The Hazmat Experiment

Whiskey@Work ·

2026/02/18

This week on Whiskey@Work, we climb way past safe territory and straight into hazmat country.Rob and Mark post up at the Windsor Bar with Justin Henrichsen and crack bottles that most airlines would politely confiscate. We’re talking 140 proof and up. A Canadian cask strength that drinks suspiciously easy. A George T. Stagg that smells like a candy bar and hits like a freight train. And a 161 proof Wyatt Earp blend that tastes like someone tucked a cigar inside the barrel and forgot about it for 13

From Bonded to Better

Whiskey@Work ·

2026/02/11

On this episode of Whiskey@Work, Rob and Marc pour a glass of Doc Holliday 7-Year Straight Bourbon and immediately realize something important… time matters. A lot. The conversation drifts through bourbon’s recent sales slump, the rise of canned cocktails, Four Roses changing hands, and why some whiskeys disappear only to come roaring back. Along the way, they chase tangents about Canadian grudges, Frank Sinatra, dream whiskey jobs, and what makes a bottle worth revisiting. It’s one part tasting,

Corral. Myths get unpacked,

2026/01/28

In this episode of Whiskey@Work, Rob and Mark sit down with Mitch McKeithan from the Alex Johnson Hotel to talk whiskey cycles, allocation games, and why relationships matter more than hype.

Judging Bourbon by the Bottle

Whiskey@Work ·

2026/01/21

This week on Whiskey@Work, Rob and Mark crack open a bottle that looks like it belongs next to a designer lamp instead of a dusty rickhouse. Frank August Case Study No. 6 is all about first impressions, from a minimalist bottle to a surprisingly bold pour. Along the way, the guys wrestle with sourced bourbon, high proof heat, price tags that raise eyebrows, and the bigger question lurking behind the glass… does bourbon need to look a certain way to be taken seriously? It’s a laid-back conversation

Rectifiers, Rebels, and Real Whiskey

Whiskey@Work ·

2026/01/14

E.H. Taylor wasn’t friendly, flexible, or easy to work with. He was stubborn, loud, and obsessed with one thing… killing fake whiskey.In this episode of Whiskey@Work, we dig into the man behind the bottle, the rise of rectified whiskey, why the Bottled-in-Bond Act even exists, and how one relentless pain in the ass helped shape modern whiskey. Along the way, we taste E.H. Taylor Small Batch Bottled-In-Bond, argue about proof, rant about marketing, and realize that sometimes the people who won’t shut

The Vow of the Peacock

Whiskey@Work ·

2026/01/07

New year, bad decisions.Rob and Mark kick off 2026 by talking about why New Year’s resolutions usually fall apart, how ancient civilizations handled fresh starts, and why sometimes leaning into the wrong idea feels oddly right.

FAN FAVORITE: The Marshmallow Episode

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/12/17

Aired back in November 2024, this episode turned into a full-on fan favorite, and for good reason. What starts as an election day hang turns into a surprisingly deep, slightly ridiculous dive into marshmallows. Yeah… marshmallows. From ancient Egypt to campfire s’mores, the guys unpack the strange history behind one of the world’s sweetest treats, then accidentally pair it with the wrong bottle. Hotel Tango’s toasted marshmallow bourbon shows up uninvited, sparks debate, inspires cocktail ideas, and

Whiskey We Loved, Whiskey We Survived

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/12/10

Rob and Mark pour their way back through 2025, from Ireland-only Redbreast and that Seahorse-in-a-perfume-bottle, to minty Dragon’s Milk, Fiesta Fest tequilas, Lucky Bastard single malt, and the Jack Daniels Heritage Barrel that vanished in record time. They swap stories about charity raffles stacked with Pappy and Blanton’s, South Dakota’s own Black Fork Farms, a surprise Scotch awakening with Mortlach and Tomatin, and then drop big news about Mountain West Whiskey Fest moving to the historic Hotel

King of Canyon Lake and the Screaming Pulaskis

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/12/04

Rob hangs out with Justin Hendrickson, the owner of Windsor Block Bar and a volunteer firefighter who somehow balances whiskey, community events and a whole lot of chaos. They crack open Wild Turkey Triumph rye, dig into the wild Nemo Volunteer Fire Department bourbon raffle packed with Pappy 20, Blanton’s sets, vintage Turkey, Jack gift boxes and a pile of other unicorn bottles, and talk about how whiskey folks tend to show up when it matters. They even drop a little hint about Whiskey Fest 2026 at

