There’s a divide between Scotland and Ireland as fierce as the Protestant/Catholic split during the Thirty Years’ War or the battles between Sunnis and Shias in the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s. It’s the debate over who invented whisky. Both Ireland and Scotland claim to have originated the spirit. Ireland cites its early monastic traditions and the term "uisce beatha" (Gaelic for "water of life") as evidence of whisky production dating back to the 12th century. Scotland, however, argues that its distillation practices, documented in the 1494 Exchequer Rolls mentioning "aqua vitae," predate Ireland’s clear records and point to their refined techniques in the Highlands. Irish advocates emphasize that their missionaries spread distillation knowledge to Scotland, while Scots counter that their innovations in barrel aging and malting set whisky apart as a distinctly Scottish craft. The argument often hinges on differing definitions of what constitutes "whisky," with no definitive proof resolving the dispute, leaving both sides to proudly defend their heritage. Whisky stands out from other alcohols, like beer, due to its intricate production process, which relies on advanced distillation technology to create a high-potency spirit from fermented grains. The use of oak barrels for aging imparts complex flavors, such as vanilla, caramel, and smoky notes, giving whisky its distinctive depth and character. Today’s guest is Noah Rothbaum, a world-renowned drinks expert and author of The Whiskey Bible: A Complete Guide to the World’s Greatest Spirit. He reveals the history and lore of whisky. We discuss the possibly 5,000-year history of distillation and whisky, how phylloxera wiped out Europe’s vineyards and decimated the market for wine in the early 19th century but kickstarted interest in spirits, how Americans created a separate and distinct spirit, and the future of the drink.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a text In this episode, we turn up the volume on Pearl, the final and most defining album of Janis Joplin's remarkable career. Released just months after her death in 1970, Pearl captures both the wild, unfiltered energy and the heartbreaking vulnerability that made Janis a once-in-a-generation voice. We explore how she poured her soul into songs like “Cry Baby,” “Mercedes Benz,” and “Me and Bobby McGee,” crafting a record that feels both triumphant and tragically final.Support the showBrowse the 33/24 Archives: Check out the backroom!

Jim and Todd take the show on the road to the beautiful Elkwood Farm in Midway, Kentucky, home of Bluegrass Distillers. They sit down with friend of the show Sam Rock for his third appearance to discuss the distillery's incredible evolution and taste through a stellar lineup of their unique whiskeys. Sam shares the story of their new home, a historic farm they purchased in 2020 and transformed into a premier grain-to-glass distillery, complete with a stunning, speakeasy-style tasting room. The tasting journey begins with Bluegrass Distillers' signature 7-Year-Old Blue Corn Bourbon. Sam delves into the agricultural challenges and rewards of growing their own non-GMO blue corn, which imparts a distinctively nutty and balanced flavor compared to traditional yellow corn. This Bottled-in-Bond expression, made on their original pot still, offers a fantastic mouthfeel and a profile driven by the primary grain, a testament to the influence of unique corn varietals. Next, they sample the Midway 'Lee's Branch' Rye, a 7-year-old rye finished in toasted French oak barrels. This expression is part of the 'Midway' brand, a line of finished ryes that pays homage to the history of their new hometown. The hosts explore its complex notes of minty spice, toasty marshmallow, and a hint of Christmas spice, making for a perfect sipping rye. The third pour is a special single-barrel selection of their Toasted Oak Bourbon, bottled for the Bourbon Burn bike ride. Sam explains their double-barreling process, which involves reconditioning and toasting their own used barrels to bring sugars to the surface, creating a consistently sweet and balanced profile with notes of s'mores, toasted marshmallow, and rich chocolate. The lineup continues with a spectacular Spanish Oak Finished Bourbon. Sam recounts his journey to Spain during the pandemic-era barrel shortage, where he discovered a family-run cooperage that handcrafts barrels from aged staves. This 11-year-old sourced bourbon is finished in these unique Spanish Oak barrels, resulting in a deep mahogany color and a rich, savory flavor profile with a spicy, drying finish that captivates the hosts. To top off an incredible tasting, Sam brings out a bonus pour: a phenomenal 18-Year-Old Bourbon. This well-aged whiskey defies expectations, presenting not just oak and leather but a surprising and delightful burst of fruit, including notes of burnt cherry, sweet cream, and holiday fruitcake. The episode is a deep dive into what makes a modern distillery thrive, touching on the evolution of the bourbon consumer, the importance of authenticity, and the exciting future for Bluegrass Distillers, including plans for a restaurant, a bourbon club, and community events at their beautiful Midway location.

Rich sits down with coach and recovery advocate Jennifer Chase, whose life spans both sides of addiction—as the daughter of an alcoholic, a woman in long-term recovery, and the mother of a recovering addict. She shares how trauma, chronic pain, and over-prescription pulled her into dependency, and how connection, forgiveness, and firm, loving boundaries rebuilt her family.

