This week we crunched the numbers, did the research, and swooned over Jimmy Russell… oh and there was his Wild Turkey Rare Breed Bourbon. Our first review of a barrel proof bourbon. Find out if it was 116.8% too much for us, or hits the target right where it needs to.

Check out Wild Turkey's website, and Rare Breed too!

Other things we talk about:

Check out the Death-Bottle list! (Work in progress and will be cleaned up as we build on it)

What's up Everyone! Clint here providing the play-by-play this week. This week we are reviewing The Classic Laddie from Bruichladdich distillery. An Islay Scotch from a legendary name!

Stay tuned for discussions on:

This week’s episode is the first of our “special” episodes. For starters, we’re all recording together around a table. Second, we’re reviewing two different spirits today! Lastly, we hope you enjoy the accompanying tones of special guest, baby Dorit! 

The first on the list is Elon Musk’s Tesla Tequila! Lucky for us, Max was able to get his hands on a bottle before they sold out within hours! We’ll tell you if it’s as electrifying as their vehicles, or if it’s simply a stylish bottle. See the Tesla April Fools Thread that started it all.

You’ll have to listen to the episode to hear what we review after the tequila. Max decided to surprise the group with something…unique. 

Other discussions this week include:

This week’s whisk(e)y is Glenfiddich 12, the first Scotch of the show! It’s a Speyside single malt scotch with claims of being the “best dram in the valley.”

This week we’re blending our thoughts to see what Four Roses has to offer. This company has over 120 years of experience but only just came back to the USA ~18 years ago! Come find out if it's worth its legacy, or needs a revamp.

We recommend giving the Four Roses Site a look as they have great breakout information on how they make there blends.

Also discussed in this episode:

The star of the show this week is Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon. Will we be asking for a second glass, or leave it all for the Angels? 

Other discussions this week include:

We’re a show about four buddies finding out what it’s like to taste test whiskey. We obviously have no right to do it but that is the fun of it! It’s our first episode so we’re in here laying the ground work for the future. No big topic list for the first episode beyond who we are, what we’re doing, and how our very straightforward rating system will go. Have a listen!