The Exact Moment Whiskey Is Born

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/11/26

Whiskey@Work hits pause on age statements and barrel talk and zooms in on the exact second whiskey is born. Rob and Mark dig into heads, hearts, and tails, how craft distillers make those tiny, risky cuts by taste and smell, and why big column stills handle it a whole different way. Then they crack open Woodinville Founders Find, a distillery-only blend of twelve year Tennessee whiskey and fifteen year Indiana bourbon, and try to pin down why this 107 proof pour feels weirdly “meaty” without wearing

Phantom Kangaroos

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/11/20

Mark and Rob fall down a kangaroo rabbit hole after spotting the boxing 'roo on a bottle of Larrikin Bourbon. From jellybean-sized joeys and deadly kicks to phantom kangaroo sightings in places that definitely are not Australia, this one hops all over the map before landing back in Kentucky. The guys share their first impressions of Larrikin’s 8-year bottled in bond bourbon, unpack the Aussie slang behind the name, and dig into the story of founder Greg Keeley, who served in both the Royal

The Blanton’s Episode At Last

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/11/13

In this Whiskey@Work pour, Rob and Mark finally crack open Blanton’s after more than 260 episodes and give it the spotlight it probably knew it deserved all along. They get into the life of Albert Bacon Blanton, the Kentucky colonel who climbed from teenage distillery worker to the guy steering Buffalo Trace through prohibition, the Depression, floods and war. The guys talk warehouse H, single barrel quirks, why Japan gets its own Blanton’s, and how every one of those squat little bottles can hit

Toasted to Perfection

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/11/05

Rob and Mark crack open Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Heritage Barrel Toasted Barrel and dive into what makes a barrel toasted vs. charred, from Roman casks and medieval coopers to the alligator char and modern finishing moves. Michter’s, Elijah Craig, Woodford, Westland, and St. Augustine all make cameos while the guys geek out on hemicellulose, lignin, and the sweet “mouth-hug” results: creamy vanilla, caramel, banana bread vibes, a little crème brûlée. Laughs, lore, and a pour that might become

Drinking with Dragons

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/10/29

The hunt is over. After five years of chasing down a bottle, Mark and Rob finally crack open Dragon’s Milk Bottled in Bond, a bourbon born from one of the most legendary barrel aged stouts in craft beer. From Michigan brewers to whiskey makers, New Holland Brewing’s journey sparks a wild conversation that drifts from cinnamon spiced tasting notes to ancient dragon myths and movie nostalgia. It’s a whiskey adventure wrapped in fire, folklore, and a little chaos, the way dragons and good bourbon

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/10/22

Rob and Mark slide into spooky season with a glass in hand and tales that raise neck hairs. From Prohibition’s poisoned hooch and the Jake Leg shuffle to radiator‐still lore, cursed “blind barrels,” and that clingy whiskey fungus, it’s all here. The guys also dive into the angels’ share, the devil’s cut, and why some barrels seem to keep a little soul for themselves. Halloween vibes, warm pours, zero snobbery. Hosted on Acast.

The Beast of Dufftown

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/10/15

This one started as payback. A friend drained Mark’s rare Redbreast bottle, so naturally the guys tracked down a Scotch he loves and drank it on air. That Scotch? Mortlach 16, the Beast of Dufftown. From a medieval churchyard in the Highlands to the mad genius who built its six stills and invented the mysterious “2.81 distillation,” this story winds through battles, blenders, and the birth of Glenfiddich. By the end, they raise a glass to the Wee Witchie, the science of Scotch, and a toast that’s

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/10/01

Fitzgerald’s legendary “private stash” to why this wheated classic still stands out today.

A Wee Bit Over Served

Whiskey@Work ·

2025/09/24

Pack your bags and maybe a liver or two because Whiskey@Work went international. From Rob’s first ever trip overseas to Houston’s nonstop chatter, the guys covered ground from Inverness to Edinburgh with a pit stop in London. Along the way they sipped drams at Glenfiddich, Tomatin, Benromach, GlenAllachie, Cardhu, Glen Garioch, and Holyrood. They ducked into countless pubs, wandered castles that have seen centuries of history, and braved ghost tours in bone stacked graveyards. This episode is equal
