Samā Cellars
Chaz Bangur of Samā Cellars Growing up in India, Chaz Bangur did not drink wine or any other form of alcohol. It was taboo in many families. Graduate study for a PhD in Biochemistry first brought him to the US in 1993, specifically to Buffalo, New York. In 1999, he moved to Seattle where he worked in biotech on developing innovative cancer therapies. He also completed an MBA in technology management at the University of Washington, and eventually went to work for Microsoft. He developed friendships with people interested in wine, and they took him on trips to Woodinville and, eventually, to Eastern Washington vineyards and wineries. He fell in love not only with WA wine, but also with the winemaking process, which he discussed with all the winemakers he met. When his daughter went away to college, he decided to enroll in the Northwest Wine Academy to learn how to make wine on a commercial scale. Chaz’s first vintage was 2022, and he opened his

The Best Bourbons of 2025, According to the Prestigious L.A. Spirits Awards
There’s something timeless about bourbon. It’s bold yet nuanced, steeped in tradition but constantly evolving . Whether you prefer it neat, on the rocks, or mixed into a classic cocktail, a great bourbon delivers more than flavor—it delivers a story. And in 2025, that story is richer than ever. Distillers are pushing boundaries with heritage grains, experimental finishes, and age statements that speak to patience and purpose. From wheated expressions to rum cask finishes, today’s bourbons are more diverse, daring, and downright delicious than ever before. At the center of this renaissance stands the L.A. Spirits Awards , where some of the country’s top tasters blind-judge the best of the best. The result? A list of standout bottles that represent the pinnacle of the craft. These are all Platinum Medal Winners , recognized for their excellence in aroma, flavor, balance, and complexity. If you’re looking to discover a new favorite—or just want to see who’s setting the bar—th

Whiskey Review: Green River 250th U.S. Army Special Anniversary Bourbon
Introduction We’re excited for this one: Green River’s 250th Anniversary Special Release honoring the United States Army. This is a four-year age-stated bourbon that also includes up to seven-year-old whiskey in the blend. The mash bill is 75% corn, 15% rye, and 10% malted barley. Bottled at 111.1 proof, it retails for $49.99. We love Green River: between the quality of their regular lineup and the value they deliver, they’ve built a reputation that’s hard to beat—without ever feeling like “bargain bin” whiskey. Nose Bob: Honestly, the first thing I’m getting is ethanol. It’s a little more alcohol-forward than their typical releases. Now, it’s almost barrel proof here, but we’ve had their full proof many times and I think that has a little more character. This just leans more alcohol-forward. There’s a bit of minerality here too, almost like mineral water. If this were in a blind, I’d give it 6.5/10 on the no

Whiskey Review: Beach Whiskey Island Coconut
Introduction We’re taking a break from our usual straight whiskey reviews to try something a little different: Beach Whiskey Island Coconut . The label on the bottle technically refers to the brand as “American Beach,” but the brand refers to itself simply as “Beach Whiskey.” This is a 52-proof coconut-flavored whiskey liqueur made from white dog as its base spirit. Normally, you’d expect coconut flavor in a rum or vodka-based liqueur, but here they’re using whiskey, and we think that’s a brilliant idea. With whiskey production at an all-time high and demand starting to cool off, why not experiment? Coconut whiskey is a new angle in the flavored spirits market, and we’re curious to see how it stacks up, especially at just $20 a bottle . They also make a cinnamon version, but today we’re focusing on the Island Coconut. While we won’t be giving full category scores for this one (since it’s not a traditional whiskey),

Whiskey Review: Basil Hayden Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Introduction We’re well underway on Season 10 of the podcast, and returning with a bottle that sparked strong opinions from us in the past: Basil Hayden Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey . Formerly known as “Basil Hayden’s,” this small batch bourbon from Beam Suntory dropped the apostrophe a few years back, as if disowning the juice entirely. Now simply "Basil Hayden," it remains one of the most recognizable (and polarizing) names in modern bourbon. Part of the Beam small batch collection alongside Baker’s, Booker’s, and Knob Creek, Basil Hayden was first released in 1992. It’s bottled at 80 proof and, although the mash bill is undisclosed, it’s rumored to contain 62% corn, 27% rye, and 10% malted barley —making it a high-rye bourbon . This time around, Bob and Brad dive back into the bottle with open minds (well, mostly), ready to reassess whether this widely available bourbon is worth the $40 price tag. This review is taken from o
