Ep. 20: Raj Bhakta, Bhakta Spirits

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/12/08

This is one for the record books – I taste through four high-end brandies from Bhakta Spirits with none other than Raj Bhakta himself. This is a different type of episode right from the start. Bhakta Spirits’ story comes out through the conversation, but it’s really about the spirits themselves. From a decades-old Armagnac and Calvados blend to a pair of century-and-a-half-old brandies, a single word emerges: quality. To put it bluntly, this shit is the real deal.

Ep. 18: Wigle Whiskey

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/11/17

Hey folks, welcome to episode 18 of the Whiskey Ring Podcast! My guest for this episode is Michael Foglia from Wigle Whiskey in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This is a fun one – Wigle is another off-the-wall distillery that loves to try something different. Go to their website and see how many expressions they have (or if you’re a Patreon subscriber and watching the video, see the wall behind Michael as we talk) then consider they’re only producing about 26,000 proof gallons a year.

2021/11/03

Hey folks, welcome to episode 17 of the Whiskey Ring Podcast! My guest for this episode is Stefan van Eycken, author of Whisky Rising: The Definitive Guide to the Finest Whiskies and Distillers of Japan. The Nonjatta Blog Stefan’s Whisky Magazine Profile Stefan is simultaneously one of the most important writers on Japanese whisky and perhaps one of the most unknown on this side of the Pacific. He’s been in Japan since 2000, when you could find a bottle of Karuizawa on the shelf for pittance

Ep. 16: Kelvin Cooperage

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/10/20

Hey folks, welcome to episode 16 of the Whiskey Ring Podcast! My guests for this episode are Paul McLaughlin, Martin Purvis, and William Hornaday of Kelvin Cooperage. If you’ve listened to earlier episodes, you know I’ve been excited to bring on a cooperage – so much of what we all love about whiskey and other aged spirits comes from the barrel, up to 80% depending on who you listen to. But how often do you really think about how that barrel is made? Who’s making them? How are people trained to

Ep. 15: Westward Whiskey and Miles Munroe

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/10/06

Hey folks, welcome to episode 15 of the Whiskey Ring Podcast! My guest for this episode is Miles Munroe of Westward Whiskey, based in Portland, Oregon. This podcast marks a big turning point for the podcast and the site. First off, Westward is the first American Single Malt producer I’ve had on…I think…might have to check through the little notes but I’m pretty sure that’s right. Second, Westward sent a full bottle of their new cask strength single malt to taste and review before the episode

Ep. 14: Rabbit Hole Distillery with Adam Edwards

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/09/22

Episode 14! Welcome to the Whiskey Ring Podcast where we’re bringing you the people who make whiskey interesting. Joining me today is Adam Edwards, Digital Brand Ambassador for Rabbit Hole. Adam and I met during a virtual tasting almost exactly a year ago. It’s a fun memory to reach back to – by this point a year ago, the website was just starting up, the podcast was still several months in the future, and I was ramping up my tasting notes in almost every way possible. I’d purchased my first

Ep. 13: Stauning Distillery and Alex Munch

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/09/08

Lucky Episode 13! Welcome to the Whiskey Ring Podcast where we’re bringing you the people who make whiskey interesting. Today’s podcast is with Stauning Whisky all the way from Denmark. I came across Stauning by accident, if I’m being honest, but was taken with their story and their process. Plus, it’s the first Danish whisky I’ve tried, so either way I had questions. Joining me to answer those questions is Alex Munch, who co-founded Stauning along with eight friends (that’s nine total for

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/08/25

Episode 12! Welcome to the Whiskey Ring Podcast where we’re bringing you the people who make whiskey interesting. New tagline – let me know what you think of it. Today, we’re going across the Great Lakes to visit Great Lakes Distillery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I’m joined by Ross Salchow, a longtime employee whose title would never cover the range of work he does. Great Lakes was the first distillery I ever visited in person. Picture it: Milwaukee, 2016. I was on a business trip for the

