IRA's Whiskey and Whiskers

The Luck of the Grain

Join the crew as we Irish it up! We discuss some Irish whiskey terms and sample some Drumshanbo Single Pot Triple-distilled in celebration of St. Paddy's!

Whiskey Terms and Canadian Pours

Gather around the bar for Episode 2 of IRA's Whiskey and Whiskers. The boys discuss different terms that get used for different blends: what they mean, the differences between them, and how to understand the different labelings. A Crown Royal Reserve 12 year is the bottle of the month as we discuss how we feel about the offering from our neighbors up north.

Budget Browns

Our inaugural episode is all about "Budget Browns"- whiskeys under $50 that are great starters for those looking to find a place to start, or for those that want to have more options available to them without breaking the bank. The group samples five different whiskeys and gives their thoughts on each- flavor notes, aroma, and good examples of how to enjoy the whiskey. Sampled in this episode are Four Walls American/Irish blend, Speyburn 10 year scotch, Russell's Reserve 6 year rye, Michter's Small Batch Sour Mash, and Knob Creek 9 year bourbon.
