St. Patty's day is a holiday very associated with alcohol, which can be difficult for those who choose to live a sober lifestyle. Inspired by Blair's recent week-long break from drinking, the whiskey women sample some alcohol-free spirits in solidarity.

It's a lot of new records here at Whiskey Women Podcast: our interview with Talnua Distillery features three whiskey women, five whiskies sampled, and one amazing cheers! Join us for a conversation with Meagan Miller, Amy Kingman, and Maya Oren to learn all about the company bringing Ireland's potstill traditions to Colorado and the ingenuity that has their bottles flying off the shelves. 

You can certainly expect a sweet time when you sit down with the owner of Three Lumps of Sugar, but did you know you'll also be sitting down with a salt expert? (Or that there was such a thing as a salt expert??) Join the whiskey women in conversation with LaShan Arceneaux as they discuss the perils of making a cocktail while traveling, how that problem led to the wonderful solution of LaShan's signature infusions, and how inclusiveness and ingenuity go hand in hand. 

It's February 2, 2022 and you know that that means...or maybe you don't because it's not a real holiday, but the Whiskey Women find puns TOO good TO resist and so must try TWO 2-named whiskies: Two Stars Bourbon, and Two Tigers Indian Whisky. 

Happy New Year! Janet and Blair bring in 2022 with the episode they had planned to do before COVID shut down their holiday plans: sipping Seven Jars' Ava Gardner Select and watching her film The Killers. 

If you haven't heard of Big Nose Kate, prepare for a wild ride and a new favorite whiskey! Janet and Blair chat with Mel Heim about the legend, the woman, the whiskey that is Big Nose Kate. 

Sure, Thanksgiving is this week...but, having already done a number of Thanksgiving episodes, the Whiskey Women decide to skip past Thursday and straight to Black Friday. Thankfully, whiskey companies try to make your shopping season easy by compiling gift sets, but not all are created equal. Join Janet and Blair as they review some of the best (and worst) whiskey gift set options before you venture to the store.

In honor of Halloween, the whiskey women are drawing on their tarot knowledge for insight into some scary-good whiskey. So what will they draw for each dram? What card will they pull for each pour? What is the spirit of these spirits? Listen in, if you dare...

We're still waiting for the season of Netflix's Nailed it! where contestants have to make whiskey bottle or barrel shaped cakes, but in the meantime to celebrate the new season, the Whiskey Women made whiskey cake and invented a drinking game for their favorite baking show! Now you can have your cake and drink it, too!

The Whiskey Women combine a few of their passions -- books, environmentalism, and whiskey -- when they sit down with Shanna Farrell, author of the new book A Good Drink: In Pursuit of Sustainable Spirits. In this eye-opening discussion, Shanna gives Janet and Blair the scoop on which distilleries are prioritizing green practices, how the bar industry can create less waste, and how consumers can demand more transparency when it comes to what ends up in their glasses.
