The Wild Geese

Show notes

A bakery, a bucket of paint, and a horse cart. Those three things somehow explain the Irish whiskey in our glasses this week. We got into Green Spot Château Montelena, and the story behind it wanders a lot further than the pour. There's a family shop that's kept one whiskey alive for seven generations, a handshake deal that saved it from disappearing for good, and a crew of Irish exiles who wound up embarrassing France at its own game. We're not going to tell you how a Napa winery loops all the way back to a shop in Dublin. That's the part you'll want to hear for yourself. Grab something good and listen up!
