When she has breakfast with whiskey she's a connoisseur, but when I do it I'm "out of control and in need of help"
My wife says the same!
There's a subtle difference between having whiskey with your breakfast... and having breakfast with your whiskey.
That's pretty funny lol
Postghost lmao
Just write a book about whiskey and your suddenly not an alcoholic. Trust me, works every time.
"We like spankings, or cinnamon, or spicy wings"
You really just opened with spankings
WOULD i hit it? yes.
Do i WANT to hit? Also yes.
She also speaks of being a cheap date, and rolling out of bed and having a rye with her oatmeal. Marriage material right there!
I actually really liked her, didnt come off as fake trying trying too hard. It was funny too.
She just kept going like she didn’t say anything lol. I was like “.....wait, what did she just say!?”
@@Amberscion *scotch
As someone who works in whisky, you meet alot of pretentious people. She is the best example of the good part of the whisky world. Open minded, loves whisky of all costs and never calls any of the drinks "bad". She fantastic!!!
But some ARE bad.
Cool. I totally get what you mean by the pretentious whiskey "connoisseur".
@@hansgrubber1682 that's just your subjective opinion
You work in whisky? Is that good for the skin?
@@peacexoom4936 No, some are legitimately poorly made and taste bad.
Some whiskys are the spirit equivalent of a microwave dinner, it`s food, but it`s not good food..
Plastic bottles, nuff said :p
She is the smartest mess / highest functioning alcoholic I’ve ever seen and I’m so here for it 👏🏻
Wtf is that pfp ain't noone reading that
She did forget to say that only the great state of Kentucky can make bourbon
Why not be both?
@@connorgibala4698 I didn’t say she wasn’t lol
@@charliehugococko26 that is incorrect.
There a fine line between “whiskey expert” and “informed alcoholic”
im an informed alcoholic
The fine line is a single word. That word is “aromatics.”
Actually, you can talk to some ex-alcoholics and they will admit they called themselves wine/whisky/whatever connaisseurs as a justification for their drinking
She's actually a whiskey judge. I just found out. She was on Whiskey Tribe.
@@concert610 Whiskey Tribe! Daniel and Rex are two amazing guys! I just feel the urge to watch the episode where she's with them in the bar.
This lady: detects orange blossom, butterscotch, and vanilla
Me: detects burning
I used to feel that way.
Go to a legit whisky tasting. I didn't really want to go, but went with buds for the night out. Some whisky there was just..."burney"....but a couple others changed my opinion of what whisky could be.....now I actually enjoy whisky neat because I found what I like. The one that changed my opinion that night was Glenmorangie Lasanta. Later I got into Islay scotch...and later on I finally found some American whiskeys that I enjoy.
My favorite regular sipping whisky this month is probably Ardbeg 10 year. Nothing too extravagant. Smokey, warm, good.
As soon as you've burnt your taste buds away with a few gallons of whisky/whiskey, you'll be able to detect orange blossom, butterscotch and vanilla. ;-)
Try a decent single malt scotch that's fairly smoked. I only like whiskys that are at least somewhat smoky because they mask the ethanol taste very well. The more creamy, often irish ones, "dessert whiskys" I cannot stand, the combination of that with the taste of ethanol is nauseating. Whisky is the only spirit that I'll drink neat, because a good one doesn't taste like solvent unlike most other types of spirits.
@@frysebox1 I've never found an Irish whisky I've enjoyed enough to buy a bottle. I'm sure they are out there, but I'm not holding my breath.
Oban 14y and dalwhinnie are the two I really like. I never was interested in whiskey before my dad took me to a distillery in Scotland on holiday. All those guys are right you really need to try a lot before you find one you really enjoy

Big fan of whisky, but really wish they showed the labels. Would be interesting to know.

Slight hints of spousal abuse, notes of childhood trauma, add a layer of regret and you have a really good whiskey. It is lacking the scent of DUI manslaughter charges you get with some of the higher proof ones.

