Ep. 91: A Legendary Pairing with Pursuit United Malloy’s Single Barrel and Herradura Legend Anejo

For today’s show, The Boys pair a couple of oak-forward beauties and the flavors match up really well. Matt brings the newest Single Barrel bourbon from Malloy’s Finest, from Pursuit United, and Drew brings a special Legend Anejo from Herradura. The stories are great but the QuickSips™ are even better. So grab a whiskey and a tequila, invite your friends, listen and sip along, and Make It A Happy Friday!™

Ep. 90: It’s a St. Patrick’s Tasting And It’s Classy featuring Jameson, Jameson Crested, and Jameson Single Pot Five Oak Cask Release

For this special St. Patty’s Day episode, The Boys line up 3 Irish whiskies - all from Jameson. 
Matt brings the standard Jameson: a whole 50ml airplane bottle.  Drew shares some European finds: Jameson Crested, and what he was told was a DUB airport exclusive, the Jameson Single Pot Five Oak Cask Release.
Grab some Irish whisky, invite your friends, listen and sip along while The Boys enjoy some Jameson and tangent on Biathlons, Pulp Fiction, The Big Short, Smoky And The Bandit, Yuengling Beer and footsie. Thank you to Irish Tenor, Paddy Homan, for our opening.  And as always, thank you Joby of Fourche Creek Podcast for the jingles and songs!
May the luck of the Irish enfold you, May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you, and may you Make It A Happy Friday!™
Slainte!

Ep. 89: Drew’s Blanco Blind-Up with Blancos from Aguasol, Don Fulano, El Tequileño, Lagrimas Del Valle 2022 and Villa Lobos

For today’s episode, The Boys are sipping on 3 blanco tequila’s poured blind out of a possible 5 bottles, plus an extra 4th glass at the end.
After tasting and rating and guessing, the reveal is surprising and rewarding as always.
For the fourth glass, Drew challenges Matt’s palate with an interesting spirit that Drew poured without Matt’s knowledge.
You’ll have to listen to the end to see how it goes, when they eat up all your crackers and your licorice.
So gather your friends, pour some tequila, maybe make it blind, listen and sip along and Make It A Happy Friday!™

Ep. 88: Delicate Complexities with Catoctin Creek Roundstone Rye Whiskey and Mijenta Tequila Blanco Maestra Selection No.2

For this show The Boys pair a rye you might not know (but should) and a limited edition tequila you might not find (but should). 
The Catoctin Creek Roundstone Rye is a 100% rye mash bill and the Mijenta Blanco blends agave from all five states of the official regions of production. There’s a long tangent about limited editions, allocations, the Bourbon arc vs the Tequila arc, Fear Of Missing Out, advertisers, haters, influencers, taters, piñas, industry/market predictions and no real solutions to any of it - if you dare! The only fact we can all agree on is this:  your tasting notes are valid because they are yours.
Both spirits are loaded with complex and delicate flavors, but you’ll have to hang on to the end to see how the QuickSips™ turn out. Grab some whiskey and some tequila, invite a friend, listen and sip along, and Make It A Happy Friday!™

Ep. 87: Wheaton Whisky Club Takeover with Jeff Huber

Ep. 86: All Up In Your Ears featuring 10th Mountain American Single Malt Special 10 Year Anniversary Release and Cambio Tequila Cellar Series #4 - El Corazon Blanco

Happy New Year and Welcome to another year of pairing some great spirits together!
For this show, the Boys sip on bottles that both came from Drew’s shelf: The 10th Anniversary American Single Malt from 10th Mountain, which was bought at the gift shop during a trip to Vail, CO, and the Cambio Tequila Blanco Cellar Series - #4 El Corazon, which was purchased at Sabor y Cultura in Chicago. 
Come along as the Boys rant on Dry January, Drew recommendations more Christmas movies, Joby Holland of Fourche Creek lends his musical talents, there are some fantastic QuickSips™ and so much more!
You might not be able to find these exact bottles, but you can definitely get the regular American Single Malt from 10th Mtn and the regular Blanco from Cambio (which the boys cannot recommend enough).  So scoop 'em up, invite your friends, listen and sip along, and as always: Make It A Happy Friday!™

Ep. 85: The Smoke of Christmas Presents featuring Torabhaig Sound of Sleat Batch Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky and Prolijo Tepeztate Joven Mezcal Artesanal

The Boys with you all a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Ep. 84: Celebrating In The Snow - Eagle Rare Single Barrel and El Tequileño 50th Anniversary Añejo

Pull up a seat and join the Boys as they pair up a couple of bottles that are worth celebrating. Did you know that the Eagle Rare name is fifty years old this year? Well, the Uncertified Whiskey Hunter knows and he’s excited to talk about it. Drew found a real ‘dusty’ on the shelf and it celebrates the 50 years of the El Tequileño distillery. 
It’s no coincidence that it’s getting close to Christmas, and these spirits are loaded with some sweet and spice and everything nice to warm your bellies and put a glow on your cheeks.
You might have a hard time finding these bottles, but that shouldn’t stop you from grabbing a whiskey and a tequila and sitting down and hanging with the Boys for a spell.
Hopefully this episode puts you in the Holiday Spirit and helps you Make It A Happy Friday!™
 

Ep. 83: Black Friday Beauties: Bardstown Bourbon Single Barrel and Maracame Tequila Plata

For this Black Friday Episode, the boys sip on Maracame Tequila Plata and a Bardstown Bourbon Single Barrel from the Sycamore Whiskey Club. One bottle had been on Drew’s shelf for 4 years, and the other bottle had been on Matt’s shelf for 4 days.
As usual, the conversation wanders between relevant and random things like the new Agave Matchmaker app to RoboCop and beyond.
The boys are busy spending the Thanksgiving break with their friends and families, and they hope you are as well. Black Friday sales abound, so grab a whiskey, a tequila, gather with friends and family, listen and sip along, and Make It A Happy Friday!™
