Of beef jars and iodine. Johnnie Walker Black

Cheese regret. Johnnie Walker Blue.

Welcome to yet another special bonus episode of "The Willing Spirits" in our increasingly delayed quest to...uh...what were we trying to do again? Bobby, Jamie, and Kevin seriously had good intentions on starting with an Islay spirit, but we had ribs cooking, and some street corn going, and a questionable charcuterie tray that smelled awfully of offal. We celebrated our fragrant find with our good friend Landon. Having procured a bottle of the goodest, most tastiest and expensiviest version of Johnnie Walker, we decided that there is really no better way to enjoy it than with good friends. Failing that, we drank it anyway and pondered our life choices that led us here. More foolishness followed, but we wisely opted to not record that. Special consideration to Jamie's baked beans, which were on target one hundred. Recorded March 7th, 2020.

The closed-mouth technique. Compass Box "Spice Tree"

Welcome to a special bonus episode of "The Willing Spirits" Recorded shortly after brunch at City Pharmacy on the Square in downtown Covington, Georgia Bobby, Jamie, and Kevin continue their discovery of Islay scotch... by getting distracted with yet another non-Islay Scotch.  Have you ever brought your own glasses into a bar or restaurant? We did, and we looked like idiots. Dried beef makes its return as we enjoy a charcuterie tray . We sample Spice Tree by Compass Box, a blended malt. I finally figured out the difference between "blended scotch" and "blended malt", but was distracted by the pickled okra and bleu cheese. We had a couple of ounces of Johnnie Walker Black Label beforehand, you know, for science. Recorded February 23rd, 2020.

Of beef jars and iodine. Johnnie Walker Black

Welcome to episode zero of "The Willing Spirits" Bobby, Jamie, and Kevin begin their discovery of Islay scotch... without any Islay scotch. We gear up with a dried beef jar and glencairn glasses and a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label as we reflect on pluming ethanol, stores in the mall, and the pleasures of mouth endorphins. Johnnie's black belted whisky will be our control to compare the 8 distilleries against. Recorded February 8th, 2020.
