Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch C924 Review: 129 Proof Bourbon Excellence The finish ties it all together expertly with torched sugar, chocolate mint, and lingering notes of marmalade and chai tea. It's perhaps not the stunner we were given at the end of 2023, but there's certainly nothing to complain about here.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Larceny Barrel Proof Batch C924 Review: A 125.1 Proof Wheated Bourbon Gem Pound for pound, there's no better value in barrel-proof wheated bourbon right now. I'm not sure why the price hasn't increased along with Heaven Hill's other annual barrel-proof trio, Elijah Craig, but I'm not complaining.
American Whiskey Reviews Parker's Heritage Collection Malt Whiskey Finished in Heavy Toast Cognac Barrels Review Cognac finishing like this is somewhat unique for an American whiskey, but it really sings with this well-aged malt, delivering a bright, silky aroma of ripe apricot, flamed orange peel, and soft wood smoke alongside the expected roasted and dark tones of the toasted oak.
American Whiskey Reviews Bernheim Barrel Proof Original Wheat Whiskey Batch B924 Review No one is going to be disappointed with this one. It's not quite the flavor bomb from earlier this year, but what it lacks in potency it more than makes up for in approachability.
Rye Whiskey Reviews Elijah Craig Toasted Rye Review Just look at that bottle. Leaning nonchalantly up against the wall of what appears to be a very nice Las Vegas bathroom. I can almost imagine it taking a long drag off a cigarette and telling me to lighten up. If an inanimate object could exude cool, it would be this one.
Rye Whiskey Reviews Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Rye Whiskey Review This is probably the most unique offering in the Grain to Glass lineup, not least because it's the only true cask strength expression.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Bourbon Review Like those whiskeys, this is expressive and well-spiced. The nose shows more barrel notes than the wheated release, with plenty of oak and clove, but there's a thick layer of caramel sauce and gooey apple pie underneath that makes for a silky, sweet aroma.
New Brand Releases History, Heat and High-Proof Whiskeys Mark Heaven Hill's Grain to Glass Launch “Ten years ago, this was but a figment of our imagination, and our partners helped our imagination become actual whiskey.

Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Wheated Bourbon Review You may have plenty of craft bourbons on the shelf with a similar story to this one, but how many truly grain-to-glass bottles do you own from the big boys?
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Old Fitzgerald 10 Year Old Bottled In Bond Bourbon Review (Spring 2024) The aroma is initially a bit gritty and grain-forward, with lots of roasted cereal and creamed corn upfront. With time to unwind, silkier notes of butterscotch, vanilla pudding, and peanut butter arrive, but there's still not a ton of depth.

Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Larceny Barrel Proof Batch B524 Review If any tells you bourbon is too one dimensional, all vanilla and butterscotch, hand them this bottle. It's a veritable fruit salad of flavor and aroma, kicking off with a rich, buttery nose of caramel-covered red apple, soft baking spice, and cocktail cherry.

American Whiskey Reviews Bernheim Barrel Proof Original Wheat Whiskey Batch A224 Review When Heaven Hill added Bernheim Wheat Whiskey to its barrel-proof portfolio early last year, it filled a big market hole. Wheat whiskeys at any proof are rare, but this barrel-proof offering is the only one from a major brand like it.

Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch C923 Review The nose on this goes for days ... bitter chocolate, clover honey, oak, mincemeat pie, lavender, dried roses, chamomile, leather jacket and cooked apples. It's warm from front to back to down the hatch, but it drinks nowhere near its 133 proof.

Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Larceny Barrel Proof Bourbon A123 Review Larceny is a wheater that gets too little attention in my opinion. Even the “Wheated bourbon only because I like wheat only” crowd doesn’t seem to go for it. Given the 92-proof of its flagship, I get it; it’s a softy.
