In episode 126, we did a deep dive on 13th Colony Double Oaked Bourbon. This unique expression has been one of the most sought after (yet polarizing) releases of the past few years. Just recently, we got together with some friends to talk about the upcoming "Best of" tasting which has become a tradition. In compiling the potential prospects for the competition, our friend Jordan decided to crack his bottle and share it with us for this short. In addition to our opinions about this new release, you will also hear the perspectives of some of our friends. Is this one worth chasing? We think so.

All of you lovely people out there have been asking for this episode for quite some time. In 2022, Green River Bourbon made it's long awaited return (or debut). Green River was founded in 1885 (KY-DSP-10). Despite a very fruitful start and many accolades for their bourbon, the distillery fell into disarray by the 1950s and was only recently resurrected. Since returning to the market, enthusiasts have been speaking the praises of the brand and bourbon beginners have been impressed with the quality at a friendly price. But, what will our esteemed hosts think about their two flagship whiskeys, the bourbon and the rye? You'll have to listen to find out. Join us as talk about sports heartbreak and old CD clubs while sipping on an array of Green River whiskey.

Recently, we surpassed 100K listens across our entire catalogue of episodes. Steven decided to surprise us by sharing an absolute heavyweight of bottles: William Larue Weller (from 2018). Coming in at 125.7 proof, this release of WLW received excellent reviews and is regarded as one of the better versions of this spirit in recent years. Join us as we taste and review this absolute treat of a bottle and reminisce on the journey thus far. Thank you all for your continued support of the podcast. Cheers.

CNB stands for Camp Nelson Rickhouse "B." The most recent (and third) release of Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse bourbon draws on stocks of whiskey from the famed Camp Nelson campus which is just outside of our homebase in Lexington, KY. If you take a gander back to episode 121, you will see that we compared both the "C" and "F" releases. In true Mash Up fashion, we started out the night hoping to simply review this newest release in the Russell's line. However, Kenny had other ideas and we ended up blinding all three Russell's Single Rickhouse releases. Shew. Who would do such a thing? Which release came out on top? Give us a listen to find out.

Jim Beam has been releasing limited edition bottles faster than we can keep up with. As a result, we thought it would be appropriate to review two brand new releases that are being discussed a lot: Old Grand-Dad 16 Year and Booker's The Reserves (2024 release). Both of these whiskeys are produced by Jim Beam, but they have different mashbills and there are significant differences in both age and proof. But, how do they taste? You'll have to listen to find out. Even though this is a "short" episode, we found a way to incorporate many blinds and pack in a ton of goodness.

This episode is special because it marks the comeback of our comrade Steven. How did we welcome him back? By reviewing a classic barrel proof bourbon. Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is a signature product from Heaven Hill that first released in 2013. As most know, this product releases three times throughout the year. For this week, we got our hands on the brand new C924 batch. With the newish age statement, this batch is 11 years old comes in at 129 proof. Over the years, we've said that ECBP Is one of the best and most consistent barrel proof products on the market? Will that trend continue with this most current batch? You'll have to listen to find out.

Back in episode 123, we tasted and reviewed the 2023 version of the Marker's Mark Cellar Aged bourbon. Thanks to Jason from Arsenic Culture, this episode focuses on the 2024 version. While this is supposed to be a Tuesday short episode, it turned into a medium episode thanks to a lot of blinding. Before we even got into the MM, we did a blind to help out one of our friends. Instead of a quick review, we decided to blind the current version of Cellar against its predecessor. As always, a ton of hilarity ensues and the guys are left debating which version of Marker's Cellar is better.

The Little Book series is something we've become accustomed to looking for every fall bourbon season -- so we were extra surprised when we saw this new release called "The Infinite." The first release of this new annual extension of the brand features distillate that comes from each of the three generations of the Noe family. But how does it taste and how does it compare to other LEs that we've tasted from Beam? Our buddy Jason from Arsenic Culture joined us again to help us review this most recent "chapter" of Little Book. You thought that we were done talking about our most recent Four Roses pick...well...wrong. Be prepared, because there are a lot of laughs and shenanigans as well as our take on this new LE from Jim Beam. Cheers!

The Starlight Distillery in Indiana is quickly becoming know for producing excellent and unique whiskeys. In this short episode, we taste a very special Starlight Single Barrel Bourbon that was selected by our good friends at bourbonoutfitter.com. If that isn't enough, we also taste and review a Starlight Bourbon finished in Pear Brandy Casks that was selected by a private group and provided by one of our listeners. If that really really isn't enough, then we have a surprise Kenny Mills blind involving a Starlight product that just might surprise all of you. Star rockets in flight, Tuesday episode delight.

During a recent conversation, we "discovered" that most of us didn't have experience with Bardstown Bourbon Company and their extensive series of products. A couple weeks ago, one of our listeners was in town for the Kentucky Bourbon Festival and was nice enough to leave us a generous sample of Bardstown Bourbon Discovery Series # 12. This blend consists of 6-14 year old and carries an ABV of 57.6%. To help us taste and review this bourbon, our friend Jason Hale from Arsenic Culture joined. As per the usual, much calamity and laughter ensues from the get and we have some very strong opinions about this bourbon. Good? Bad? Whiskey of the Year? You'll have to listen to find out.
