barrel and Flow Festival and talk about the latest developments at Stone Brewing, including its plans to exit its three Escondido locations. To round things out, we dive into the differences between Scotch whisky and Irish whiskey, exploring what makes each style distinctive. We are on social media. Instagram at beer is fundamental and the same with Facebook. You can contact us by phone also at 407-350-7909. Feel free to leave a message if we're not available. You can definitely check us out on the Beerisfundamental.com. You can get the best in craft beer news, craft beer specials, and other awesome things.

Send us Fan MailWe put our “whiskey without borders” promise to the test by tasting King Car Taiwanese single malt finished in bourbon barrels and arguing over the wildest notes we find. We score it nose, body, taste, and finish, then stack it up against bottles like Highland Park 12 and Johnnie Walker Green before we shift into Kentucky Bourbon Festival plans. • Why international whiskey belongs on a bourbon-forward show • King Car's tropical fruit nose: pineapple, mango, banana, vanilla, caramel • Bubblegum, suntan lotion, and other “you had to be there” aroma calls • Mouthfeel talk: oily, viscous, then gently drying • Smoke and leather notes without heavy peat • Barrel Bottle Breakdown scoring system and our final average score • Finish debate: medium vs long and the lingering licorice-anise edge • Comparison pours and what bourbon drinkers might like best • Kentucky Bourbon Festival logistics and where to find us • Bourbon balls made with maple-finished bourbon and long-soaked pecans www.scotchybourbonboys.com If you watch us or if you listen to us, make sure that you leave us good feedback If you listen on Apple, leave us a good five-star review and give us a review If you're coming down to the Kentucky Bourbon Festival, come check out the Scotchy Bourbon Boys, come find us, say hello, and let's have a pour or two A single malt from Taiwan finished in bourbon barrels sounds like a mashup, but the glass tells a real story. We pour King Car and immediately start chasing notes that feel both familiar and surprising: pineapple acidity, mango smoothness, vanilla sweetness, light caramel, and a nostalgic bubblegum aroma that sparks a full-on debate. If you're a bourbon drinker who wants to explore international whiskey without diving straight into heavy peat, this tasting is built for you.  We break the whiskey down the Scotchy Bourbon Boys way, scoring nose, body, taste, and finish, and we get specific about what's working and what isn't. The nose shines with fruit and dessert-like sweetness, the body brings an oily, viscous mouthfeel, and the palate shifts quickly into gentle smoke and a dry leather-oak edge. Then we argue about the finish, because some pours disappear fast and others hang around in the back of your throat like a “ghost note” for the rest of the night. We even float the idea of an “after aroma” category for the empty glass, because sometimes that's where the best whiskey memories live.  To help you place King Car in your own collection, we compare it to familiar bottles like Highland Park 12 and Johnnie Walker Green, calling out peat level, fruit character, and smoke intensity in plain terms. After the tasting, we pivot into real-world whiskey life: Kentucky Bourbon Festival travel plans, where you can find us on the grounds, and the homemade bourbon balls we're bringing along for friends and fellow fans.  If you enjoy bourbon, single malt, Scotch comparisons, and honest tasting notes, subscribe and share this one with a whiskey buddy. Leave us a five-star review on Apple Podcasts, and drop a comment with the one flavor note you always chase when you try a new single malt.7 If You Have GohstsSupport the showhttps://www.scotchybourbonboys.comThe Scotchy bourbon Boys are #3 in Feedspots Top 60 whiskey podcasts in the world    https://podcast.feedspot.com/whiskey_podcasts/