You need to drink more pal
Haha whiskey for breakfast, whiskey for oatmeal, Dang atleast it lessens the guilt we put in our heads everytime we drink every night
@@richarddavies5674 I used to tell friends that, mucking around of course, but now I advise people not to drink.
Then there's drinking your whisky with your oatmeal while being spanked...
Spankings and whisky for breakfast... I like her. 😹

What is for certain, though, is that you should always wipe your blackboard off with a wet rag instead of using any chalkboard eraser. Even the best chalkboard erasers pale in comparison to a lowly dampened paper towel.
I like someone who unabashedly says “I’m a whiskey expert,” then proceeds to convince you they weren’t lying.
I love her personality! She talks like she’s already drunk before starting the show 🥰
Maybe she is
She has a drink with breakfast, she probably is
Maybe they did multiple takes

This lady is awesome
Bathing in whisky is a bad idea. Your lady parts won't thank you. That being said, it's an excellent commendation.
Stephanie Morgan ouch
I didn't even think it that far through lol
This lady is an alcoholic
@@ColeckZz she's obviously joking
Mitchell shes showing signs of intoxication when she was suppose to do a video tasting, you don't get that intoxicated off sipping when you drink a lot. Shes an alcoholic lol.
I can't believe you can smell and taste all those flavors. Whenever I smell and taste whiskey it just smells and tastes like whiskey.
ever heard of terpenes?
Same... for the first 3 months of getting into it as a hobby. Took me that long to find "caramel" in the smell. But damn is it satisfying when you do!
Very possible. You really no need to inhale and then just take a sip. Let yourself breathe afterwards and just wait. You will taste and smell certain flavors. I'm no expert but I can taste differences when I do that.
you generally dont get these notes right away, alcohol is overpowering everything in the beginning you need to aclimate to the high proof, in the beginning dont be afraid to lower the proof yourself adding some water or even ice, but keep in mind that the higher the proof the more complex is the whiksey (generally). Also in the beginning having 2 different whiskeys side by side helps a lot identifying differences thus making you notice the flavors. keep in mind that you cannot identify a flavor youve never been in contact with, like if youve never ate and apple you cant associate anything to the taste of apple. The more things you try the better your baseline for comparing flavors.
@@raph89117 very insightful and I get it--thanks!
18:44 "You could imagine a pear dipped in honey"
Totally.
I wish they would give the names of each whisky after the reveal. It's hard to go to the store and say, "I'd like two bottles of whisky A"
Gus Stone LMAO!
Like she said, don't be afraid to sit down at a bar and try two to see what you like.
Scotch has 5 major styles based on their region. If someone offered to buy me a bottle from a region I liked at a lower price point or a mid-range bottle from a region I don't particularly like, I would take the cheaper bottle.
But you can look for prices comparable to what was shown 🙃
For the japanese whiskeys, the guesses wouldnt be hard. I would guess Suntory's Toki for A and B would probably Yamazaki 12. for the rest of the categories that are so much more abundant here. No clue. I also wish she would say. She semi addresses this, but I also wish they would dive more into ones where high price isnt better. She explains it well in Rye, as I am a Rye lover. The older and it gets makes it more expensive, but the older it gets in those barrels the less 'Rye' you taste. Gotta find that good mid grade.
@@Lextauph that was my guess too, toki for A and yamazaki for B, the aftertaste really gave it away
"We like spankings, or cinnamon, or spicy wings"
Ma'am this is a Wendy's
Now I _really_ want to know how whiskey pairs with fries and a Frosty. It's 8:15 on a Monday and I can't decide if that would really make it any worse.

