  • Bonus Sho(r)t – Old Fitzgerald 7 Year Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon QuickTaste
    Jan 16 2026

    After chasing but never tasting any version of the nearly impossible-to-find Old Fitzgerald decanter series bonded Bourbon, we'd just about given up ever being able to acquire any. But then Heaven Hill decided to create a new, reasonably priced Old Fitz expression that's basically the same juice, just with a lower age statement. So, of course we jumped at the chance to buy it and try it. But will it exceed our expectations? Or will we never want to drink any of their bottles again? Press play to find out!

  • Toki Black Japanese Whisky QuickTaste + Smoky Toki Cocktails!
    Jan 9 2026

    We haven’t featured any Japanese whiskies on the podcast in over three years, so when Suntory came out with a smoky version of their classic fruit-and-spice Toki mainstay, we were intrigued to say the least. And we had lots of questions: How different was this from the original? How would it compare? And what cocktails could we make with it? Well, Suntory obliged with recipes and flavor to spare. But would we (along with Gabe) actually like anything at all? Press play and find out!
