    Ep 34: Echlinville Distillery with Séamus Óg Birt (Dunville's Whiskey, Old Comber Distillery)

    13/03/2026 | 51 mins.
    This week, we've got the fantastic Séamus in to talk all things Echlinville - we've got the Old Comber and Dunville's stories, plus so much more, including sneak peeks of things still to come!

    Making use of history and strong heritage is difficult, but Echlinville Distillery have nailed the process, preserving the stories, products and practices of three Northern Irish whiskey legends and doing all the work within a stone's throw from home.

    Séamus takes us through the whole story of why the history is so important, how they preserve it, and what they plan to do with it in the future.

    Ep 33: Supermarket Vs Independent - Is There Really A Difference?

    06/02/2026 | 19 mins.
    This week, we've got a spicy one. Joe, Paddy and Ethan have gotten hold of a supermarket bottle of Porta 6, one of our bestselling wines. They're going to compare it to the same product from a leading supermarket and see if there really is a defference.
    You've heard the rumours and myths before, but now we're putting them to the test. People will tell you that one bottle is better than the other, but why? Now's your chance to find out.