I like segments like these - it’s not always immediately visually apparent as to which one is higher quality (as with the bread or meat videos). It really makes the expert more impressive because it shows that they know what they’re talking about.
I live in Scotland. Glasgow. This stuff is our heritage. There is nothing better when the pubs were opened to walk in and see the huge selection of whisky for sale here. Love seeing older men sitting down and having a dram together.
Whisky is more than just alcohol here it is an institution.
This wonderful lady must have some Scottish blood..Awesome. Slang .
it's a lot of people's heritage.
"you roll out of bed and are like- I need a drink with my oatmeal- this is the jam." I'm in love.
wtf... spankings and whiskey in my oatmeal... ok. This chick cray. (in a good way)
Not to mention also that she would bathe in it!
I played it back to make sure I heard her right lol
Her: "I'm getting smells of flowers and spring time and orange blossom and vanilla"
Me: "Smells like rubbing alcohol"
Turtle's Reef yep..all smells and tastes the same to me.
Way late but here's a handy tip: Open your mouth a bit and inhale with both your nose and your mouth at the same time. The reason for this is that if you inhale through your nose with your mouth closed, then you're sucking alcohol vapours into your sinus cavity and then giving them nowhere to go so all you smell is burn. With your mouth open, you create a passthrough airflow out of your sinus cavity and pull the alcohol through, leaving room for the spirit's aromatic notes to get noticed.
You also can vary the distance you bring your nose to the glass, because the further you are the more the alcohol evaporates into the air above the glass instead of going up your nose and masking the flavours. The shape of the glass you're smelling from also has DRAMATIC impacts on the smell of the whisk(e)y, with a narrower opening making the smell more focused and intensed (including the alcohol) so maybe try different containers to find one you like.
It takes a bit of practice but everyone's got a sweet spot where they're not just huffing moonshine fumes. I still haven't gotten past tasting 85% wet fire, though.
Not everyone has a good nose, it's not just snobby. You can practice at it though and the more exposure, the more you can detect. Try blindfolded at home. And like above comments, breathe it in, most of it is in the way the aroma passes over the tongue and back towards the mouth from the nose.
Try a few different ones, especially back to back, you will start to get the hang of it pretty quickly.
Smells like nail polish remover.
I’ve seen a few of these “expert guesses cheap vs expensive” videos and the experts get it right every time. Impressive. Makes me feel like I’m missing out on so much every time I eat and drink 😆🤔.
I've seen it once or twice got it wrong. I think it might have been a coffee episode 🤷 if I think of it I'll come back and edit it. or something to do with spice paprika

I've never actually tried a whiskey myself but the way this woman expresses herself like she is talking about art makes this drink so much more interesting to me.
They definitely don't taste like how she describes when you drink them for the first time! You've got to get used to the alcohol before being able to taste the differences
I had had distilled drinks before, vodka, spirits etc. But first time i tried whiskey, that was like, holy crap, never knew it could actually taste good and not like hand sanitizer
@@chelseafcrocks82Depends. I didn’t need to grow a taste for it, but of course there are many from whom it is an acquired taste.

@@BradGryphonn "extreme moderation"
stephen stewart the different flavors or notes come from those ingredients and also the barrel that they’re aged in. Wood has a lot of compounds and and natural occurring chemicals that leech out into the whisky. Woods are different between each other too. The longer it ages the more notes one has the potential of tasting. Also the combination of certain ones give different notes. I’m no super taster and definitely can’t tell much different between certain ones but some stronger flavors I can taste and do notice

@@beckersteen4 when the girl says she needs whiskey with her oatmeal thats a sign that something is wrong there. Change the whiskey to any other drug and people would get 10x more judgemental. This acceptance of alcohool is clear when you compare the number of addicted to alcohool compared to other drugs. Obviously Im not sure wether the girl is addicted or not, and certainly is not on me to try to change what she does. But saying "I love you" becuse of a clearly bad habit is a good way to escalate a potential problem. Well the number speaks for themselves.

Damn! That's an awful thing to say to a lady that enjoys spankings and whiskey for breakfast.
They should have done moonshine.
"After tasting Moonshine B I can feel I'm starting to go blind, so I'm going to say that Moonshine B is the cheaper one."
GaiusMatius “And i’m going to go ahead and guess Moonshine B was made in someone’s backyard tarp tent”
That is just the classic moonshine.
Maybe they could do “Glug”- with brake fluid.
If blindness is the only symptom, I'd immediately predict that the other must be cheaper.
"The newspaper they dissolved in B is definitely from a single PRESS agency."

