Spirits Blind Tasting - A Spirits People Podcast

This is a Spirits People podcast by Johnny Michaelsen, dedicated to tasting fine spirits without the influence of brands and marketing. In each episode, I’ll be tasting fine spirits, not knowing what they are or who made them, and provide You with my detailed tasting notes following the WSET systematic approach to tasting.
