Join us on our latest episode where we talk about beavers and whiskey, and even better...a whiskey made from a beaver?Featured spirit: Eau de Musc from Tamworth Distilling.  Description per their website: Eau de Musc proudly features an old-world flavoring technique that uses the oil extract from the castor gland of the North American beaver, which exudes a leathery, raspberry taste, and acts to fortify the whiskey flavors. The full-bodied, two-year aged bourbon whiskey has a bolstered mouthfeel with a vanillin nose and notes of spice. The addition of birch oil, raspberry and Canadian snakeroot, a woody spice akin to ginger, comingle with the natural fruitiness of the castorerum, making the finish warm, crisp, and incredibly palatable. New Hampshire life is ruled by the wilderness, and beavers are widely prevalent, extremely territorial, and prone to overpopulation. Therefore, rural communities like Tamworth work with licensed and responsible trappers to manage the population in order to sustain the local ecosystem. To source the castoreum for the limited-edition release, the Tamworth Distilling team works with Anton Kaska, a professional trapper and outdoor skill instructor who is known for his commitment to sustainable practices. Anton provides the distillery with the castoreum sacs, which would otherwise be discarded, to produce the infused bourbon whiskey.Why in the world would anyone use beaver castor glands to make a beverage?  What other items is this used for?  Does the whiskey taste like beaver?  Only one way to find out...Special guest on this episode, our good friend Drew. https://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2018/06/16/beaver-butt-whiskey-review-eau-de-musc/707831002/https://shop.tamworthdistilling.com/product/eau-de-musc-200ml/210#newrelease #tamworth #distillery #beaver #whiskey #brandmysticism #drinkreview #podcast #isitworthit #arsenicculture  This Whiskey Is Made With Beaver Musk-E105https://www.youtube.com/@arsenicculturehttps://instagram.com/arsenicculturehttps://tiktok.com/@arsenicculturehttps://www.facebook.com/arsenicculture/https://x.com/arsenicculture

Koji is prepared by adding koji mold to steamed grains, then carefully kept in warm, humid conditions that promote growth. Rice is the most frequently used grain for making koji.Is Shochu good?  Does it really deserve to be the most consumed spirit in Japan?  Is it worth it?  Only one way to find out...Special guest on this episode is our friend Brandon from Ethereal Brewing and The Void Sake Company in Lexington, KY.https://www.satsuma.co.jp/english/con-shiru-shochu.htmlhttps://honkakushochu-awamori.jp/english/professional/shochu-production-method/koji/#newrelease #shochu #koji #spiritreviews #drinkreview #podcast #isitworthit #arsenicculture  https://www.youtube.com/@arsenicculturehttps://instagram.com/arsenicculturehttps://tiktok.com/@arsenicculturehttps://www.facebook.com/arsenicculture/https://x.com/arseniccultureShochu And The Mold That Makes IT Great-E98https://www.youtube.com/@arsenicculturehttps://instagram.com/arsenicculturehttps://tiktok.com/@arsenicculturehttps://www.facebook.com/arsenicculture/https://x.com/arsenicculture

As we head into the holiday weekend, it's the perfect time to reflect on these insights and what they mean for podcasters and listeners alike.Podcast listenership is at an all-time high, with two-thirds of the U.S. population aged 12 and up having listened to a podcast, and over a third tuning in weekly. The average time spent listening to podcasts has surged by 450% since 2014, Podcasts now constitute 11% of all audio sources and 20% of ad-supported audio sources, showing a substantial increase from previous years.We also explore the diversity of podcast listeners. Podcasting spans all generations, with significant engagement across various age groups. For example, 59% of those aged 12-34, 55% of those aged 35-54, and even 27% of those aged 55 and older listen to podcasts monthly. Gen Z, in particular, shows a strong affinity for podcasts, often spending more time with this medium than older generations, drawn by the depth of topics and unique perspectives offered.The demographic breakdown of listeners is becoming increasingly diverse. The percentage of Black Americans and Latinx Americans listening to podcasts monthly stands at 48% and 43%, respectively. Additionally, the gender gap is closing, with 45% of U.S. women now monthly podcast listeners, indicating a more balanced audience. Interestingly, female listeners tend to consume more episodes weekly compared to their male counterparts.Podcasts are not just popular; they are also effective for advertisers. An impressive 46% of weekly podcast listeners report purchasing a product or service based on a podcast ad. This statistic highlights the medium's power to drive consumer behavior and its value for advertisers.The top podcasts in the U.S. continue to draw massive audiences. Leading the list is "The Joe Rogan Experience," followed by "Crime Junkie," "The Daily" from the New York Times, "New Heights" with Jason and Travis Kelce, and "Dateline NBC." Other popular shows include "This American Life," "Call Her Daddy," "SmartLess," "Morbid," and "Stuff You Should Know."As the industry continues to grow, it presents numerous opportunities for businesses.
