I specialize in tasting whiskey, but there is another spirit with a very similar tasting culture that folks like to talk about this time of year (just before the 5 of May) - tequila of course! In this episode, Doug Price of the Agave Social Club walks us through a tasting of mezcal and tequila, and we talk a bit about how similar the culture is to whiskey - it is all about the art, the good spirits, and the great people. If you aren't sure what type of tequila or mezcal you might want for this Cinco de Mayo, or if you love whiskey like I do and want to try something a little different, then this episode is for you!

Have you heard the terms Bourbon and Scotch, and wondered what made them different from just saying "whiskey"? Maybe you know when each term is appropriate, but you don't know the relevant rules that makes each unique. In this episode, I break down the laws that make Bourbon whiskey, Scotch Whisky, and Irish Whiskey the awesome beverages that we all love, and do a full review of Smooth Ambler's Contradiction Bourbon.