Ep. 11: David Thompson, Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/08/11

Episode 11! Today, we’re going across the pond to the North of England and Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery. I’m joined by founder and Managing Director, David Thompson. Dave is a farmer at heart, and Yorkshire is his garden. Yorkshire is the largest county in England by far and has ample space to grow grain and everything you need for distilling. And yet, like much of the rest of England, distilleries are few and far between compared to its Northern and Western neighbors. I ask Dave why this

2021/07/28

Episode 10! We're bringing out the big guns now (after Michter's, is there such a thing?) Today's episode is with Lew Bryson, longtime spirits and beer writer, author, taster, and all-around great guy. Lew is a literal spirit guide for me - his book Tasting Whiskey kickstarted my whiskey tasting journey, and his follow-up, Whiskey Masterclass, gave the deep dive into each part of the process any serious whiskey lover could want. His blog, Seen Through a Glass, chronicles his journeys through

Hi Whiskey Ringers, it is episode 8! Thank you so much for listening and please share with your friends, family, and fellow whiskey lovers. This is part one of a special, two-part episode with Dan McKee and Andrea Wilson of Michter’s Distillery. I am beyond excited to have both Dan and Andrea on the podcast after just seven episodes. Not only were they generous with their time, they were generous in another way, too…but more on that later. Side note: I wasn’t able to get my friend Mike Frey on the

Hi Whiskey Ringers, it is episode 7! Thank you so much for listening and please share with your friends, family, and fellow whiskey lovers. On this episode, I’ve got Paul Coughlin, founder of Taconic Distillery in New York’s Hudson Valley. New York whiskey - bourbon, rye, single malts - is fascinating and deeply personal to me. I love talking to friends and distillers throughout New York about different styles, the history of distilling in New York, and what makes New York unique in the distilling

Hi Whiskey Ringers! It took 6 episodes, but I got to talk to my favorite Scottish distillery, Highland Park. My guest, Martin Markvardsen, is their Senior Brand Ambassador. We talk peat, non-chill filtering, how whisky changes over the years, Islay vs Orkney vs other types of smoke/profiles, and more.

Ep. 5: Alan Bishop, Spirits of French Lick

The Whiskey Ring Podcast ·

2021/06/04

Episode 5! This one’s a kicker, Whiskey Ringers. A nearly 2-hour conversation with the one-and-only Alan Bishop, Master Distiller of Spirits of French Lick Distillery in French Lick, Indiana. If you haven’t guessed by now (or this is your first episode), I’m a whiskey nerd/geek and proud of it. Thankfully, Alan is just the person to talk to. Getting into the details of whiskey making - from naming his stills to using different grains - was a thrill. Needless to say, Alan will be back on a future

Episode 4! We’re on a roll. This episode, I talk with Dave Schmier of Proof and Wood Ventures. Proof and Wood is an unabashed non-distilling producer. Dave is transparent that most of his stock is from MGP (with a few exceptions like The Justice), and beyond that he’s transparent about as much as possible in his products. Mashbills, ages, sources, chances are you can find the info on the website or in an interview with Dave. Since starting Proof and Wood in 2015 and after selling the Redemption

Episode 3 is here! Coming out on Cinco de Mayo (also known as Cinco de Gato in our household). On this episode, I'm joined by Andy Faris and Jeff Murphy of JK Williams Distilling. Andy, Jeff, and the JK Williams Team are distilling and producing out of Peoria, Illinois, the former Whiskey Capital of the World. Today, that whiskey history is a long-gone legacy.....or is it? To hear Andy and Jeff talk about it, that legacy was only dormant, and now it's time for whiskey to rise again on the banks of

After devoting three full weeks to it, I wanted to bring on a special guest to talk about what makes Japanese whisky unique. Please welcome Jay Cole, US Ambassador for Kaiyō, as the Whiskey Ring Podcast's second guest. Jay is a native Massachusettsan (yep, that's the real word!) but represents one of the most exciting Japanese whisky producers of the moment. He's also
