In this episode the Gents manage to get the audio back under control and don’t sound as much like they are recording in a tunnel. Among other things we also review Hudson Baby Bourbon, discuss Wild Turkey’s new offering, and keep up our terrible track …

As the Gents have been busy with the World Cup for the past month we haven’t been able to record our regular scheduled podcast. Never ones to disappoint their loyal listeners we have instead a rare ‘treat’ for you.
Long long ago, before the Bourbon Gents even existed, and before we had a website, we used to record podcasts to pass the time while we worked abroad. We never published these anywhere and only our work colleagues ever heard them… until now.
For one time only, sit back and listen to Mav and Mr Pie back in good old 2012, when we knew practically nothing about bourbon and had no idea what we were doing.
Hope you laugh at this as much as we did!
Enjoy.
NOTE: – We have since revealed that this was an April Fools joke! Well done to all who spotted it and ‘haha’ to all of those who believed it 😉
