This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief takes listeners on a ride to Blanco, Texas to chat with Master Distiller, Marlene Holmes from Milam and Greene Whiskey.
Marlene sits down with the Big Man and chats about the history of Milam and Greene Whiskey. She also tells her journey through whiskey over the last 35 years, from the rolling blue grass hills of Kentucky to the prickly pair, mesquite, and junipers of the Texas Hill Country.
It’s a story of determination and grit. From the giant rick houses of Jim Beam to the Tiny Texas Distillery, Marlene has learned that she always has more learn about the wonderful world of whiskey.
On the first half, they start the show with Milam and Green Single Barrel at 86 proof. It has a little nuttiness like a Payday candy bar. They then sip on their Triple Cask Blend. At 94 proof, this blend from Texas, Kentucky and Tennessee has got a little kick and sweetness.
On the second half Marlene treats Big Chief to their Rye Whiskey that’s been finished in Tawny Port Barrels. The port barrel gives this whiskey a sweet tea taste. They finish the show with their very small batch. This straight bourbon whiskey was finished with charred French oak staves. At 108 proof it’s like a sticky sweet peach cobbler in a bottle.
This ride on The Whiskey Trip is a tribute to Marlene’s love and passion for her craft. Her life’s story is worth the trip to Blanco.
Cheers!
