No surprises, no having to play detective, no having to rant. Just whiskey. Honest, straight up, easy to discern, and know what you’re drinking, whisky – […]

After months of waiting, it’s finally here … Master’s Keep One. We’ve all heard the arguments: “toasted-barrel finishes are gimmicks,” “Wild Turkey must be running out of ideas,” etc. In all honesty, toasted-barrel finishes excite me as much as two fin…

Please enjoy our Boone County Pot Still Bourbon review! The Boone County Distilling Company as we know it has been around since 2015, although it is founded on a rich history dating back to 1833. Their releases up until now have been clear spirits, rum and sourced rye and bourbons. I have been a fan. Some of the labels, notably the Eighteen33 bourbons, are no longer with us, and they are missed. The future is now, though. Boone County has been waiting patiently for their bourbon to age. This first release is 5 1/2 years old. Made from a mash bill of 74% corn, 21% rye and 5% malted barley it was distilled in their 500 gallon copper pot still, named The Bear. It is bottled at 94.8 proof. Retail is $49.99.
