Tony and Fingers review Montana’s Running Iron Straight Whiskey from Dry Hills Distillery.

It’s a 90-proof straight whiskey made from 100% wheat, which sends Tony into full investigative mode after discovering it does not appear on Dry Hills’ current website. The guys break down the nose, palate, heat, oak, fruit, cinnamon, vanilla, and what happens when it opens up with water or a cube.

The big question: is it worth hunting down at around$50 a bottle?

Also: Anheuser-Busch plans a major U.S. investment, Tony and Fingers revisit the Bud Light backlash, Fingers explains why he wants to be left alone with his beer, and Tony learns something disturbing — Fingers has never seen Top Gun.

Plus, Apple succession talk, John Wick confusion, Spinal Tap 2 anxiety, and a plan for a movie marathon involving cigars and steaks.

Happy Hour - Montana’s Running Iron Straight Whiskey

This week onEat Drink Smoke, Tony and Fingers review the Tatuaje Avion 13 Corojo and Woody Creek Distillers Colorado Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

The Tatuaje Avion 13 Corojo is a 6 7/8 x 52 double perfecto with a Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and filler. Tony and Fingers break down the cigar’s cedar, red pepper, coffee, cocoa sweetness, creamy texture, spice, draw, construction, and whether it belongs in the humidor at around $13 a stick. Spoiler: this one made a very strong impression.

On the drink side, the guys sample Woody Creek Distillers Colorado Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a 90-proof bourbon made with 70% dent corn, 15% rye, and 15% malted barley. They talk oak, honey, vanilla, rye spice, sugar cream pie sweetness, heat, water, a cube, and whether it earns a spot in the liquor cabinet at $50 a bottle.

Also this week: Tony and Fingers clear up some confusion over the different Tatuaje Avion blends, debate whether Costco is ruining civilization by offering bottled water with its hot dog combo, discuss TSA officers leaving during the government shutdown, and review a Mother’s Day gift list that somehow includes earplugs, a fish-shaped water pitcher, and a $95 hairbrush.

Plus, Chinese EVs with built-in toilets, why Fingers wants one only as a way to avoid driving people places, Tony’s motel bathroom emergency, cigar notebooks, Indy 500 radio coverage, and why Defiance Beef may be the only Mother’s Day gift list anyone really needs.

Tony and Fingers review the Rocky Patel Vintage Cameroon 2003 Toro.

Tony revisits a cigar that helped move him from “I smoke cigars” to “this could be part of my life.” The guys break down the Cameroon wrapper, cedar notes, spice, sweetness, construction, draw rhythm, and whether the cigar belongs in the humidor at around $12–$13 a stick.

Also this week: Fingers explains why 7-Eleven is not where you go to “make tonight special,” Tony has thoughts about Vegas losing another buffet, the guys discuss whether lobster boiling needs a rethink, and Fingers remains deeply opposed to cruise weddings.

Plus, a gas station find that got away.

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up the Rocky Patel Vintage 2003 Cameroon, a 6.5 x 52 Toro with a Cameroon wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and Nicaraguan/Dominican filler. Tony calls it one of the cigars that helped turn smoking from a curiosity into something he genuinely loved, while Fingers wonders why he doesn’t already have a stack of them in his humidor. They break down the cigar’s cedar, spice, sweetness, construction, and why this classic still belongs in the rotation.

The guys also pour Montana’s Running Iron Straight Whiskey, a 100% wheat whiskey connected to Dry Hills Distillery/Montana Distillery, and debate whether its honey, vanilla, cinnamon, oak, orchard fruit, and dry finish justify the $50 price tag.

Also on the show: 7-Eleven tries to become Wawa, Vegas loses another buffet, lobster researchers ruin dinner, cruise weddings are a crime against friendship, Anheuser-Busch invests $600 million in America, Tony discovers Fingers has never seen Top Gun, and somehow Porky’s 3 becomes part of the cinematic conversation.
