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 flavor is slightly sweat and incredibly smooth, yet maintaining a full body at the same time. No water is needed, but I do prefer it on the rocks. It is a great whiskey for summer…morning, evening or night. This innovation is far from the norm, but well worth trying. It is produced in traditional open rick warehouses in small batches and aged approximately five years.Bernheim is a 90 proof whiskey, but you would never know it. I would recommend this as a celebratory whiskey after a good hunt or an early morning on the lake. It is not a whiskey for saying farewell to a past lover or friend. Please don’t take my word for it. Try Bernheim Original for yourself. It is truly an American classic in the works. Thank you Pulpan for a great present! You guys have truly done something worthwhile with your drinking of horrible and fine whiskeys alike, which is more than most of us can say.

  • From the now for something completely different realm, Beam Global (they make Jim Beam and a number of the smaller batch bourbons we have reviewed) has launched an entirely different ad campaign called “The Stuff Inside.” The premise, while simple, is actually pretty deep and has nothing to do with bourbon. They are spotlighting people (all kinds of people) who bring passion to what they do and who they are. Check it out and submit your own thoughts. Pretty cool.

  • Thanks to Uncrate for the heads up on Wild Turkey’s new “super premium” bourbon. This must be the next logical step in the small batch bizarro arms race. Who knows if this stuff is any good (and full disclosure I am not a big Wild Turkey fan) but the bottle is definitely cool. Wild Turkey American Spirit

  • Just a heads up to check out Mark Gillespie’s podcast. He does a 15-20 minute podcast that is very informative for anyone interested in either bourbon or whiskey. You can check it out at www.whiskycast.com.
