Dads Drinking Bourbon

The Dads were joined by 4 of our friends: Jesse, Aaron, Glen, and Travis for a blind tasting to remember. Have you ever been interested in Willett? We give the rundown of what it's all about, and then have a blind tasting of six bottles of Willett from the 8XX bottles. These are bottles you can't get in a store, and you'll be pressed to find tasting notes, but we hope you enjoy the conversation between friends over some pours!

This is the true story of 7 people in a house and who had their night taped to find out what happens when people stop being polite and pick a barrel of WhistlePig Rye Whiskey. The Dads were joined by Tarak from Elixir Spirts, JB and Michael from the Whiskey House Nashville, Chandler from Best Brands, and Doug Ward from Whistlepig to tell us more about the brand, where they're going, and to give us a sneak peek at Crop 2 of FarmStock.

The Dads are joined by our friend TJ, who can be found working at Elixir Spirits in Spring Hill, TN or also on Instagram @morebeamforme. He also happens to be our resident expert on Jim Beam, so naturally we had to bring him in. Listen as the group runs through two rounds of blinds featuring Jim Beam products, until they eventually crown their individual winners of the night.

The Dads briefly touch on the new Weller C.Y.P.B and then sample and review four whiskeys: Doc.52 from Doc's Wine and Spirits in Memphis, TN, Uncle Nearest, and two selections from New Holland Spirits in their Beer Barrel Bourbon and Beer Barrel Rye. You're definitely going to hear some interesting tasting notes on this one!

The Dads are joined by Andy Chapman from Eat Y'all (www.eatyall.com) in an epic blind tasting in which we all brought two bourbons that were a mystery to each other. We drink these blind and rank them, but the conversation flows and meanders, as it does, as three guys sit around a table and talk about whiskey.

Listen as the Dads challenge themselves to one of their hardest blinds yet as they take on Elijah Craig. They put up a Grenade vs. the old 139 proof barrel proof vs. Batch B517 and Batch C917 from 2017. Can they pick these similar offerings out in a blind, or will it become an opportunity for growth and knowledge. Listen and find out!

The Dads honor "Bottled-in-Bond" day by putting Early Times BiB against 1792 BiB. Although we were late to the party (it was a week or two by the time this came out) we hope you still enjoy. Also, in finding new ways to challenge ourselves, we blind ourselves with three 1792 Full Proof Store Picks to see if there are any differences. Cheers!

The Dads sit down with Al Young, Brand Ambassador and Historian for Four Roses. Although we briefly touch on the history, we go in-depth to answer all the questions you want to know like: "Are there honey warehouses?", "Will Four Roses put out a Rye?", and discuss how he approaches things such as private barrel selections. We also go in depth as to how he selected his amazing 50th Anniversary Limited Edition Small Batch! Cheers!

The Dads return to what they do best, drinking whiskey, with some whiskey they had lined up waiting to taste. Join us as we dive into Pinhook Rye, Lot 40 Cask Strength, and Taconic Barrel Strength with a special surprise from our friend @scott_in_mn at the end. Cheers!

Join us for Part 2 of our sit down with Charlie and Andy Nelson where we peek behind the curtain to the operations, their current offerings, and where they're going in the future. We also got to have a couple of fun surprises with a tasting the fan-favorite Black Belle and a special release of "Right on the Honey" which was made only for a honey spirits summit in Nashville. Cheers!
