** What’s with the necklaces?
Rex is a whiskey mooch. His necklace is a manifestation of pure glory – forged from the irradiated bones of eagles and wolves. Also a tube sock.
See the origin story here: http://goo.gl/JMc2Hr
Daniel is a whiskey sommelier. His necklace is a token of his sommelier level, and he trains whiskey sommeliers at The Whisk(e)y Marketing School in Austin Texas.
**A Whisk(e)y school?
Yup. Here are a few things we believe.
** You don’t have to be a snob to appreciate and love great whiskey.
Whisky and Whiskey (it depends on where it’s from) have been an important part of cultures around the world from time immemorial. Whiskey is a part of the very fabric of Western society, and in most places, is as common and accessible as beer.
Like Jazz and wine, snobs have predictably hijacked whiskey appreciation, spoiling our natural, common connection with it and creating a false dichotomy of “good whiskey” and “bad whiskey.”
It’s time to break through the emotional bias with facts and science. That’s what this school is about.
** The only valid definition of “good” whiskey is “whiskey you like to drink.”
Learning how to share your love of whiskey in a way that connects people to the history and the story has more to do with public speaking and storytelling than it does with facts and tests.
The best way to learn about whiskey and share that love is to drink whiskey and talk about it with friends. Study the history, find the stories, and discover the culture and the methods that have been developed over hundreds of years. That’s what you’ll do when you attend The Whisk(e)y Marketing School.
** You don’t need a marketing degree to learn how to share your love of whiskey with the world.
There’s an old saying, “In business, it’s not what you know… It’s who you know.”
Regardless the industry you’re in, most people are clumsy and ineffective when it comes to “networking” because they ignore a very important rule – Relationship First, Business Second.
There’s a tremendous amount of curiosity about Whisk(e)y today. It’s a great excuse for you to gather a group of people who want to have fun and learn something new. The Whisk(e)y School teaches you how to tap into that curiosity, and share your love of whisk(e)y in an unpretentious way. You’re demonstrating knowledge, expertise, and an engaging personality – things valued by every gatekeeper, in every industry.
Or would you rather hand out business cards and cross your fingers?

Went to Reddit, couldn’t figure it out. Screw it just staying on YouTube.

Hey Daniel and Rex, I’ve watched probably half of your videos on my game console, so I have been unable to join the Tribe down here, but I dusted off my laptop so I could finally leave a comment for you guys.
1. I turned 21 in January and I pretty much only drank Crown Royal until late March when I stumbled across the Modern Rouge and their video about whiskey names with you guys. I jumped over to your channel and jumped right in and I haven’t looked back (or bought Crown) since.
2. I’m a bourbon guy, sorry. My first non-crown was Woodford Reserve and I liked it a lot. I love Bullet, Knob Creek and Four Roses Single Barrel, all thanks to you guys.
3. I have used your channel to convert my friend Daniel (great name, right?) from a vodka man into a fellow whisky guy, so far his favorite is Monkey Shoulder. He is already learning well from Rex, and he’ll show up and be like “have you tried _______” and then when I say no he’ll say “I bet the Whiskey Vault has a video on it” and within 30 minutes we’re leaving Total Wine with it.
4. Are there single malts you specifically recommend to convert a bourbon guy like me to your side?
Great!! One more to the list
like thats why i love costco with whiskies…glenfarclas 25 for £89.99
Cheap for the quality/age and then discounted even more 😀
Hey guys. As my whiskey journey has been progressing I’ve been drawn more and more to American Single Malts. In your opinion, in general, how much do American Single Malts compare to Scotch?
Did y’all mention a cigar vault????
You guys find these bottles in the US, please let me know. They’d be neat for mead.
My new band’s name is Dammit, I’m a Strawberry.
That is not at all how you have pronounced Ledaig in passed videos…
The Green Brothers Hank and John or the Logan bros aka suicide douche?
Next time you guys try reviewing other stuff you should try that $200.00 Sam Adams utopias. I hear it tastes like whiskey or home made wine. And the bottle looks neat.
If the after affects of the bourbon gave you such a strong (seemingly good) reaction, would that have not been a potentially good mix? Basically my question is how do you go about making informed decisions when mixing two different whiskeys?
Another great video! Glenfinnich 21 rum cask

We need to restore rex to mooch status dammit!
Just add a glass blowing studio to the grounds and you can get your green bottles. I can just imagine You guys blowing into the spinning tube with molten glass on the end.
Besides smoking the grain with something are there any other things that you can do to the mash ingredients to alter the flavor?
Excellent as always! I think Rex can call himself a master mooch… he earned it. Forget the bird spirit, but… Rex could also always mooch from an unsuspecting bird spirit nest, mooch an egg, hatch it… and you own it.
All Raster ideas are free for the taking. Take ’em, use ’em as you like. They are free as in Free Beer!
Cheers!
I had a night that I tried 6 different whiskeys throughout the night and #6 smelled dramatically like funky cheese. (It was a Kilchoman)
Hard to take a whisky seriously when named after a Womble!
sweet fish…Swedish fish?