I wish the list of whiskeys were listed in the description or comments...
I was just about to comment this, but I'm glad I only had to press like on yours. As a whisky enthusiast this would have improved the video greatly.
The expensive Irish one is called Midleton, you get a Willy Wonka factory tour ticket with each purchase and the cheap one is probably Paddy's which will probably get you a black eye.
@@adammoore251 there are other expensive Irish whiskeys than just Middleton
Honestly I wish they did this for all their videos.
At least for the beer tasting video there were a lot of people in the comments who could help identify the beers based on the bottle/can, price per beer, and the descriptions given by the expert (for example, the wheat beers he tasted were Allagash White and Blue Moon). This video put them all in decanters instead of just removing the labels from the bottles so you couldn't even make guesses based on that kind of information.
They could probably make a good amount of extra money too if they partnered with a distributor and provided affiliate links in the description. It would be great to be able to receive an expert review like this on the product, comparing the cheap to the expensive side by side, and then make an informed purchase with that information.
It even sounded like she preferred the cheaper rye whiskey for something to just drink when you wanted a rye (listen to the description she gave at 8:57), but right as she was about to say it they did the jump cut at 9:18 where they revealed the prices. I'd really like to know what that cheaper rye whiskey was since it sounds like she thought it was a great value from all the descriptions she gave to it.
@@thomasbuck303 Yea, at $100 it's probably something like redbreast 12 (€60 over here) or yellow spot (about €70). I say that for no other reason than they are my favourites 😂

With a slight aroma of whiskey and a hint taste of whiskey.
Why you got the female reproductive system as your pfp
@@meeblings6 First, you could type out reproductive but you couldnt be bothered to type profile picture? Second, it's the symbol for the DJ Defalt from the watchdog series.
Watching this video, I feel like I'm looking through binoculars while letting my 5 year old nephew play with the controls. Zoom in. Zoom out. Zoom in. Zoom out. Zoom in. Zoom out.
best description of the editing.
You ruined the video for me. Now that’s all I see lol
I really enjoyed this video with her, you can tell she would be good company - a true conniseur
Amazing expert analysis and explanations. Never called any whiskey bad but open minded and loves any whiskey regardless of the cost.
The editor uses the zoom button like William Shatner uses a comma.
Didn't notice until I read your comment, I can't unsee it and it's so annoying!
That's for jump cut, each zoom action is a jump cut point.
Wow. This comment completely ruined the rest of the video for me... I'm not even going to finish
@@Derbycityborn you are welcome.
I shouldn't have read this
I think she's been my favorite expert so far. Her dry humor is fantastic.
Catie Sampedro you mean Rye humor correct?
@@jarhead21100 Oh that's terrible. And I love it.
Wow, I think I will have to buy a bottle or two of Milam and Greene whiskey after seeing Heather Greene's enthusiasm and joy for Whiskey.
I like the detail of the review she was giving, it is as lively as the whiskey does, and she point it out in whiskey way of it.
I looked back on all the previous episodes of this series and *yes* they do the zoom in and zoom out on all of them
thank you. now i can't unsee this
In this video it's even more painful, because I've never noticed it before
It's a TV technique where they film with multiple cameras and splice together 4 second clips to keep the attention of the ADHD community.
@@monstar7566 But it's still painful to watch.
This lady is fun as hell. Totally comfortable on camera and great sense of humor. Thanks Rene Russo.
@Clams McGee Bill Cosby? LOL!!!
I would love to watch a series where epicurious gives feedback on what the experts say about the options, as well as reveal what the names are.
What an absolute charmer. Great video!
Finally, we got our vid on whiskey!!
And the expert is awesome too, she's funny, clever, and not stuck up. I like that she doesn't mind a cheaper whiskey, and really just cares about the taste, and she's super down-to-earth.
My favorite episode yet!
She also doesn't do the funny tasting thing with her mouth "you don't drink it that way . . . and also I think it looks strange".
She also doesn't know what she is talking about
uisce_beatha if you say so
and she likes spankings

This is how its supposed to be done.
She is telling you about the whiskey, giving great info, without deviating and its beautiful.
Thank you so much.

Great video! Thank you!
