Who Has the Better Palate – Women or Men Archives

S03E06 WftA – Blind Tasting with Greg Walters

In this episode, Whiskey for the Ages editors Elora, Hannah and Brian welcome friend of the show, Greg Walters. Greg is the author of Whiskey Tap, as well as many other weekly newsletters and podcasting ventures.

During the nearly three and a half hour show, Greg’s nose and palate are greeted and put to the test with whiskies from six different genres:

Rye
Scotch
American Single Malt
Common Bourbon
High Proof Wheated Bourbon
Finished Bourbon

Along the way a wide variety of topics are discussed, both non- and whiskey related. And as always, the WftA panel gives their opinions on several news stories and suggests some whiskies to scavenge for as well. This is a GREAT road-trip episode … Listen in as the craziness ensues by tapping on an icon below.
