This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief takes listeners on a journey to southern Alabama to visit Seth Dettling, the founder and distiller of Dettling Bourbon. Together, they explore the story behind this rising Southern brand that has whiskey enthusiasts lining up for every drop coming off the stills.

The episode kicks off with a tasting of Dettling Bourbon Bottled in Bond, featuring a unique mash bill of 70% corn, 15% rye, 12% oats, and 3% roasted malted barley. This bourbon is rich and viscous, offering flavors of crème brûlée, kettle corn, espresso, and dark chocolate.

In the second half, they dive into a Single Barrel Cask Strength expression with the same mash bill, bottled at 118 proof. Big Chief describes it as a "no-bake cookie" in a glass, with notes of fudge, peanut butter, oats, dark fruits, and perfectly balanced spice.

The Gulf Coast is making waves in the whiskey world, adding to its distilling legacy rooted in rum with bold takes on America's native spirit. Cheers to another unforgettable journey on The Whiskey Trip!
