About this listen
In this episode, Jason and Bradford light up a rare Partagas 160 cigar and go head-to-head in a blind bourbon tasting featuring two very different expressions: Four Roses Super Premium (a Japanese market-only release) and the George Dickel 17-Year.
They explore the history behind these legendary distilleries—Four Roses with its long, winding ownership story and subtle Japanese influence under Kirin, and George Dickel, revitalized by chemical engineer-turned-master distiller Nicole Austin under Diageo’s stewardship.
But the pour isn’t the only thing to savor. The guys dive deep into the evolving journey of a man’s purpose. They reflect on the freedom this generation has to ask what they want to do with their life—not just inherit a path. What happens when the chase slows down in your 40s or 50s? Is it possible to pursue passion without compromising your role?
With cigars in hand and good whiskey in their glasses, the conversation turns honest, layered, and full of the kind of clarity that comes with age—and maybe a little help from Tennessee corn.