Welcome back, Roadies! Todd and Jim are settling into the newly redesigned Corner Rickhouse at the Frankfort Bourbon Society, fresh paint and all, for another wide-ranging tasting session. Todd teases an upcoming Monday Meetup celebrating a milestone birthday, and Jim shares highlights from a family trip to Savannah before the two dive into four distinctly different finished and blended whiskeys that span Colorado craft, orchard-inspired blends, Scotch-barrel finishing, and rare American oak. On the Tasting Mat: - Lock & Co. Big Blaze Bourbon: A Denver-based, 95-proof, five-year-old bourbon uniquely finished with charred Aspen wood discs sourced directly from trees destroyed in Colorado's 2020 East Troublesome Fire. The nose opens with smoked maple caramel and a bright, citrus freshness. The palate is clean and straightforward — sweet maple and caramel lead, the smokiness softens mid-palate, and a gentle white pepper spice emerges on the finish. Ten percent of proceeds support Grand County firefighters and first responders. Available in Colorado and online to 48 states for around $56.99. *(00:25:37)* - Chicken Cock Oh Glory Limited Edition Hunter-Proof American Whiskey Blend: A one-of-a-kind collaboration between Chicken Cock and Laird & Company, blending 70% of Chicken Cock's 95/5 Kentucky straight rye (distilled at Bardstown) with 30% Laird's bottled-in-bond apple brandy, bottled at 100 proof. The nose is an inviting walk through an apple orchard in spring — fresh red apples with a subtle rye mintiness underneath. The palate is buttery and remarkably smooth, with a cool sweet wave up front, almost no mid-palate bite, and a warming, peppery finish that builds with each sip. Twelve thousand bottles released at an MSRP of $65. *(00:43:51)* - Bardstown Bourbon Company Lox of Jura Barrel Finish: A bespoke blend of 49% 11-year Indiana bourbon (75/21/4), 30% 10-year Indiana rye (95/5), and 21% 12-year Kentucky bourbon (75/13/12), rested an additional 32 months in single malt Scotch whiskey barrels sourced from the Isle of Jura — 84% ex-bourbon and 16% ex-sherry Scotch casks — and bottled at 104 proof. The nose layers honeydew melon, orchard fruit, and gentle malt in a way that is decidedly un-peated and approachable. The palate achieves a remarkable balance among all three components — bourbon sweetness, rye spice, and fruity Scotch character — with the lines between them blurring beautifully. The finish is long and warming, growing more Scotch-forward with time. MSRP $140. *(00:46:55)* - Bardstown Bourbon Company Discovery 2026: A blend of 55% 10-year Indiana bourbon (75/21/4), 25% 11-year Kentucky bourbon (74/18/8), and 20% 7-year Kentucky bourbon (74/16/10), finished in custom Gariana oak barrels hand-toasted for three hours by Oregon Barrel Works and chosen for maximum summer extraction, bottled at 112.8 proof. The nose presents butterscotch, burnt sugar, and a hint of molasses-like richness. The palate leans sweet and thick with cola-like depth, cooked cherry, and a distinct nuttiness; the finish carries a pleasant citrus-cherry brightness with lingering spice. MSRP $140. *(01:01:13)* As a bonus pour, the guys also opened the Lost Lantern United States of Bourbon 1776 Edition, a one-time-only cask-strength blend of bourbons from distilleries in each of the 13 original colonies — from Painted Stave (DE) and Liberty Pole (PA) to King's County (NY) and Reservoir (VA) — hand-numbered to 1,776 bottles at 121.4 proof and MSRP $199.99. It rounds out an episode packed with creative finishing techniques, cross-category blending, and the kind of spirited conversation that makes the Bourbon Road worth every mile. Head to thebourbonroad.com to sign up for the Roadie Bar, watch for giveaways featuring full 750ml bottles of the Discovery and Lox of Jura, and we'll see you down the road!

