We are slightly late this week but we are here! For several months now, one of the co-hosts of The incredible PODCASK podcast has been predicting a "Divisional Shift" coming to bourbon. This week the hosts of the Podcask join me and the Bourbon Junkies return to debate the prediction. The question is simply this. Is Greeze the Bourbon Prophet trying to warn us all of the impending doom in Bourbon? Or do I owe the Bourbon Junkies an Apology for forcing them to sit through this? Time for you to decide. . . Whiskey Neat is a Radio show on iTunes and ESPN 97.5 FM in Houston and is brought to you every week by the following sponsors. SAGAMORE This week’s episode is brought to you by Sagamore Spirit Rye Whiskey. They are reviving the tradition of Maryland-style rye whiskey at their Baltimore farm and waterfront distillery. Each batch of their whiskey is hand-blended for consistency in aroma, flavor, and texture, creating a balanced flavor profile with notes of warm cinnamon, vanilla bean, honey, and spice. Find them online at Sagamore Spirit dot com or visit your local retailer to pick up a bottle. Please drink responsibly. Waterford! If you're familiar with the concept of Terroir in wine, you'll appreciate Mark Reynier's Waterford "Single Malt Whisky" from Ireland.
