Wild Turkey Master’s Keep One Review
Wild Turkey Master’s Keep One is the sixth entry in the MK line and employs something that keeps gaining steam in the industry, but hasn’t been seen in the rickhouses of Wild Turkey: toasted barrel finishing. Barrel finishing, on the whole, isn’t a super common thing at Wild Turkey, the Revival being the only recent, […]

Barrell Bourbon New Year 2022 Review
I enjoyed the 2021, so I’m looking forward to the Barrell Bourbon New Year 2022, the yearly release from Barrell to celebrate the end of one year and usher in the next. Last year I sipped on the 2021 as the clock marched towards midnight on NYE; it felt appropriate to be kicking 2019 to […]

Noah’s Mill Bourbon Review
Willett Distillery is perhaps best known for its highly sought after Willett Family Estate whiskeys, but there are many, many more brands also produced at this distillery. In fact, the Willett Family Estate is just a small percentage of the whiskey produced by Willett. One of these other brands is Noah’s Mill Bourbon.
There is not much information out there about Noah’s Mill, other than that it once bore a 15 year old age statement, as recently as the early 2010’s. It now may or may not be a blend of bourbons aged anywhere from 4-20 years and both wheated and rye bourbon recipes. That is purely conjecture, but info found all over the web.

Michter’s Toasted Barrel Bourbon Review (2021)
By Randall H. Borkus Rating: B+ This 2021 bottling is the first release of US*1 Toasted Barrel Finish Bourbon in three years. The Toasted Barrel expression is distinctive from the standard US*1 Bourbon as it undergoes a second round of maturation, following its initial rest (my best guess 6-8 years) in an American charred oak …
Wilderness Trail Four Grain Bourbon Review
Wilderness Trail Four Grain Bourbon is the distillery’s latest release. This limited edition bourbon was available for purchase at their holiday open house, and it is part of their cancer series.
The folks at Wilderness Trail Distillery have had prior releases to support families impacted by cancer, notably the F*ck Cancer bottles which had included the famous 15 year old Willett Bourbon purchased at the Bourbon Crusaders’ American Cancer Society benefit in 2018 and then aged another year at Wilderness Trail. There were other whiskeys also released in this series.