Note: As a reminder, Rumcast Reserve bottles are officially available in stores and shipping from our online retailer! You can grab your bottles here.You can watch the video version of this episode on YouTube.This is an episode that's been months in the making. After our Rumcast Reserve project, Main Rum Company put together a mystery box of old and rare cask samples that they promised would wow us. Thanks to U.S. customs, it took nearly a year for us to actually get our hands on the samples, but once we finally did we can definitively say they did not disappoint. They were some of the finest rums we've ever tasted.For an extra bit of fun, we decided to try our luck at guessing their origins. This episode shows you how we did, all in real time, followed by a ranking of our personal favorites at the end. Here's a look ahead at what we tasted:1992 Pampero aged for 34 years in ex-bourbon and ex-Scotch malt whisky casks, 42.3% ABV1989 (or 1991?) Caroni aged 34-37 years in an ex-rum cask, 45.4% ABV, TMC8 mark1983 blend of various Hampden and Long Pond marks (including DOK, HGML, CH, H, HLCF, LPS, and STC♥E), full aging details not revealed, 48.6% ABV, listen for more detailsBlend of Barbados, Jamaica, and Guyana rums with an average vintage of 1990, though rums from '82, '83, '86, and '89 are also in the blend, 48.9% ABV1989 Guyana (Uitvlugt Port Mourant) aged for 37 years in ex-bourbon and ex-Scotch malt whisky casks, 56.7% ABV1984 Clarendon (MMW mark) aged for 42 years (including 34 at origin) in an ex-rum cask, 59.7% ABVThese were all cask samples from Main Rum Company, so everything is cask strength and single cask. Have a listen, and see how wrong we were!

Today we're talking with the master distiller of one of the most prominent American whiskey producers of the past two decades, High West Whiskey. High West built much of its reputation through blending, which has long been a tradition in Scotch whisky but has often been treated with suspicion by American whiskey drinkers. In this episode, master distiller, Isaac Winter, joins us to investigate why blending has been so misunderstood.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you'd like to see us cover?

"At this very time, they are permitting their chief magistrate to send over not only soldiers of our common blood, but SCOTCH and foreign Mercenaries to invade and deluge us in blood." -From Jefferson's first draft of the Declaration of Independence In this episode, we survey the history and importance of Scotland and Scottish people in Revolutionary America. Topics include: -anti-Scottish sentiment in the Colonies, particularly among Southern planters, like Jefferson, who were indebted to Scottish tobacco traders -the origins of the "Pursuit of Happiness" in the Scottish Enlightenment -explanations of Scots and the Scotch-Irish -push and pull factors driving Scots and the Scotch-Irish to the Colonies -the Jacobite Uprising in 1745 in Scotland and its consequences for Scotland and the 13 Colonies -the revolutionary continuity among the various British upheavals of the 1600s and 1700s along with the American Revolution -the Scottish tobacco trade -the reception of the Declaration in Scotland -wider implications of the Declaration on Scottish politics -The connection or lack of connection between the Scottish Declaration of Arbroath in 1320 and the US Declaration Prof. Francis Cogliano's books can be found here: [Revolutionary America, 1763.1815: A Political History](https://www.routledge.com/Revolutionary-America-1763-1815-A-Political-History/Cogliano/p/book/9781032150321) [The American Revolution at 250](https://www.upress.virginia.edu/title/10183/) The cover image features one of the Scottish Founders, John Witherspoon. Witherspoon was born in East Lothian, Scotland, in 1723. In 1768, he emigrated to New Jersey to become the President of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton). A staunch republican and Presbyterian, he believed that resisting tyranny was the duty of Christians. He signed the Declaration of Independence on behalf of the citizens of New Jersey in 1776.

