Blanton`s Original Bourbon
$94.99
According to the Blanton’s website, “The finest bourbon in the world comes from a single barrel. That’s the way Colonel Albert B. Blanton first bottled his private reserve bourbon nearly a century ago. Blanton believed the “center-cut” or middle sections of Warehouse H were the best for aging his bourbon. Personally tasting and choosing each barrel, these barrels were reserved and bottled for ambassadors, dignitaries, family and friends becoming the world’s first single barrel bourbon. His time-honored tradition lives on today as only a handful of barrels from the center of Warehouse H are selected to become Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon."
Wild Turkey Russell`s Reserve 10 Year
$73.99
Russell's Reserve gets its name from the father/son Master Distiller duo of Jimmy and Eddie Russell, both of which help run Wild Turkey Distillery near Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. At 10 years old, the bourbon is bottled at 45% ABV.
Master Distiller Jimmy Russell and Associate Master Distiller Eddie Russell are the only father-son duo in the Bourbon Hall of Fame.
Wild Turkey was named such by an executive from Austin Nichols, who poured some barrel proof bourbon for friends on a wild turkey hunt. The whiskey was a hit and the next year he was asked to bring more of that Wild Turkey bourbon for the annual hunt.
1792 Small Batch Bourbon
$57.99
LIMITED TO 1 PER CUSTOMER
Kentucky became a US state in 1792, and this — the official toasting bourbon of the Kentucky Bourbon Festival — was made to commemorate the occasion. The 1792 Ridgemont Reserve Bourbon is handcrafted in small batches, bottled at 93.7 proof and then aged eight years in new charred oak barrels. The result is smooth, mellow, rich and warm.
Breaking & Entering American Whiskey
$83.99
Breaking & Entering American Whiskey is crafted by St George Spirits of Alameda, California. It is a blend of Rye and Bourbon sourced from both Kentucky and Tennessee along with St George Distillery's own whiskey that they produce in house. Bottled at 45% ABV.
St George Distillery has been in operation since 1982 and produces a variety of different spirits, including Gin, Eau de vies, Absinthe, and Whiskey.
From The Producer
"We deliberately chose the name Breaking & Entering in order to be transparent about the fact that we use barrels we pilfered from other distilleries to make this whiskey—and to distinguish our barrel-thieving side hobby from our own longstanding in-house whiskey program."
George Dickel No. 12 Tennessee Whiskey
$31.50
The No. 12 is a high corn mash (84% corn, 8% rye, and 8% barley) Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey produced by the Cascade Hollow Distillery of Cascade Hollow, Tennessee. The distillery was formerly named the George Dickel Distillery until it was changed in 2018.
Being a Tennessee Whiskey, George Dickel is put through the Lincoln County Process, where the new make spirit is filtered through sugar maple, charcoal before being put into barrels. Apparently, the Cascade Hollow distillery goes a step beyond just using this as a filtration/mellowing method and actually lets the new make steep for a period of time in the charcoal before running it through.
The George Dickel brand and Cascade Hollow Distillery are owned by Diageo, which is the largest spirits maker in the world, also owns the Bulleit and IW Harper brands of Bourbon, to name a few. Even the company would likely admit they are currently playing catchup in American Whiskey right now though, as it’s only Bourbon Distillery just recently started operations.
Sazerac Rye
$60.99
This whiskey is produced at the scenic Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. This is not a single barrel but a small batch from the mixing of a very small group of barrels. The design of the bottle is reminiscent of pre Civil War days when barrels of whisky were poured into ornately engraved decanters supplied by the distiller. While the label is now silkscreened the shape is reminiscent of the style. This rye will change anyone's mind about rye whiskey for the better!
Distiller's Tasting Note: "Aromas of clove, vanilla, anise and pepper. Subtle notes of candies spices and citrus. The big finish is smooth with hints of licorice."
Knob Creek Single Barrel
$65.99
This is Knob's Creek's Kentucky Bourbon kicked up a notch, bottled at 60% and from a single cask. Each barrel will vary a little from the next. As each cask is unique, so is the whisky from each. Produced by Jim Beam Distillery in Clermont, Kentucky - the Single Barrel version of Knob Creek is 9 Years of age or older and is bottled at 60% ABV. Like the Knob Creek Small Batch, the Single Barrel version purportedly uses Jim Beam's 'Low Rye" mash bill of about 75% Corn, 13% Rye, and 12% Barley.
