The wonderful smell of grain when a fermenter is being filled hits me with a ton of nostalgia. We grew our own field corn when I was growing up in the mountains of eastern #Kentucky. The same corn that we use now to make @WildTurkey #Bourbon.
Crazy that I've been writing about Wild Turkey for nearly a decade. I'll hit the 10-year mark next month. 🥃🦃
If you have a whiskey blog and don't rely on AI to write your articles or reviews, I want to follow you.
This bottle receives more hype and hate than it deserves. I quite enjoy it. Won’t blow you away, but damn if it isn’t a lovely pour. 🥃
I just added some new single-barrel bourbons to the Special Selections page on my blog: NBC 10yo MGP (Kelvin), NBC 8yo KSBW (Kelvin), Green River Single Barrel (128.6 proof), and a James E. Pepper Barrel Proof Decanter. If you're looking for a special bottle, give this page a browse. Cheers!

Meet Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse 2026 Camp Nelson D, a 120.8-proof bourbon that Russell says tastes remarkably like a rye whiskey: buff.ly/ECa82nC

Double feature! Thanks to the Bourbon Junkies for checking out not one, but TWO of our most recent releases on their livestream last week. Cheers! 🥃 youtube.com/live/ATjpfIwRnpM…
Thanks so much, David! So glad you're enjoying it.
Wow. @RBird101 and Caleb’s Crossing Whiskey nailed this one: 1776-2026 rye. A blend of 8 year Kentucky ryes around 110 proof, including a 100% rye mashbill!
Complex and plenty of spice while still showcasing the fruity side of rye whiskey, with a thread of Lady apple that grabbed me and didn’t want to let go.

Caleb’s Crossing 1776-2026 Kentucky Straight Rye delivers an exceptionally cohesive, well-rounded sip, with mature Kentucky-sourced rye that showcases impressive consistency and complexity. breakingbourbon.com/review/c…
I know it’s a little early, but I had to give this one a celebratory pour after reading @BreakingBourbon’s review. Means a lot to me as a creator. Cheers! 🥃

If you're looking for a great sandwich, my go-to is a variation on the Will Ferrell. Pretty simple but delicious. Lightly toasted honey-wheat bread, Duke's mayo (has to be Duke's), deli-sliced salami, sliced grapefruit (I prefer white over red for this, but either works), and sliced mozzarella. Sounds crazy, but damn if it isn't incredible.
