We love it when an established brand stretches its wings and tries something different. For decades, there was only one Maker’s Mark expression, then came the Maker’s 46 (which we love!), then the Cask Strength, and so on and so on… Their latest release is called Maker’s Mark […]
American football has its quarterback, baseball has its pitcher, basketball has its point guard, and the whisk(e)y world has its Master Distiller, Master Blender, and Distillery Manager. We consider these people as impact players. Lochlea Distillery’s impact player is John Campbell. He’s their Production Manager and Master Blender […]
Way back at the end of Summer 2023, we were lucky enough to have Joe Beatrice and Tripp Stimson of Barrell Craft Spirits on our What We Watch When We Drink podcast to discuss their company and how they create new whisky expressions while sipping on three of […]
We love it when we get to try a new whisky with a unique back story… Fior Blended Scotch Whisky was created by US Marine Corps veteran, Major Eric Dominijanni, a Scotch whisky aficionado that routinely poured his dregs into an Infinity Bottle which developed into a blend […]

Way back in early June of 2023, I headed to the Big Apple for this year’s Kiddushfest where I met up with the West Coast Office and the former NYC Office for an evening of delicious Kosher BBQ and whisky. During the event, a raffle was held to […]
We’ve yet to venture north to The Granite State (aka New Hampshire), but based upon all of the deliciously wacky concoctions that we’ve sampled from a New Hampshire establishment that goes by the name Tamworth Distilling, we’re thinking we need to get to the boozemobile ASAP. As of […]
We’ve had many a Woodford Reserve expression over the years and would consider ourselves to be overall fans of the brand. Their core and Double Oaked expressions are particularly tasty! On today’s Tasting at The Murder Table, we’re reviewing their Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey which was purchased by […]
Dogfish Head is no stranger to collaborations when it comes to new brew development. The most epic one that we can remember was Saison Du BUFF from way back in 2010 which was a three way collaboration between Dogfish Head, Stone, and Victory. This time around, they teamed […]
We have had the good fortune of reviewing three very different Holmes Cay Rum expressions over the past couple years. When most of us think Rum, we think the Caribbean, but as we’ve learned, Rum, much like whisky, can be made anywhere. The two Holmes Cay Rums that […]
