The Noble Dram | Surprise - That's Not Gavin (Season 2 | Ep. 5)

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 16:00:00 -0500

Gavin’s out this week… but its no surprise that The Noble Dram is still pouring strong.

Aaron is joined by a surprise guest at the table—his dad—for a conversation about the whiskies that caught them completely off guard. The bottles that surprised them, impressed them, and made them rethink what they expected from a pour.

Aaron brings something a little off the beaten path with M&H Single Malt, a whisky from Israel that’s been quietly turning heads in the global whisky scene. Meanwhile, Dad leans into bold peat with Ardbeg Wee Beastie, the young Islay powerhouse that proves age isn’t everything.

From unexpected flavor profiles to the stories behind these drams, the two explore what makes a whisky truly surprising—and why sometimes the bottles you least expect are the ones worth remembering.

So pour yourself a dram and join us for a special guest appearance on The Noble Dram.

The Noble Dram | Souvenir Bottles: Thoughtful or Throwaway (Season 2 | Ep. 4)

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 16:00:00 -0500

Your friends went on an epic trip… toured incredible distilleries… experienced world-class whiskey…

…and this is what they brought you back?

In this episode of The Noble Dram, we’re diving into “Survivor Bottles”—the whiskies that made it out of the gift shop, survived the suitcase, and landed on our bar. But the real question is…

👉 Did they survive for a reason… or just barely make the cut?

We’re cracking open gifted bottles from friends & loved ones who traveled the world and put their whiskey judgment to the test:
Was it a thoughtful, curated pick?
A last-minute panic buy?
Or just the only bottle that fit in a carry-on?

From blind reactions to the stories behind each pour, we break down whether these bottles are:
🥃 Worth the trip
✈️ Worth the suitcase space
😬 Or barely worth the the bottle they come in

And along the way, we debate what actually makes a distillery worth visiting—and whether mountains or beaches create better whiskey experiences.

👇 Drop a comment:
What’s the best (or worst) bottle someone’s brought you back?

Travel the Noble Way.

Aaron’s Pour: Old Pali Road - Private Reserve Straight Bourbon - 93 Proof
Gavin’s Pour: Nelson’s Green Briar - Tennessee Whiskey - Marathon Malt - 103.4 Proof

The Noble Dram | Death & Taxes (Season 2 | Ep. 3)

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 16:00:00 -0500

In this episode of The Noble Dram, we dive deep into the true cost of your favorite pour—and it’s not just what’s in the glass. From the rebellion that helped define America to the modern-day system that controls how whiskey gets to your shelf, we’re unpacking the history, politics, and price behind every bottle.

From revolution to regulation, whiskey has always been caught in the middle of America’s favorite debate—freedom vs. control.
Because in the end…
Nothing is certain except death and taxes—and thankfully, whiskey helps with both.

Vive le Dram! 🥃

This week, we trade the shamrocks for seaside cliffs and Cognac country—we’re head to the Land of Love, France, where whisky is rewriting the rules. On this episode of Whiskies of the World, Aaron and Gavin dive into the rise of French whisky and why it’s no longer just “the country of wine and brandy.”

From the Celtic soul of Brittany to innovative cask experimentation, French distillers are blending tradition with bold creativity. The boys break down how France's wine and Cognac past is creating a whisky future. But how does that future compete with all that history.

Because history—and a little revolution—is always better with a dram in hand.

The Noble Dram | Ep. 19: Pigskins & Pours - Super Bowl Special

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 16:00:00 -0600

It’s Super Bowl Week, but the real heavyweight matchup is in the glass. 🏈🥃 On this special episode of The Noble Dram, we’re going coast-to-coast for an all-American whiskey showdown, featuring Seattle’s Westland Distillery and New England’s WhistlePig. From the Pacific Northwest’s trailblazing American Single Malt to Vermont’s bold, rye-forward philosophy, Aaron and Gavin dig into how two very different regions are redefining what American whiskey can be.

We break down Westland’s malt-driven, terroir-obsessed approach—highlighting their peated American Single Malt—and contrast it with WhistlePig’s no-compromise rye program that helped put American rye back on the map. Expect plenty of nerdy whiskey talk, regional history, production deep dives, and, of course, some friendly trash talk worthy of Super Bowl Sunday.

So whether you’re here for the whiskey, the banter, or just an excuse to pour something special, grab a dram, pick your coast, and let the whiskey kickoff begin. 🥃🔥

Aaron’s Pour: WhistlePig 12 - Old World Rye - 86 Proof

Pack your bags (and your Glencairn), because the Whiskies of the World adventure continues—this time landing in the land of precision, patience, and perfection: Japan.

On this episode of The Noble Dram, Aaron and Gavin dive deep into Japanese whisky, exploring how a nation inspired by Scotch took the craft and refined it into something unmistakably its own. From pristine water sources and meticulous blending to the pursuit of balance, harmony, and subtlety, Japanese whisky has earned its place among the world’s finest.

The boys unpack the history, philosophy, and flavor profiles that define Japan’s whisky scene—why it’s so elegant, why it can be so hard to find, and why every sip feels intentional. Expect thoughtful pours, nerdy details, and plenty of side quests along the way.

So pour yourself a perfectly measured dram or a Gavin Pour, sit back, and join us as we continue our global adventures!

The Noble Dram | Ep. 17: Whiskies of the World (Part 1 - USA)

Thu, 22 Jan 2026 16:00:00 -0600

We’re going on an Adventure, a Whiskey Adventure that is!

On this episode of the Noble Dram, Aaron and Gavin start their ‘Whiskeys of the World’ series where they embark on the adventure of a lifetime! And what better way to start this adventure than right here in our own backyard and to spice it up we’re sippin’ American Single Malts.

The landscape of American whiskey is changing, and it’s no longer just about bourbon and rye. As federal regulations finally codify what it means to be a "single malt" in the US, the boys dive into the unique regional characters and innovative mash bills that set these bottles apart from their Scottish and Japanese cousins.
We also pay homage to the great Scottish Holiday, Burn’s Night!
So pour yourself a wee dram, grab a plate of haggis, and enjoy the Noble Dram!

Aaron’s Pour: Courage & Conviction - Cuvée Cask - 92 Proof

The Noble Dram | Ep. 16: Duds vs. Studs

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 16:00:00 -0600

Duds vs. Studs: Round 1
In this episode of The Noble Dram, we put our palates—and our opinions—on the line in Duds vs. Studs: Round 1. From hyped bottles that fall flat to unexpected pours that punch well above their weight, we’re calling it like we taste it.

We break down what makes a whiskey a stud worth savoring and which ones end up as duds better left on the shelf. No marketing fluff, no brand bias—just honest tasting notes, real-world value, and spirited debate over what truly earns a spot on your shelf.

Whether you’re hunting your next great bottle or avoiding a costly mistake, pour a dram and join us as we separate the legends from the letdowns.

🥃 Studs or duds - where do your favorites land?

Let’s get to blind tasting!
