    Grand Old Parr Vertical Tasting

    Join us for a vertical tasting of two expressions from the iconic Grand Old Parr brand – the 12-Year and 18-Year blended Scotch whiskies. We explore the rich history of Old Parr, and discuss the merits of blends versus single malts. Could Old Parr be a new go to rail whisky at the bar? Old Parr Tasting Details: 12-Year-Old: 40% ABV, $29.99 MSRP 18-Year-Old: 40% ABV, $69.99 MSRP Tune in as we take you through the tasting notes, share insights about the whisky's connection to Cragganmore and Glendullan distilleries, and discuss our impressions of these time-honored Scotch whiskies. Whether you prefer your whisky neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail, this episode will give you plenty to think about the next time you reach for a dram of Old Parr. And as always, dram in good health! #whiskysnobsoflowermoco #dramingoodhealth #slaintemhath #whiskey #whisky #podcast #whiskypodcast #blendedscotch #oldparr #diageo

    The Lagavulin Offerman Editions

    Nick Offerman, much like his Parks and Recreation character Ron Swanson, loves his Lagavulin! So much so that Lagavulin partnered with Nick on a limited release series of Offerman branded expressions. The 2022 release presented a perfect opportunity to test Nick’s talent for picking whisky. Join us for a side-by-side tasting of Lagavulin’s three releases in the Offerman series:  Lagavulin 11 yo Offerman Edition #1, 46.0% abv Lagavulin 11 yo Offerman Edition #2 Guinness Cask 46.0% abv Lagavulin 11 yo Offerman Edition #3 Charred Oak Cask 46.0% abv   Is the Offerman Edition series just another trivial marketing campaign based on a celebrity endorsement, or does Nick Offerman have a genuinely good palate for whisky? Listen in to find out!   And as always, dram in good health!  #whiskysnobsoflowermoco #dramingoodhealth #slaintemhath #whiskey #whisky #podcast #whiskypodcast #singlemalt #lagavulin #nickofferman #ronswanson

    Sherry vs. Sulphur: Aberlour A'bunadh, Craigellachie 23, and Famous Grouse 18

    In this episode, we test our palates in a head-to-head blind tasting of an ex-sherry whisky versus an ex-sherry with a touch of sulphur. To get our palates ready for some sherry, our sherry baseline for this tasting is none other than Aberlour A'Bunadh (Batch 57). Join us to see if we're able to correctly identify the sample with sulphur! We also discuss the quality-to-price ratio difference between the higher-end Craigellachie 23 and more budget-conscious Famous Grouse 18… and it may not turn out the way you expect! This episode's drams are: Aberlour A'Bunadh Batch 57 (60.7% ABV) Craigellachie 23 (46.0% ABV) (blind) Famous Grouse 18 (43.0% ABV) (blind) As always, dram in good health! #whiskysnobsoflowermoco #dramingoodhealth #socialdistancing #slaintemhath #whiskey #whisky #podcast #whiskypodcast #aberlour #mysterydram #blindtasting

    Whisky Old Enough to Drink: Redbreast 21, Highland Park 28, and Ardbeg 21

    As a famous movie star once quipped, "Age is just a number. It's totally irrelevant unless of course, you happen to be a bottle of [whisky]." We couldn't agree more! Age statements on whisky are more relevant than ever, especially as distilleries continue to increase the number of non-age stated (NAS) releases. But how does age correlate with quality, taste, and value? Join us as we tackle this topic from all angles, accompanied by a trio of drams old enough to drink! This episode's drams are: Redbreast 21 (46.0% abv) Cadenhead's Highland Park 28 (48.8% abv) Ardbeg 21 (46.0% abv) As always, dram in good health! #whiskysnobsoflowermoco #dramingoodhealth #socialdistancing #slaintemhath #whiskey #whisky #podcast #whiskypodcast #redbreast #highlandpark #ardbeg
