The idea for Bitches & Bourbon was born in a garage bar during the initial 2020 COVID quarantine. Two epicurean women discovered early in our friendship that we both prefer whiskey to any other adult beverage. Provoked by our husbands, we decided that for $12 we could own the domain bitchesandbourbon.com. We would figure out what to do with it later. During the pursuit of finding our next bottle, we learned more about the art of whiskey crafting, the intersections of other spirits, and the different ways in which these flavor profiles enhance enjoyment in our lives. We also encountered many other women who wanted to know more as well but didn't feel comfortable in the space for a variety of reasons. Our husbands suggested a podcast.

    Japanese Whisky with Chuck Johnson

    Originally recorded: 20230728 Length: 00:41:07 Should we have recorded two shows in one night? Probably not. But Ape and Reba double-booked themselves and we are nothing if not professionals.

    Originally recorded: 20231220 Length: 02:12:48 Bonus Episode: The Drunk Guys and Cormac McCarthy The Drunk Guys Book Club Podcast invited the Bitches over to join their discussion of Cormac McCarthy's All the Pretty Horses. Not only did an amazing discussion happen, but the guys were nice enough to handle all the editing duties. So, Ape decided to take the gift and send it out to you just the way they sent it to her – with a quick hello added in so she could feel somewhat useful. So, I suppose you can call this a bonus episode. I love that y'all hang out here, but you should really go check them out over there. Links for this episode The Drunk Guys Book Club

    All the Smoke - Iron Smoke Bourbon & Smokehead Scotch

    Originally recorded: 20230712 Length: 39:47 Yes, yes that is the "Eye of the Tiger" playing in the opening. Did we change our theme music? No. But we did have a huge technical malfunction that caused Ape to cuss more than even she would publish on air. It took the most iconic franchise of all time (I said what I said, fight me) to get my mind right…but, it worked. We give you "Take 2." P.S. Yes. I am aware I missed the opportunity to do the whole "One Bourbon, one Scotch, one Beer" thing. I wish I could tell you that it was on purpose because that would be legitimate; it's pretty low hanging fruit if we are all being honest. But alas, it was not on purpose and I would have plucked that pretty little mango right off it's on the ground branch – I just didn't think of it until I was in the editing process. You can't win them all… Iron Smoke & Smokehead Purchase details: Iron Smoke Location: Gift Date: 7/1/2023 Cost: Type: Bourbon Distillery: Iron Smoke Distillery Bottled in: Fairport, NY Proof: (% ABV) 40 (Proof) 80 Composition: four grain with apple wood smoked wheat Age: 2 years   Purchase details: Smokehead Location: ???