Why do independent bottlers matter, and how do they let you taste whiskey that never makes it into a distillery's core range? In Episode 3 of Whiskey Lens, Jake Lewellen sits down with Sam Filmus, founder of Impex Beverage, to unpack the world of single casks and curated collections — and how Scotch whiskey makes its way onto American shelves.Sam walks through his path into the business, starting with an ethnic import company in California before pivoting into mainstream whiskey, and explains why independent bottling was such a hard sell in the early 2000s, when buyers expected a Macallan label to look like, well, a Macallan label. He and Jake dig into how the category has exploded since then — with Impex, Lost Lantern, and Single Cask Nation all building loyal followings — and how Impex curates each annual edition around its own theme, from single malts across Scotland's regions to grain whisky and blended malt.The conversation gets hands-on with two Impex selections: an 11-year Teaninich, a clean, Speyside-leaning Highland malt with a surprising backstory involving a distillery founder known as the "Blind Captain," and a 14-year cask-strength Ardmore, which becomes the jumping-off point for a real conversation about peat — Highland peat versus the more medicinal, maritime style associated with Islay. Sam also shares the story behind his favorite Impex bottling to date: a 25-year-old Springbank finished in a sherry cask under the guidance of Exclusive Malts' David Stirk.If you've ever wondered what "single cask" really means, why independent bottlers are reshaping how whiskey drinkers discover new distilleries, or how peated Scotch can be far more approachable than its reputation suggests, this episode is for you.Chapters:00:00 – Why Independent Bottlers Matter01:36 – Sam Filmus's Journey Into Whiskey03:23 – The Rise of Independent Bottling in the U.S.06:31 – Curating Impex: The Springbank 25 and Building Each Edition16:22 – Tasting Teaninich: Clean Distillate and the "Blind Captain" Story23:24 – Tasting Ardmore: Cask Strength and Highland Peat32:24 – Scotch's Wide Spectrum, and How to Buy Impex BottlingsSubscribe

Professional wrestler Steph De Lander joins Steph for a two-Steph summit of broken bodies and public rage. SDL walks through the full saga of her neck: hearing the crunch-crunch-crunch on a northern lights suplex at the WWE training center, years of injections straight into the disc, the rupture on a jumping pull-up the day before a five-day Australian tour, crying through the flight, and the two surgeries that left her with a piece of her own hip bone and brand-new microplastic tech fused into her spine, which healed so fast her surgeon called his colleagues to look at the scans. From there they get into faking 100 logged driving hours to get a license, why announcing "a women's match" just cues up the creeps, Steph's midnight Facebook fight with a fan who refuses to watch her clips, the Austin TSA agent who stuck a hand in her face, waiting five and a half hours to confront the middle-seat texter who called her insane, and Steph inhaling a solid portion of her dead dog Susan's ashes while transferring the urn. Plus: $12 Erewhon oats, the Scotch tape facelift, bullying fans into buying merch, breast reduction recovery horror, and a plan to get Steph Tolev into a WWE ring.

In this episode of The Rolex Whiskey Passion Project, host and guest Teddy Joseph, Global Brand Ambassador for Suntory's Scotch and Irish whiskies, take a nostalgic, high-spirited dive into the world of fine spirits. Teddy traces his 25-year journey from managing nightclubs and running craft cocktail programs in Edinburgh to championing iconic single malts across the globe. Together, they reflect on the massive cultural shift in whisky—from the days when blends and bourbons ruled dive bars to the modern era of single malt luxury and global distillery pilgrimages.

John Swinney is the First Minister of Scotland and leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP).But before Bute House, before becoming Scotland's longest-serving Deputy First Minister, and before eventually taking the top job, John was a politically engaged teenager from Edinburgh who joined the SNP at just 15 years old.In this episode of Origin Story, I sit down with John Swinney inside his residence Bute House to talk about the story behind the politician.We talk about growing up in Edinburgh, discovering politics as a teenager, joining the SNP in 1979, his unexpected journey to becoming First Minister, stepping back from frontline politics for his family and ultimately returning when he believed his party and country needed him.We also talk about child poverty, social mobility, Scottish independence, Scotland's relationship with America, the Tartan Army taking over Boston, Scotch whisky tariffs, his conversations with Donald Trump, family life, political pressure, paddleboarding, hangovers and what the Scottish Dream could look like for the next generation.This is a conversation about more than politics.It is about duty, opportunity, identity, public service and what drives someone to keep stepping forward when it might be easier to step away.This is John Swinney's Origin Story.Follow David:Instagram: @davidmcintoshjrTikTok: @davidmcintoshjrLinkedIn: David McIntosh JrSpotify / Apple Podcasts: Origin Story with David McIntosh Jr

