Episode Fifty Three Part 2

Ever wondered why some of your favorite high-proof whiskeys don't cost a fortune? Join us as we dive deep into the world of whiskey sourcing, uncovering the mysteries behind store picks and private labels from major retailers like Costco and Total Wine.

In this episode, we break down how distilleries like Barton 1792 manage their barrel selections and why you might be getting a great deal on those 125-proof single barrels. We'll also discuss the transparency (or lack thereof) in the whiskey industry, and how it impacts your buying decisions.

But that's not all! We share our experiences with a unique cigar from JC Newman and explore how it pairs with a special Ezra Brooks cask strength single barrel. Plus, we touch on the recent hurricane's impact on Florida, sending our best wishes to those affected.

So pour yourself a glass, light up a fine cigar, and join us for an episode filled with insights, rants, and a touch of humor. Cheers!
