The Whiskey Ring Podcast

I am a whiskey enthusiast, taster, and reviewer (other spirits allowed, too!) and live my spirits life my two rules: Drink what you like Drink it how you like it

I've been tasting whiskey and spirits for 7+ years with over 1600 written tastings (500 published so far). I enjoy spirits of all kinds, excepting vodka and agave spirits (trust me, it's my taste buds and not your product).

I'm a part-time contributor to Malt-Review, Bourbon & Banter, and ABV Network, LLC, and a member of multiple high-profile nationwide whiskey groups.

The Whiskey Ring Podcast is a weekly show highlighting the people who make whiskey and spirits interesting.

My guests and I taste through product lineups and talk about the ins and outs of whiskey making around the world, including Japan, Scotland, the US, and more.

Guests include spirits writers, distilleries, distributors and importers, non-distilling producers, industry legends, and app developers.

Episodes are published weekly on Wednesday mornings at 6am New York time. Scheduling can be arranged around product releases or newsworthy events if desired. Guest requests for no-go topics are always respected and post-editing is available.

Whiskey in my Wedding Ring is my review and tasting website where I post full reviews, tasting notes, and information about whiskies and spirits I've tried.

Samples, bottles, and pre-release tastings are all accepted, but editorial control - including language, rating, notes, and tone - remain with me. If a product is provided, the producer will have a chance to review the posting for factual inaccuracies.
