Tommyrotter…

Really a solid podcast, def one of the better bourbon specific ones out there…. I usually keep my not so humble opinion to myself but had to comment and make a note to the guys on the Tommyrotter out of New York that was mentioned in the last cast is a hidden gem; I run a liquor store out of south Florida and that has been one of my favorite friend maker bourbons for the past year….I look forward to hearing a review soon
