Since I had never heard of it and the bottle looks like something right out of the 19th century, I had to try it. Apparently invented by Augustus Bulleit, so it’s got that going for it, which is nice. However, it seems this particular brand has been around only since 1987. And I think the [...]

Jack Daniel's No. 7 | Rating 82
I’ll admit up front that I am partial to the Jack Daniel’s line of whiskeys, especially the black label. It was the whiskey that I cut my whiskey drinking teeth on. I love the fact that it is somewhere in the middle of the road as far as not being too sweet and not being [...]

Evan Williams Single Barrel 1994/Green Label | Ratings 35/71
To steal a line from Doug Moreland, when trying to answer the question “What did you think of the ‘only vintage bourbon’ being made?” I have to say “well let me see, let me think…” Here’s the thing: this is not a bad bourbon. In fact it is pretty good. But for all of the fuss they make about it being a vintage bourbon, you would think it would sing a song and dance with you.

Baker's | Rating 90
From the Jim Beam family, their number 2 in the line, 2nd to
Booker’s. Great flavor, the oak aging is very noticeable when it hits your lips.

Blanton's | Rating 99
The name is Blanton’s but it should be called “The Best,” that is self explanatory. This perfectly selected single barrel bourbon has the perfect amount of wood, the perfect kick, with a perfect combination of bite and hint of vanilla at the finish. That might be alot of perfects, but that is just this bourbon. [...]

Bernheim Original
Bernheim Original Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey is not the typical whiskey made of corn, barley or rye. This whiskey is the newest venture in whiskey making since prior to the days of prohibition and it has turned out great. The whiskey is composed with a minimum of 51% wheat and adds a great flavor. The [...]
