from Blind Tasting Podcast · host John Starck
Welcome in, Whiskey Freaks. This episode dives into my unexpected visit to the WhistlePig tasting room in Quechee, Vermont, where I sat down with their Distillers Craft Flight and tried three premium ryes you almost never see on the shelves. I walk you through each pour and give them the full Keep It, Collect It, or Cull It treatment, along with some honest thoughts on flavors, finishes, and those eye-watering WhistlePig price tags.We’ve also got a couple big whiskey stories on deck, including Heaven Hill’s new 90th Anniversary 9-Year release and the latest addition to World Whiskey Society’s Western Collection, the Henry Deringer American Single Malt. And to round things out, I drop a quick movie review of Good Fortune, starring Keanu Reeves, who proves once again he can pretty much do anything on screen.A fun mix of news, pours, and one very serendipitous stop in Vermont.