Bespoken Spirits isn't your typical whiskey distillery. Yes, they're based in the American bourbon heartland of Lexington, Kentucky, and yes, they often make private label whiskeys for clients. But everything from how Bespoken Spirits distills their whiskey to how they market it is done with the help of AI. Jordan Spitzer, their head of flavor, can finish a whiskey in days instead of years—while precisely crafting its taste—using their machine-learning backed approach. And Wane Lindsey, their director of marketing, credits AI tools with helping his tiny team punch way above their weight.The result is a whiskey that may not be traditional, but still tastes great—and in a fraction of the time it would otherwise take. That's time they can spend on the creative side of their craft and the work that has the most meaning: building brands and bespoke spirits that people will want to drink.On this episode, Jordan and Wane share how AI has helped them explore creative new ways to make and market whiskey—and why, no matter how smart our tools get, there's still no substitute for human taste.You can learn more about Bespoken Spirits at bespokenspirits.com~ ~ ~Working Smarter is brought to you by Dropbox Dash—the AI universal search and knowledge management tool from Dropbox.

This week, Big Chief takes The Whiskey Trip deep into the beating heart of Branch, Louisiana, where faith, family, and providence have tilled the same soil for generations. Here he sits with Mike Fruge, the man behind J.T. Meleck Distillery, who turned a family rice farm into a living testament of Louisiana's spirit and soul. The Meleck family came to Louisiana from Germany in 1896, settling among the French Creole communities and learning to make the best out of the land God gave them. Over the decades, their devotion became their destiny, rice fields that once fed families now fill glasses with a whiskey born of hard work, humility, and providence itself. The journey begins with their Small Batch Rice Whiskey at 96 proof, soft, warm, and familiar, like rice pudding kissed with cinnamon straight from Grandma's kitchen. Then, the throttle opens with their High Proof Small Batch at 118 proof, where sassafras tea and clove spice rise up like the Cajun wind across the fields — rich, bold, and full of character. But the final pour? That's where the road hits full stride. Big Chief and Mike close the ride with a Single Barrel Rice Whiskey, hand-selected by Spec's, blazing in at 120.9 proof. It's a powerhouse of flavor and finesse, a whiskey that will knock your socks clean off and stand toe-to-toe with any bourbon born north of the bayou. This episode is a testament to what happens when faith meets fire, when heritage meets heat and when a dream becomes destiny in every drop of Louisiana gold. So pour a glass, take a deep breath, and hang on tight, because this week's Whiskey Trip is one you'll feel in your chest and remember in your soul.

Oregon Spirit Distillers (Bend, OR) WF073 Over the last 3 months, I've been scouring the United States for distilleries to list in my upcoming Experiencing American Whiskey book. But I've also been trying to find other things that would help whiskey fans discover new distilleries in each state. It was while trying to learn about Oregon's whiskey festivals that I was introduced to Brad Irwin, co-founder of Oregon Spirit Distillers. Brad and his wife Kathy run the annual Oregon Whiskey Festival each September at their distillery. It is just the kind of festival I was look for. So when it came time to plan out a trip to Oregon for a distillery visit on my Great 48 Tour, I thought, maybe I should stop by and see what this distillery is all about. Join me as I chat with Brad about starting with a wheat whiskey, how it differs from a "wheater" and talk about why the classics are always the best. Plus, I'll be popping into a store that many of you probably thought has long since disappeared.

The week ended with President Trump issuing a proclamation celebrating Columbus Day, rather than Indigenous People's Day as the identitarians and western-guilt mongers have crammed down on us for the last generation, and it put us in the frame of mind of Leo Strauss, who called Machiavelli "that greater Columbus." Maybe Trump is a Columbus of sorts, sailing precariously into the Blue State oceans to drain swamps, etc. It's worth a shot.But much of the show revolves around discussion of why so many leftists (like Katie Porter and Jay Jones) are such horrible people, whether we are in fact much closer to a civil war that we could have conceived, but also saving time to console John over the ignominious loss of his beloved Phillies, and—being certified dog lovers—honoring the passing of Lily, the beloved pet of one of our faithful listeners whose dog literally ate up one of our books.

