007 Series Ep. 20: Die Another Day (2002)/Michters Toasted Barrel Finished Rye

In this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we’re diving into one of the most polarizing entries in the James Bond franchise — Die Another Day (2002), starring Pierce Brosnan, Halle Berry, and an invisible Aston Martin. From ice palaces to DNA-swapping villains, we’re breaking down the wildest, most over-the-top Bond film of the Brosnan era. To pair with this explosive spy adventure, we're sipping on the bold and flavorful Michter’s Toasted Barrel Finish Rye — a rich, spicy pour with toasted oak and caramel notes that holds its own against the film’s big-budget insanity. We talk:

• Where Die Another Day ranks in the Bond canon
• The good, the bad, and the absurd
• That infamous theme song by Madonna
• Why Brosnan’s final outing deserves a rewatch (or maybe not?)

And of course, we dive into the flavor profile and finish of Michter’s Toasted Rye — one of the more sought-after bottles from Michter’s Distillery.
