@@brandondewitt6846 They did a video on it a while back but they made the decision for Rex to go 100% on the tribe and Daniel to take over the Vault again because the lines between Crowded Barrel and the Wizard Academy were getting blurred. The Academy is a non profit and can't be associated with a business as they were doing, they were toeing some lines legally so they are just hard lining it to save any trouble and let everyone focus on things much more directly. Daniel technically doesn't even work for CB anymore as far as I'm aware

In a way it’s like Abbot and Costello parting ways. Or any other great partnership. I miss the dynamic of the 2 of them. I really do. But the sum of the parts… is getting a chance to shine. And there’s something to be said about that.👍 I do enjoy this series… And I do enjoy Rex’s channel. But still… It’s like hanging out with a divorced couple… separately. I like them both… But I liked them both together more.🤷♂️😊👍🥃

What a great history lesson on Irish whiskey. When i took my family to Ireland we visited Knappogue Castle. It is a great place to visit, my kids were running all over the place having the time of their life. It wasn't until I got home that I was in a liquor store and saw this on the shelf and tried it. I have appreciated it ever since.

Love the history - this is part of what makes the hobby great! Also, Knappogue Castle 16 has been my go-to Irish for some time, even though the last few years it’s become harder to find, especially in Massachusetts, where almost no one will ship alcohol in to unless you’re a retailer. Fortunately, the local pub keeps a bottle on hand for me when their distributor has it! I think it’s a really good bottle that is still reasonably priced compared to the rise in Scottish and (especially) Japanese whiskeys since roughly 2015.

Knappogue has been one of my favorites. We had a pub in Corktown, Detroit called Baile Corcaigh. My wife and I walked in and were the only customers so we just sat at the bar. We asked the bartender which whiskey was the best - he lined eight or nine half shots on the counter and explained each one. My wife and I both loved the Knappogue best. By the time we were done and ordered dinner, the place became packed. The bartender said we were good luck and he gave us each a giant glass of Knappogue. Our favorite pub was lost to 2008...

Enjoyed the history lesson and now have a bigger appreciation to Irish Whiskey! This got me curious about whisky making for the rest of the UK. I had never thought about Welsh or English whiskies being a thing until now. It looks like there is only a handful of either now, so I wonder how prominent it was historically in these countries. I do not know much about this, but was it mainly smothered out by the temperance movement?

It's just linguistic shift. They're all misspelling "uisge" anyway. The laws everywhere I've looked (US, Ireland, England/Scotland) all treat the 'e' as optional. Obviously because they don't want it to double their effort to tax and regulate it.

No, I think the English sort of considered Scotch and Irish to be "their" whisky as well, so culturally that production stayed there. But there is a lot of English gin distilling history. And in modern era, there's a growing English craft movement that is awesome.

You skipped over why Irish whisky isn't usually single malt. When, in 1785, the English Malt Tax caused Irish distillers to use unmalted barley in their distilling to screw the English and avoid the Malt Tax.