Need a Gorgeous Diwali Outfit? Nimisha Aunty Will Take Care of You On a recent weekend, a Morgan Hill home's two-car garage was transformed into something dazzling. Shoppers tried on embroidered Indian outfits and excitedly chatted in Hindi and Gujarati. This is Nivy's Nook, the homegrown boutique Nimisha Jadav runs out of her garage. As part of our series about about people spreading joy and building connection in their communities, The California Report's intern Srishti Prabha found that while people may come here looking for saris, chaniya cholis and salwar kameez, they leave with so much more. After Nearly 2 Years of War in Gaza, More LA Rabbis Push Back This week marked the second anniversary of the October 7th attacks. And news of an initial cease fire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas is offering some hope of ending the war in Gaza. Even before this preliminary agreement was announced, Reporter Benjamin Gottlieb had been talking with Jewish leaders in Los Angeles, who've been taking a very public stance against the war – and the actions of the Israeli Government – for the first time in two years. The West Coast's First Naval Base Is Now A Whiskey Distillery Californians have made whiskey since the Gold Rush, but craft bourbon has taken off in the last couple decades, with as many as 150 distilleries here in the state. For her series California Foodways, Lisa Morehouse visited a distillery in Solano County that's producing whiskey at a location where the Navy once built ships and submarines.

In this smokey, robust conversation with cigar and whiskey expert Maggie Kimberl (@lougirl502), some of the topics we discuss include: A working definition of “cigar blend whiskey,” plus some specific thoughts on the ideal proof point for these types of blends. The two primary pairing strategies that you can use to pair any two items in the flavor world, whether you're talking about wine and food, whiskey and cigars, or even building the perfect charcuterie bite. How to think about “flexibility” in the whiskey and cigar pairing space. Essentially: is a given whiskey designed to pair with a wide range of cigars, or has a blender designed it to pair with one cigar in particular? Then, we look at cigars. We talk about how a cigar is going to change as you smoke it, how to think about size metrics like shape and ring gauge relative to other factors like robustness and country of origin, and the best way to leverage online reviews and your local tobacconist to help you navigate the scene. We wrap up by talking about some of the more recent trends and collaborations in the whiskey and cigar world, exploring certain ways in which cigar blends and pairing collaborations are getting better, and even more complex at the same time. Along the way, we cover what your breakfast beverage of choice says about your taste in cigars, which $25 bottle of whiskey Maggie ended up pairing with a $1000 cigar, the results of her 7-month Manhattan study, and much, much more.
Although most people probably think whiskey is our favorite beverage, it's actually coffee, which is why we were intrigued with this new Bourbon infused with coffee beans when we featured it on a news episode a few months ago. But is it too coffee forward? Not enough? Or does sit perfectly at the junction between our two favorite liquids? And what the hell is a Bib & Tucker? Well, you know what to do to find out!

That's how our Bourbon on the Banks weekend really started: a risky trade of perfect couch seats for a bucket-list pour, followed by a blur of Whiskey Thief hospitality, House of Commons dusties, and a festival tent that finally felt dialed in. We brought the mics, the Glencairns, and the stories; the river brought the rest.From there, we chased flavor and history. Limestone Branch joined us for cigars and their new eight-year bourbon in a replica 1850s limestone bottle. We unpacked a gift with weight: Bardstown's cathedral oak finish, made from French oak harvested for the Notre Dame rebuild, signed by Steve Nally for a birthday we plan to toast with friends. These aren't just bottles—they're chapters about craftsmanship, aging, sourcing, and the people who make it all possible.Then the breakdown began. We put Augusta Distillery's 13-year single barrel (140.8 proof) under the glass with our Barrel Bottle Breakdown scoring. The nose felt like molasses and brown sugar with a sneaky chocolate-peanut snap; the body coated and lingered; the palate delivered vanilla, caramel, cherry, and leather with the kind of confidence you expect from a 13-year. The twist? A medium finish that chose restraint over the chest-thumping “hug” you'd predict at hazmat. To test our instincts, we staged a head-to-head with Augusta Revival 13 (141 proof): Revival brought the warmth and length; Augusta 13 brought the polish and poise. Depending on your style—hug or harmony—you'll have a favorite.If you care about rare pours, hazmat bourbons, OFC lore, and why House of Commons belongs on your Frankfort map, this one's for you.

If you've been to their distillery in Louisville or read one of their bottles you have probably encountered the claim that that Old Forester was "the first bottled Bourbon." The story suggests that in 1870, a former pharmaceutical rep George Garvin Brown began placing whiskey in sealed bottles and putting his signature on them to show he stood behind the safety and quality of the whiskey. It's a great story. But is it true? Join me in this pilot episode of a potential new Whiskey Lore series, as I dig through old newspapers and archives to seek out the deeper story of who George Garvin Brown was, more about this fine spirit known as Old Forester, and how much of the story is truth and how much of it is lore. And if you enjoy this kind of deep-dive whiskey investigation and want to help this independent podcaster bring more episodes like it to life, join the Whiskey Lore Speakeasy at patreon.com/whiskeylore It is time to disrupt some whiskey history! Cheers and slainte mhath, Drew
