We’ll dive into the history of whiskey, uncover some surprising bourbon facts, talk about what makes bourbon uniquely American, and explore the moments that helped turn it into the legendary spirit it is today. But we’re not just talking about history… we’re drinking it. 🥃 We’ve each brought five bottles, with every pour representing a different piece of bourbon heritage. From historic names and classic styles to bottles that represent the evolution of bourbon, each pour has a story to tell. 📜 In this episode: • The history of whiskey and bourbon • Bourbon Heritage Month and why it matters • Interesting bourbon facts and forgotten history • The people, places, and traditions that shaped bourbon • 5 bottles representing different parts of bourbon heritage • Tasting notes, stories, opinions, and plenty of Nerdz conversation • And, of course, some good old-fashioned whiskey nerdiness So grab your favorite Glencairn, pour yourself something special, and raise a glass to the history behind the bottle.

    Pretty Fly for a Rye Guy

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Bourbon Nerdz, we’re turning up the spice and diving headfirst into the bold, complex world of rye whiskey. From peppery kick to herbal depth, we break down what makes rye such a unique (and sometimes misunderstood) pour. We highlight some of our personal favorite ryes—from everyday sippers to standout bottles worth hunting—while also pointing out the best bang-for-your-buck options that deliver serious flavor without wrecking your wallet. New to rye? We’ve got you covered. We talk “bourbon-friendly” ryes that ease you into the category without overwhelming your palate, making this the perfect starting point for anyone rye-curious but not quite ready to go full spice bomb. Whether you’re a seasoned rye guy or just getting your feet wet, this episode is packed with pours, opinions, and plenty of that Bourbon Nerdz energy. 🥃 Support the show

From bold barrel proofs to smooth everyday sippers, we’re calling it like we taste it. But it wouldn’t be Bourbon Nerdz without a detour into the nerd side of things. We also dive into our favorite movies and TV shows of the year so far, talking about what’s lived up to the hype, what caught us off guard, and what’s worth your time. So pour yourself something strong and join us as we look back at the best of the year… so far. Support the show
