Premium Kentucky whisky, smoked with Manuka. Made in small batches with our secret Manuka smoking process.

It has a strong smoked single malt Whisky front followed by a smooth finish. Something quite special and tricky to make.

Originally released for the Travel Retail market, this edition of Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey is bottled at 100 proof, adhering to the rules sets as part of the Bottled in Bond Act, which was passed all the way back in 1897. The bumped-up ABV helps bring forward the bright fruit and oak spice notes. Aromas of cooked fruit dusted with cinnamon, toasted brown sugar and almond. Green apple and fried banana on the palate, paired with maple syrup and punchy black pepper. Oak and toffee stick around on the finish.

Master distillers and premier whiskey makers Jimmy and Eddie Russell have brought nearly 100 years of combined experience to artfully crafting Russell’s Reserve 10 Year Old Bourbon. Bottled at 90 proof, this hand selected small batch bourbon has a rich, caramel and vanilla taste and a uniquely smooth finish.

Unlike a typical 100% malt whiskey, Woodford Reserve is a Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey crafted from 51% malt and aged in new charred oak barrels, making it the malt whiskey for bourbon drinkers.

The base of 51 % malt results in a whiskey that is richly flavorful and complex and amplifies the nutty characteristics found in the original Woodford Reserve.

Taken from the center-cut or middle sections of the famous Warehouse H, Blanton’s Original Single Barrel was once designated for ambassadors, dignitaries, and Colonel Blanton’s family and friends. Today, everyone has access to the world’s first single barrel bourbon. The taste profile is sweet, with notes of citrus and oak. The creamy vanilla nose is teased with caramel and butterscotch, all underscored by familiar baking spices such as clove, nutmeg, or cinnamon. Blanton’s Original set the standard for single barrel bourbons in 1984. Best served neat or on the rocks. Bottled at 46.5% alcohol by volume.

Basil Hayden?s Bourbon is one of four bourbons that comprise Jim Beam?s Small Batch Bourbon Collection. The others are Knob Creek, Baker?s Bourbon, and Booker?s Bourbon. Basil Hayden?s falls first in line proof-wise at 80 proof. While the other three bourbons in the Small Batch Collection all share the same mashbill of 77% corn, 13% rye, and 10% malted barley, Basil Hayden?s is created using Jim Beam?s high-rye mashbill that is found in Old Grand-Dad and Old Grand-Dad 114.

Basil Hayden?s is named after the late Master Distiller Basil Hayden Sr. who was known for his use of high rye bourbon mashbills.

Tasting notes:  Nose is "vanilla lemon cake." The palate is a balance of caramel, vanilla, spices and citrus. I'm not sure if they made the opulent bottle to match the Whiskey or vice versa.

Gentleman Jack Rare Tennessee Whiskey has a rich, full flavor with a hint of fruits and spices. Since the whiskey has been twice mellowed, the finish is particularly smooth, warm and pleasant. Source: jackdaniels.com

Michter's Sour Mash Whiskey was once an incredibly popular expression back in the 1970s and 1980s, though in recent years, it had disappeared from the market. However, it has returned in the shape of Michter's US*1 Sour Mash Whiskey - awesome! Very well balanced notes of sugared almonds, cinnamon spice and vanilla sweetness.

It is made according to the traditional sour mash whiskey making process whereby some previously fermented mash is used as the starter for the new mash to be fermented. Typically in most sour mash whiskeys, this ?setback? from the prior fermentation accounts for about 10 to 20 percent of the new mash to be fermented. More than just a sour mash process whiskey, Michter?s Original US*1 Sour Mash is made from a special selection of grains, barrel aged, and later on filtered according to the exacting Michter?s standards. 

Bulleit Rye is an award-winning, straight rye whiskey with a character of unparalleled spice and complexity. Russet in color, with rich oaky aromas. The taste is exceptionally smooth, with hints of vanilla, honey, and spice. Finish is crisp and clean, with long, lingering flavors.

What happens when you bring two masters of the art of whisk(e)y making together to collaborate? Astonishingly delicious things, apparently. Legent Bourbon is the work of Jim Beam master distiller Fred Noe and House of Suntory chief blender Shinji Fukuyo. The whiskey itself is a bourbon made with one of Fred Noe's recipes, which is aged initially in charred virgin white oak. Following this, portions are finished in California red wine casks and sherry casks, before being blended by Shinji Fukuyo. Fantastic results ensued.

Nose: Plenty of classic bourbon character is at the forefront of the nose but the cask influence adds balance and depth. Brown sugar, toasted almonds, jammy fruits, butterscotch, vanilla and orange peel combine initially, with delicate warmth and spice provided from ginger root underneath. A hint of Pinot Noir and stewed black cherry emerge as the nose develops, with milk chocolate, sandalwood and hints of leather.

Palate: An initially deliciously silky delivery leads with rich caramel, floral notes and a suggestion of marmalade before chewy rye spice initially makes things more complex among savoury notes of roasted peanuts and a slightly bitter quality from charred wood, coffee beans and unsweetened dark chocolate. Dark cherry jam and stewed plums then burst through adding vibrant fruitiness alongside the sweetness of vanilla, cake batter, muscovado sugar and a hint of cola. Warmth from freshly-ground black pepper is present in the backdrop.

Finish: Chocolate-covered cherries, black fruits, sugary cereals (Sugar Puffs, mostly) and a hint of liquorice fade ever so gradually; while the nutmeg and oak spices play about for longer.

Aged for seven years and bottled at 107 proof, this is Bourbon (whiskey) for the stout of heart. It's the smoothest of Beam's Small Batch range, and has delectable flavours like toasted coconut, cashew and vanilla.Baker was a bit of a rogue, but his families love of distilling runs through his veins - it would have to considering his Grand-Uncle was the legendary Jim Beam.

Deep amber in colour with rich notes of dark fruit, caramel, sharp honey, chocolate, marzipan and toasted oak on the nose. To taste it is a full bodied mix of vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, apple, fruit and spices. ABV: 43.2%

The Single Barrel is much darker than the other JD whiskeys.; Six to sevenyears in the barrel leaves it a deep copper-red colour. In the mouthit is much more intense, and far fuller in flavour. The grain, caramel,vanilla and charcoal flavours are wonderfully balanced.source: alcoholreviews.com
