Bourbon: Real Talk is a podcast where the host Randall Sullivan sits down with a guest over a drink and listens to their story. The purpose of the show is to used whiskey's connective nature to bring people together who might not have otherwise formed a relationship. We are building cultural bridges one drink at a time.
Joe Micallef is
a historian, documentarian, wine/spirits judge, wine producer, and
many other things too numerous to name here. In this episode we get
a behind the scenes look at judging spirits competitions. We
discuss how altitude, light, weather, and environment affects your
palate. We talk about the impact of aging whiskey in a hot climate,
solutions to the Texas whiskey issue, why historically bourbon is
aged in new charred oak barrels and how bourbon has influenced the
flavor of other aged spirits. If you have not already done so
please watch part 1 of this episode.
