  • Extra! Extra!! Padcost listener "Tomnamurchan" challenges the J-Team to a Blind Tasting!
    Mar 25 2026

    There are few things we love more than interaction with our dear Padcost listeners. Tom J. (aka "Tomnamurchan") is one of our more active listeners. He's always sending questions in, letting us know when he's appreciated a podcast episode or a new bottling. Add to this, he's just a nice guy all around.

    A while back he sent us samples to taste blindly and, together, while they were in Scotland, the J-Team tasted through these whiskies and recorded the blind tasting. Add to this, Joshua brought in an insanely special pour to blind taste Jason and Jess on.

    Will the J-Team get these whiskies right? Will they get them wrong? There's really only one way to find out. Thanks again to Tom for sending the samples in. We appreciate you more than you can know.

    ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

    Special thanks to:

    - Weigh Down for allowing us to use their song "Wooden Monsters" as our theme song

    - RØDE for making *really* great microphones

    - Focusrite for making awesome USB receivers

    - Joshua Hatton for producing and editing
