B-S.E.A.: Whiskey Underground Podcast The B-S.E.A.

Part of the enjoyment of whisky is enjoying the finer things in life.  Whether that whiskey is expensive, or not, whether its paired with a nice cigar, or whether its paired with fine conversation and fine friends, the B-S.E.A. is all about the finer things.
In this new series, we decided to focus less on the science and complexity behind the whisky and more about the good company enjoying it.  In these "Finer Things" episodes, we will discuss the whiskey, no doubt, but the focus of the conversation will be centered around something we love and want to share. So sit back, pour a dram of your fine whisky and enjoy a fireside chat with Brandt and Scott.

Well, its been another hiatus, and we hate those.  But here we are again, vowing to get back to a regular schedule.  While the Bottom Shelf Matters season wont be going forward as we planned, we will still get to a few of the bottom shelf episodes that we hoped. 
Instead, we will focus on a variety of different whiskeys, sort of whatever happens to pop up in the speakeasy.
Tonight, were drinking two budget friendly scotches, one blended, one single malt.  Lets see how they compare.

One of the other bottles we drank during the first meeting of the B.S.E.A. heads of state was this Calumet 14.  Aged for 14 long years, this bourbon is well hyped...but does is live up?  Find out.  Spend your Friday evening with Brandt and Scott.

2021 has been a bit of a hectic year for everyone, Brandt and I have been no exception to that.  Back in May, we met up at my house in NJ for the first time ever.  Here are some highlights from that weekend, including two episodes that we got to sit down and record.
First up is a Glendronach 12 year old, Cask Strength Limited Release.  This was an amazing whisky that neither of us will ever forget.

Welcome to the premier of Season 3.  This year we are looking to find some of the best whiskey bargains.  Brandt and Scott are in search of the best Bourbons (under $25) and the best Scotch/World Whisky (under $35).  
This month, were drinking Early Times Kentucky Whisky and Old Forester 86 Proof Bourbon.  See which one punches above the bottom shelf and takes the lead for the best budget bourbon.

In probably the biggest surprise of the 2020 Whiskey Advent Calendar, we were introduced to a little place in Virginia, that makes the best whiskey not from Kentucky or Scotland.
Join us as we sit down and sample some of Filibuster's Single Estate Single Barrel.  Warning...we can't stop talking about this one.
