The Franklin Fountain Root Beer
Back in October I went to Delaware, before which all I could think of when I heard of Delaware was that bit from Wayne’s World “Hi, I’m in Delaware”. After visiting, I kind of agree with them. Thankfully, I flew in and out of Philadelphia, which, unlike Delaware, has loads of things for people to [...]

Just the Sip: Stagg 24D Review
Stagg is a brand that requires no introduction to anyone remotely up to speed with the bourbon landscape. In fact, most bottles produced by Buffalo Trace are so strongly established that it feels about as familiar as ABCs. So for the sake of direction, I’ll touch on how this particular batch of Stagg differs from […]

Master Sommelier Andrea Robinson on the Future of Sonoma Wine Tasting
On New Year’s Eve in Midtown Manhattan, the kind of old money dining room that still believes in jackets and ceremony served a foie gras terrine with pumpernickel and the quiet confidence of an institution that has survived its own reinventions. The restaurant sits in the Seagram Building, in the footprint of what was once the Four Seasons, a temple of classical hospitality, as Andrea Robinson described it. A place that hangs a Picasso near the entry and makes you feel,…

How Long Does It Take to Make Gin?
The time it takes to make gin depends on the production method, the style of gin being produced, and the level of craftsmanship behind it. While large-scale distilleries can produce gin within hours, a handcrafted distillery like The Henley Distillery takes several days to produce, rest, and bottle each batch to perfection. 1. The Base […] The post How Long Does It Take to Make Gin? appeared first on The Henley Distillery .

Whisky Review: Crown Royal Canadian Whisky
We’re back with another whisky review, and this time we’re diving into one of the most widely recognized names in Canadian whisky: Crown Royal. It’s been a while since we’ve featured a Canadian whisky on the show, and if we're being honest, there’s a reason for that. Canadian whiskies often get a bad rap, especially among bourbon fans, largely because of their production methods (typically aged in used barrels instead of new charred oak, resulting in a lighter flavor profile). Still, when aged well, Canadian whiskies can hold their own. Crown Royal is known for being a highly blended product, reportedly made from up to 50 different whiskies. Around 80% of the grain is sourced from Manitoba and nearby provinces. This bottling clocks in at 80 proof and is likely aged at least three years, though the lack of an age statement keeps it vague. Today’s sample? A mini bottle that cost just 99 cents. This review is taken from our episode American Beauty (1999

Whiskey Review: Weller Antique 107 Bourbon
Introduction Today we're revisiting a longtime fan-favorite: Weller Antique 107. Also known as Old Weller Antique, OWA, or simply "Weller 107," this wheated bourbon is one of the most sought-after bottles in the Buffalo Trace lineup. At 107 proof, it sits above Weller Special Reserve and just below Weller 12 Year, though many enthusiasts claim it offers the most crowd-pleasing flavor in the lineup. This bottle's popularity exploded as part of the so-called "Poor Man's Pappy" blend (a combination of Weller Antique 107 and Weller 12 that allegedly mimics Pappy Van Winkle). But hype aside, how does it actually perform in the glass? We tracked down pours at local bourbon bars to find out. Weller Antique 107 is an undisclosed-age wheated bourbon (rumored to be 6-8 years old), made using Buffalo Trace's wheated mash bill. Let's dive into the tasting. This review is taken from our podcast episode " Pulp Fiction (1994) / Weller Antique 107 Bourbon ." Click the link to listen to this review in
