  • Judging Bourbon by the Bottle
    Jan 21 2026
    This week on Whiskey@Work, Rob and Mark crack open a bottle that looks like it belongs next to a designer lamp instead of a dusty rickhouse. Frank August Case Study No. 6 is all about first impressions, from a minimalist bottle to a surprisingly bold pour. Along the way, the guys wrestle with sourced bourbon, high proof heat, price tags that raise eyebrows, and the bigger question lurking behind the glass… does bourbon need to look a certain way to be taken seriously? It’s a laid-back conversation about design, taste, hype, and whether a beautiful bottle can carry its weight in a cooling bourbon boom.

  • Rectifiers, Rebels, and Real Whiskey
    Jan 14 2026

    E.H. Taylor wasn’t friendly, flexible, or easy to work with. He was stubborn, loud, and obsessed with one thing… killing fake whiskey.


    In this episode of Whiskey@Work, we dig into the man behind the bottle, the rise of rectified whiskey, why the Bottled-in-Bond Act even exists, and how one relentless pain in the ass helped shape modern whiskey. Along the way, we taste E.H. Taylor Small Batch Bottled-In-Bond, argue about proof, rant about marketing, and realize that sometimes the people who won’t shut up are the ones who actually change things.


    History, honesty, and a whiskey that doesn’t hold back.

  • The Vow of the Peacock
    Jan 7 2026

    New year, bad decisions.


    Rob and Mark kick off 2026 by talking about why New Year’s resolutions usually fall apart, how ancient civilizations handled fresh starts, and why sometimes leaning into the wrong idea feels oddly right. Along the way, they crack open Darts from Lasso Motel Whiskey, a bold, slightly rebellious bourbon finished in Armagnac, sherry, and cognac casks.


    The conversation wanders through medieval knights swearing vows over roasted peacocks, the strange origins of smoking, Hollywood’s role in turning cigarettes into symbols, and why whiskey doesn’t always need to behave itself to be good.
