** What's with the necklaces?
Rex is a whiskey mooch. His necklace is a manifestation of pure glory - forged from the irradiated bones of eagles and wolves. Also a tube sock.
See the origin story here: goo.gl/JMc2Hr
Daniel is a whiskey sommelier. His necklace is a token of his sommelier level, and he trains whiskey sommeliers at The Whisk(e)y Marketing School in Austin Texas.
**A Whisk(e)y school?
Yup. Here are a few things we believe.
** You don’t have to be a snob to appreciate and love great whiskey.
Whisky and Whiskey (it depends on where it’s from) have been an important part of cultures around the world from time immemorial. Whiskey is a part of the very fabric of Western society, and in most places, is as common and accessible as beer.
Like Jazz and wine, snobs have predictably hijacked whiskey appreciation, spoiling our natural, common connection with it and creating a false dichotomy of “good whiskey” and “bad whiskey.”
It’s time to break through the emotional bias with facts and science. That’s what this school is about.
** The only valid definition of “good” whiskey is “whiskey you like to drink.”
Learning how to share your love of whiskey in a way that connects people to the history and the story has more to do with public speaking and storytelling than it does with facts and tests.
The best way to learn about whiskey and share that love is to drink whiskey and talk about it with friends. Study the history, find the stories, and discover the culture and the methods that have been developed over hundreds of years. That’s what you’ll do when you attend The Whisk(e)y Marketing School.
** You don’t need a marketing degree to learn how to share your love of whiskey with the world.
There's an old saying, "In business, it's not what you know... It's who you know."
Regardless the industry you're in, most people are clumsy and ineffective when it comes to "networking" because they ignore a very important rule - Relationship First, Business Second.
There's a tremendous amount of curiosity about Whisk(e)y today. It's a great excuse for you to gather a group of people who want to have fun and learn something new. The Whisk(e)y School teaches you how to tap into that curiosity, and share your love of whisk(e)y in an unpretentious way. You're demonstrating knowledge, expertise, and an engaging personality - things valued by every gatekeeper, in every industry.
Or would you rather hand out business cards and cross your fingers?

I'm sure you'll fill that class many times over. I think you're all a bit out of my league anyway. I'm just a displaced Texan stuck in Georgia after the military barfed me back out into society.

    Also, thanks. You're actually better than 90% of people starting out. Your lighting is usually really good. Your audio is ok. Your on-camera presence is solid. The multiple camera angles? I'm sure it adds to your production time, which is a pain in the ass - but it helps bring people deeper into your world / process. Your thumbnails are really good. An argument could be made for putting your face in the thumbs (helps people form a bond with you), but if it ain't broke, don't fix it. You're doing good work, Still It. If its sustainable and fun... keep it up!

    Thats a good story but there is another detail which makes it even better, the guy who started the glenlivet was George Smith and he applied for a licence to distill- this meant keeping records and paying taxes. Most other distillers won't do this but they ould sell their product under the glenlivet name so buyers would think it was lawfully produced.

    Hi guys, great show! I hope you will test all whiskey from all over the world! :) I have a strange question. Today I have visited one of the biggest supermarkets in my town and I found some good deals. There was this guy, very friendly, really helpful, that shared with me some interesting piece of information. He said that if you: 1) take a piece of pineapple, 2) season it with black pepper, 3) chew it really well, 4) wait for three minutes, and than drink whisky (now I don't remember if he specified it to be scotch or bourbon) you will taste dark chocolate. I don't think I will try it, because I hate pineapple and black pepper, but does it makes sense to use such tricks to force whiskey to taste in some strange ways?

  • @WhiskeyVault

    @WhiskeyVault

    This one's weird, but I do know that pineapple is one of the only fruits that completely screws up your tastebuds. Pineapple has bromelain which is effective at breaking down proteins, but also completely screws with your tongue's interpretation of flavors for a chunk of time.

    yea today i tasted it the first time i tasted it it burnt like it was mad at me you know but now its smooth and tastes like i put like five pounds of honey n it and its now 85 percent so i'm going to put it in a chard Cheri barrel and hopefully you can taste the hickory and Cheri and it wont be over powered by honey (one other thing why dose it taste biskity is it because i didn't malt the barley?)

    A question that has puzzled me for a bit: A number of scotch whiskies are aged in used bourbon barrels. But bourbon is a relatively newer spirit historically than scotch whisky. So what did Scottish distilleries use before there was a great supply of used bourbon barrels? And that must mean that today's scotch whiskies are different in character from their historical versions from a 100+ years ago, correct?

  • @WhiskeyVault

    @WhiskeyVault

    7 жыл бұрын

    Yes, barrel aging only showed up in scotland a few hundred years after it was first made. Traditionally it was a clear spirit like vodka or moonshine. When they did use barrels, it was mostly wine barrels.

    What are your thoughts on buying whiskey from UK distributors like Masters of Malt and the Whiskey Exchange. They have lots of amazing whiskies I can't get locally, or even in the U. S. for some. I'd like to try it out but haven't bc my state doesn't allow alcohol delivered. Can these UK companies do it bc Total Wine won't deliver whiskey to me.

    I have a question not directly related to this video: What is the best way to figure out the age of an old dusty bottle? Is there a resource that shows what labeling and packaging looked like through the years for iconic liquors? I ask this because my late father didn't drink very often (and when he did, it was almost exclusively Gentleman Jack) but was frequently being given gifts of bottles of whiskey by well-meaning relatives back in the 1980s-90s. Most of those bottles got tucked away in a beautiful liquor cabinet and were never opened. I have taken some pictures of them for reference, and might open a couple out of curiosity next time I visit my mom (she's 600 miles away though), but my curiosity is spinning. related: is there any kind of secondary market value for unopened 30 year old bottles (but not 30 year AGED/barreled, because I know there's a difference, it doesn't age/improve in the glass, etc)?

    So time to get nerdy, Rex you can take a back seat for this one, in my quest to further develop my knowledge of all thing Whisk(e)y I've taken to book learnin'. I have recently completed "Bourbon: The Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of an American Whiskey" and "And a Bottle of Rum: A History of the New World in Ten Cocktails" (the latter being not of Whisk(e)y I know but of the pirates brew that fondles my tiddly bits ever so nicely). So my question laid bare, pardon my colorful words I was just reading The Divine Comedy and can't help but wax poetics about some shit, are there any books that you could recommend on the subject or in a preferable form audible books as I have a long commute to work and am eager to enlighten my travels?
