Whiskey Under 50
Three novices, with very different tastes, try whiskeys (and whiskies, for you Scotch lovers) that can be purchased for less than $50 -- searching for the elusive top shelf whiskeys at a bottom shelf price. These are not whiskey pros but rather a group of friends who just love getting together to banter and taste a new whiskey. The world is full of cheap, mediocre whiskeys, but they also stumble on some gems and guide the listener to what's worth searching out.

Lots going on in this episode! Amy and Jonathan take a birthday vacation to Costa Rica where they bring back two rums from distiller Ron Centenario, a bottle of blended Diplomatico rum, and a bottle of local fire water they called Cacique.
Then to celebrate the birthday Whiskey Under 50 style we pop open a bottle of Revival Rye from High Wire Distilling that is distilled from 100% un-malted Abruzzi rye grown in the Carolinas.
Cheers!
