This week I sit down with a long-time friend within the industry and a bit of a mentor, though I would not say it to his face, Mark Shilling joins the show.

Mark Recently took over as CEO of Susto Mezcal and joins me today to catch up.

A good time was had by all!

Whiskey Neat is a Radio show on iTunes and ESPN 97.5 FM in Houston and is brought to you every week by the following sponsors.

Waterford!

If you're familiar with the concept of Terroir in wine, you'll appreciate Mark Reynier's Waterford "Single Malt Whisky" from Ireland. Mark is combining his Scotch whisky and fine wine talents to produce an authentic series of Irish Single Malt Whiskies based on traditional wine industry principles.

2021 Icons of Whisky - A brand innovator and Irish Distiller of the year - San Francisco World Spirits Competition Double Gold - one of 750com's Game Changers is proving that Waterford is indeed different.

How? Authenticity! The Terrior code on each bottle reveals the entire story of that whisky. Full disclosure, full traceability.

100% pure Irish barley creates an intensity of flavor derived from exceptional steps in the distilling process. Waterford is gastronomic because it's honest.

Waterford's Single Farm Origin is one farm, one whisky. The collection reveals the Terroir of each farm and its unique flavor profile.
Waterford's Arcadian series: Flavor through Agronomy - Organic Gaia and Biodynamic Luna - Single Malt Whiskies
Waterford's hyper-rare Cuvée series: Flavor through complexity, layering components from several farms

Widely available across the US, visit our friends at glassrev.com to discover "where to buy" this innovative, game-changing new single malt whisky.

Waterford - sometimes subtle, sometimes powerful, always unique.
