Every pour tells a story. IRA's Whiskey and Whiskers is a rotating cast of friends that all love a good glass of God's chosen elixirs, each with their own preferred tastes. Join us as we explore the different facets of whiskey and dive into what makes a good pour.
Our episodes feature tastings of selected bottles of whiskeys- from smoky Scotch and bold bourbons to smooth Irish pours, breaking down aroma, flavor, finish, and everything in between.
The guys go unfiltered on this episode as we wrap up the season. Sam, Zach, Chris G, Chris L, and Mike discuss the usual topics, but we leave the edge on- no filters, no cuts, just an hour of good talks with friends.

Blind Bottle Tasting - Bourbon
No real history here- this is strictly a taste test and a guessing game. The guys each bring a bottle for tasting, but only one person knows who brought what.
Join us as we try to figure out what we are drinking, who brought it, and what our thoughts are for each pour. This episode proves that sometimes your eyes deceive your tastes.
Special thanks to Chris Leone for being our bartender during this tasting!

Gather around the bar for Episode 2 of IRA's Whiskey and Whiskers.

Budget Browns
Our inaugural episode is all about "Budget Browns"- whiskeys under $50 that are great starters for those looking to find a place to start, or for those that want to have more options available to them without breaking the bank.
The group samples five different whiskeys and gives their thoughts on each- flavor notes, aroma, and good examples of how to enjoy the whiskey.
Sampled in this episode are Four Walls American/Irish blend, Speyburn 10 year scotch, Russell's Reserve 6 year rye, Michter's Small Batch Sour Mash, and Knob Creek 9 year bourbon.
