Meet Joe Magowan…

Joe Magowan is an Irish Whiskey Expert from Belfast who spends his days educating people all over the world about "the water of life."

In this episode we talk about:

  • Growing up working in The Vineyard

  • The history of Irish Whiskey

  • What "the angel share" is

  • And his most significant memories throughout his life

We also sample some Powers during the show (including one of the best Irish coffees I've ever had) to draw out some of the key tasting notes and stories connected to the brand. 

Check it out.
