Episode 76 has landed and it is Chinese New Year - the year of the tiger. As if by magic, we have a whisky that pairs perfectly with Peking duck, pancakes and hoisin sauce - listen in below to find out more!
WHAT’S IN OUR GLASS?
This week we’re sipping on Jura 18 year old. A whisky that perfectly showcases the signature style of Jura with its light peatiness that is harmoniously intertwined with caramel. Aged in ex-bourbon AND premier grand cru Bourdeaux barrels, this whisky is perfect for a little ‘you time’.

Buy it or Bin it!
It’s back, and we’re not sure how we feel about it this week. It’s vodka from The Wasabi Company - we will let you take an educated guess at what it might contain… but where did it end up? You’ll have to listen in to find out!

Drinks From Around The World
We don’t want to get you too excited but we cover two drinks this week. Have you heard of Byarozavik? It’s a traditional drink from Belarus made from birch sap that helps to keep low cholesterol levels. And with an extra nod to the new lunar year, Helena tells all about the world’s most popular spirit that you’ve probably never heard of.
Drinker’s Discovery
Helena has discovered Cannabrew, a craft beer brand that produces CBD lagers and cider. Crisp, pure and fresh they have 15mg of CBD per can meaning they are all about the chill without any hempy taste. What’s even better? For every case sold they plant 2 trees so there’s nothing not to love!
ABV: IPA 4.5% // Cider 4%
CBD: 15mg
Find here: IPA £37.19 for 12 // Cider £37.19 for 12