Send us Fan MailDrums and Rums is back — from Key West!Paul takes the show on the road for a special conversation from Papa's Pilar Rum Distillery in Key West with distiller, rum enthusiast, musician and newly published author Shawn Martin, who writes under the name Shawn Michael Dean.Shawn's path to making rum wasn't exactly planned. With a background in marine biology, he came to Key West working as a scuba instructor and boat captain before what was supposed to be a temporary job at a new distillery turned into nearly a decade of making and experimenting with rum.In this episode, Paul and Shawn dig into how the rum industry has evolved, why rum is often misunderstood, and why the spirit deserves the same appreciation given to bourbon, Scotch and whiskey.Shawn also takes us inside the creative side of distilling — experimenting with fermentation, different distillation techniques, barrel finishes and small-batch Distillery Reserve releases. And since we're recording at the distillery, we don't just talk about them…we taste a few along the way.The conversation goes well beyond rum, too.We explore the history of the building and its connections to old Key West and Ernest Hemingway, the creation of the Hemingway Social Club, Key West's music scene, tiki culture, and Shawn's newest creative adventure: becoming an author.After nearly 10 years of writing on and off, Shawn recently released his first novel, Coral Bay, under the name Shawn Michael Dean — and he's already thinking about what comes next.It's rum, science, history, music, writing, Key West and a few good laughs along the way.In other words, exactly what Drums and Rums is supposed to be:Where the Backbeats Meet the Spirits.

This week on the Bourbon Bytes podcast, we're turning up the proof with hazmat brandy, cask-strength rye, coconut-inspired Scotch, a potentially huge win for retro gamers, and a throwback review of one of the best Canadian whiskies I've ever tasted. Copper & Kings is making several former distillery exclusives available online, including a 10-year rum-finished apple brandy at 147.6 proof, a 9-year apple brandy at 145.4 proof, and a 12-year American brandy at 119.2 proof. Old Overholt is also back with a new 11-year Cask Strength Rye. The 2026 release comes in at 125.6 proof, making it notably stronger than the previous 11-year edition. Then The Macallan closes out its Harmony Collection with two coconut-inspired releases: Inspired by Fresh Coconut and Inspired by Toasted Coconut. They are not flavored whiskies, but their tasting profiles promise coconut milk, lime, tropical fruit, crème caramel, white chocolate, charred pineapple, and frangipane. On the gaming side, a leaked Xbox plan could be a major win for physical media collectors. The rumored disc-to-digital program would let players register physical Xbox One games as digital copies, with Xbox 360 support potentially following later. Finally, it's time for a throwback Byte-Sized Review of J.P. Wiser's 23 Year Old Cask Strength Canadian Whisky. Originally released in 2019, this blend of 23-year-old corn and rye whiskies was bottled at a massive 128.6 proof and originally sold for around $149 Canadian—approximately $106 US at the time. Seven years later, it still delivers bright citrus, blueberry, caramel, vanilla, rye bread, syrupy honey texture, cinnamon-roll sweetness, subtle oak, vintage tobacco, and an exceptionally long finish. Is this still one of the best Canadian whiskies ever released?

