01:00 Ape kicks it right off as there are three bottles to get to – first up, the Cavehill

05:40 The Bitches & Bourbon theme song shows up in the damnedest places

10:00 …and the placement inspires Ape in the weirdest way (and yes, I know we never get back to the Margaret Waterbury. Ape has put it on deck for another episode.)

17:30 Next up – the Heigold

20:25 Flavor profiles can be so different, so we digress into gin for a minute

22:20 Back to the Heigold

25:00 We have great gift ideas for these Rabbit Hole bottles

26:00 The Rabbit Hole story

27:00 Rabbit Hole does other things, like vodka, and that scares Ape just a little

29:50 We put the Heigold on ice, and Ape has to take a phone call

32:45 On to the Dareringer

36:40 Dareringer on ice

37:40 The Rabbit Hole wrap up
