Dads Drinking Bourbon

The Dads get their hands on Pinhook's new Bourbon Country Cask Strength, which was a blend of 75 MGP barrels to create this 115 proof release. It's the perfect episode right after Thunder Over Louisville to get you in the mood for the Derby happening in a couple of weeks. Cheers!

One of the best things about being able to podcast at Whiskey Warmer this year was to get all the attendees involved in making a barrel selection along with the Dads and Justin and James from Barrels & Brews of Leiper's Fork Distillery's Col. Hunter's Single Barrel. In fact, this is the first time a cask strength single barrel of Col. Hunter's will be released. The Dads dig in on this episode to give you tasting notes and to tell you which barrel won. Hope you enjoy. Cheers!

We had such a great time last week at the Whiskey Warmer in Franklin, TN. To all of you that came up and talked to us, thank you! We loved meeting all of you. A special thanks to Leiper's Fork Distillery and Carother's Wine and Spirits for everything they did to make the barrel pick happen. Hope you enjoy this podcast which was the best of the night. It may be a little loud, but what can we say?! The place was rockin! Cheers!

Carol Ann Coughlin, one half of the husband and wife duo behind Taconic Distillery in Hudson Valley NY, was in Nashville and she was nice enough to sit down with the Dads. We discuss the story of Taconic, while sipping on three whiskeys Carol Ann was nice enough to bring with her. Hope y'all enjoy, cheers!

Our friend Bob Little is back in town and he brought some bourbon along with him from Glenn's Creek for us to try. This episode we sip on OCD #5 as well as their Stave and Barrel Double Oaked. Glenn's Creek is at the former site of the Old Crow Distillery and we've heard great things about these so far. We were definitely looking forward to this one! Cheers!

In an episode that is long overdue, John sat down with Lee Kennedy, the owner of Leiper's Fork Distillery, for a great conversation about their distillery and all the good things going on there. In addition, they also talked about the single barrel of their Col. Hunter's that YOU will be able to have a hand in selecting if you come see Lee and the Dads this Saturday at the Whiskey Warmer in Franklin, TN.

On a Sunday morning nestled in the Nations neighborhood in Nashville, TN, a distillery awaits a release on Monday of their four year Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey. That distillery, Pennington Distilling Co., also was sitting on the huge news they were working with Ashley Barnes (former Buffalo Trace and Four Roses guru) and Monica Wolf (bourbon business guru) for the release. We were invited in to see a little behind the scenes and to spread the word on what they're doing. Enjoy!

In this episode, we learn not only of Zeke's love of camo pullovers, but we also learned about the Dads' recent barrel pick at Wild Turkey. John also got to spend a little extra time in Kentucky so they discussed his trip. Later, the Dads had a side-by-site of Taconic Distillery's Double Barrel Maple Bourbon Whiskey Batch 3 and Batch 4. Cheers!

The Dads talk about a couple of picks for Old Elk they were just on as well as give a preview for the Leiper's Fork Distillery Col. Hunter's Select pick that will be happening while they are podcasting at Whiskey Warmer on March 30 (get your tickets now). In addition, they review Rabbit Hole, a four grain straight Kentucky bourbon. Cheers!

After a long couple of barrel selections of Old Elk Cask Strength Bourbon in Nashville, Greg Metze was nice enough to sit down with us for a conversation. The only problem was that he only had 20 minutes before he had to go to the airport (don't worry we'll be talking to him again). After talking to him, it's easy to see that there are going to be great things coming out of Fort Collins, CO with Old Elk. Listen and hear for yourself!