Dave's summer vacation got cut from three months down to two, and Adam has a theory. New baby, plus he hasn't been working near as hard. Dave tried to get a second opinion from Anthony Fauci, who invoked the Fifth on advice of counsel, so we're left with the ruling as it stands. Either way, the new van is getting loaded and the Niles family is headed to a cabin in Michigan for two weeks. Fifties at night, fires in the morning and the evening, which means chopping enough firewood to replace what you burn. Golf, swimming, and a little aluminum fishing boat that Davey gets to ride in. Joseph and Joshua stay on shore. Joseph has a big knot on his head at the moment anyway.Sponsor: Amen app (from the Augustine Institute) Sunday morning in a Catholic family is not easy like Sunday morning. It's kids in the van, beat Father down the aisle, get to the pew. The Amen app is how the guys prepare their kids to receive the Gospel before Mass even starts, plus free access to Divine Mercy in My Soul and True Devotion to Mary. Since 2021 it's hit 950,000 downloads. Let's get them to a million. No paywall, no subscription, no upfront cost. Download the Amen app right now.Sponsor: Select International Tours When Adam and Dave went looking for help leading their first pilgrimage, every single person pointed them to Select International Tours. Having used them, the guys can vouch. Wherever in the world you want to go, head to selectinternationaltours.com and see what they have ready.On the drive back from Lady Pamela's family reunion in Arkansas, Dave counted three mopeds inside 45 minutes, which would be unremarkable in Portland and is deeply strange here. A moped gang remains unconfirmed but would be extremely cool. His reading time is going to Plato's Republic with the group at Deacon Harrison's house, book 10 now, while Adam has missed it all year and is on record that he'll haunt them if they kick him out.Dave also saw the new Odyssey movie, alongside Dr. Frank Grabowski, Juan in a dog onesie as Argos, and Deacon Harrison Garlick, who announced in the group text beforehand: "I have filled my heart with hate." Verdict, 7.5 for entertainment. They shouldn't have tried to cram the whole epic into one film, they changed the ending, which you can't do, and they folded the lotus eaters into Calypso's island. That last one guts the most important choice in the story. Odysseus rejects immortality for his family. That's the whole thing.The pour is Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey, the flagship, from a bottle the distiller sent the guys when the show started and that has sat on the shelf about ten years since. The label reads: Warning, contains high levels of manliness. No age statement, and no, ten years in your house doesn't count. Whiskey only ages in the barrel. Small batch, four barleys, virgin charred American white oak. Not bourbon, not 51% corn. Made in the style of Scotch, right here in America.Then the topic: the five precepts of the Church, Catechism 2041, page 548 if you've got the classic 90s edition. This is the Church flexing authority, which she rarely does. Most of what she does is defensive. Papal infallibility is a negative power, not a positive one. The precepts are different. They bind, and they're the floor, not the ceiling.Attend Mass on Sundays and holy days, and rest from servile labor. Everybody knows the first half. The second half is the one that stings, because going out to eat after Mass means you're compelling somebody else to work. Nurses show up, gas stations stay open, and nobody needs to be demolished by guilt over a trip to the store. Don't be a Pharisee about it. Do take it seriously.Confess your sins at least once a year, meaning your mortal sins. Go monthly anyway, and do a daily examination of conscience, because you can't remember what you ate two days ago, much less where you lost your temper 28 days ago. Dave prays to Our Lady on the way in: help me make this confession as if it were my last. Adam leaves his phone outside, because it's listening, and that's not a conspiracy. And if you deliberately hold a mortal sin back, the confession is invalid and you've just added to the pile. Compound interest is powerful. Compound sin is worse.Receive the Eucharist at least during the Easter season. Observe the days of fasting and abstinence, which used to be far heavier, and nothing is stopping you from going heavier now. Adam has never once enjoyed fasting. Dave eats nothing until dinner and swears he thinks more clearly for it. Both of them fast every Wednesday with a group of men and offer it up for their wives and their families. That's the domestic priesthood doing what it's for.And help provide for the needs of the Church. Notice it doesn't say if you can afford it. Money is the easy part. Time is the sacrifice, especially in the seasons of fatherhood when there isn't any. Fr. Brian O'Brien's answer when somebody says the church really ought to do this: "I totally agree. You should do it." Your kids need to see you make some of your time sacred, not because nothing else was asking for it, but because you told everything else no.It all lands on stewardship. You don't owe God 10%. You owe Him 100%. The house, the money, the hours, and most of all the kids were never yours, and He's going to want all of it back. Adam is honest about where that gets hard: leaving work drained, walking in the door, wanting to shut down instead of engage. The fix isn't willpower. It's routine. A liturgy of the home. Because those minutes belong to Him too, and at judgment there won't be a single moment that goes unjudged.One housekeeping note. The Camp Out is always the last weekend of September, so put it on the calendar now. Sign-ups open at the end of August, late on purpose, because opening early means people sign up and don't come, and space is limited. Patrons still come free. This year the guys will be asking for donations on site, because Patreon numbers are down and 100% of what comes in goes straight back into the show. Neither of them takes an income from it.Protect what you were given. Provide more than the minimum. Establish a house that looks like the King is coming back for it. Raise your glass.TOPICS COVEREDDave's summer vacation demoted from three months to two, with Fauci pleading the Fifth on the scienceTwo weeks at a Michigan cabin, chopping firewood to replace what you burn, and a little aluminum fishing boat15,000 miles on a brand new van because Oklahoma City is a multiple-times-a-week tripThree mopeds in 45 minutes in Arkansas, and the unconfirmed existence of a moped gangReading Plato's Republic with the group at Deacon Harrison's, book 10, and Adam's threat to haunt them if he gets kicked outThe new Odyssey movie reviewed: Juan in a dog onesie as Argos and Harrison Garlick arriving with his heart pre-filled with hateWhy folding the lotus eaters into Calypso's island wrecks the most important choice in the storyWhiskey of the week: Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey, on the shelf ten years, "warning, contains high levels of manliness"Why an age statement stops the day it's bottled, because whiskey only ages in the barrelWhat makes Stranahan's American whiskey and not bourbon: four barleys, virgin charred American white oak, made in the style of ScotchBringing back the old show warning, sporadically and without noticeThe five precepts of the Church, Catechism 2041, and why they're the floor and not the ceilingPapal infallibility as a negative, defensive power versus the precepts as the Church flexing positive authorityWhy the Church legislates as little as possible and prefers freedom from the law over obedience to itResting from servile labor: the case against going out to eat after Mass, and why nurses and gas stations are fineSt. John Chrysostom on why you cannot pray at home the way you pray in churchConfessing mortal sins at least once a year, and why monthly confession is the better habitThe daily examination of conscience as the thing that makes confession possible at allDave's prayer to Our Lady walking into the confessional: make this confession as if it were my lastWhy Adam leaves his phone outside the confessionalSt. Alphonsus Liguori on concealing sin, and why an intentionally incomplete confession is invalid and grave matterThe Easter duty and St. Thomas Aquinas on why the Eucharist completes what baptism beginsAquinas's threefold purpose of fasting, and why the second reason is the most interesting oneSt. Basil the Great: fasting as a weapon for the valiant and a gymnasium for athletesFasting every Wednesday with a group of men and offering it up for your wife and familyProviding for the needs of the Church with time, not just money, and Fr.

This week on Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan dive into one of the most anticipated monster releases of the year: the Jack Daniel's Special Release (2026) Boiler Hill #1 Rye Whiskey.

And for “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, Bryan poses a stranded-in-paradise dilemma: Say you're headed to a remote Pacific Island for a 3-week trip—what bottle are you stopping by a standard, everyday liquor store to grab for the journey?

This week on Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan pull out a massive, highly anticipated release: the Wild Turkey Austin Nichols Archives: Gold Foil Edition. As a modern 16-year-old, 120-proof tribute to the legendary 1980s "Cheesy Gold Foil," this initial entry in the Archives series is ready to bring serious presence to the table. Before pouring and reviewing this brand-new release, the boys start off with some casual banter, discussing Baxus's wild slot-machine-style whiskey vending machine concept, chatting through plans for an upcoming listener meetup, and taking a deep dive into the heritage of vintage Wild Turkey—explaining what those original "Cheesy Gold Foil" bottles represented and why that profile inspired this modern homage. On Whiskey World News, Bryan reads about some exciting updates out of Islay as Kilchoman Distillery announces a batch of incredible new releases, proving why farm-to-glass Scotch continues to capture the whiskey world's attention. And for “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, the boys pose an agonizing dilemma for George T. Stagg fans: Would you rather have an infinite lifetime supply of GTS, but it's watered down to 80 proof—or an infinite supply, but it's only been aged for 2 years? Reviewing a brand-new tribute to a classic, debating impossible whiskey tradeoffs, and catching up on news—crack open a bottle and join us!
