info_outlineToday, we'll take you on a journey through rare and unique rye whiskeys, share some hilarious anecdotes from our recent show mishaps, and delve into the science behind aging whiskey.
But first, let's talk about the art of whiskey appreciation. We explore the notion that a fine bottle of whiskey can be more than just a drink; it can be a cost-effective alternative to expensive artwork. We recommend the exceptional "rare breed rye" whiskey, priced at $50, as a stellar choice to elevate your collection without breaking the bank.
In a lighter moment, we recount a conversation with a friend who sought refuge from the scorching heat. The discussion takes a hilarious turn as we debate the merits of Saran wrap versus vacuum-sealing as a means to prevent leakage. While we may not be experts in the science of whiskey aging, we examine the potential risks vacuum-sealing poses to the aging process, leaving us with lingering doubts.
Moving on to the star of the show, we introduce a remarkable fourteen-year-old rye whiskey distilled in Indiana and aged in Kentucky. This whiskey offers a full-bodied aroma of sweet vanilla buttercream, with tantalizing flavors of banana bread, berries, baking spices, and orchard fruits. Its finale is a symphony of orange marmalade and dark chocolate notes. We share our thoughts on this complex and life-changing 90 proof whiskey and debate its overall value.
But that's not all; we also have an exclusive sneak peek into the highly anticipated Jack Daniel's single barrel, barrel proof rye. Picked by our esteemed hosts, and Bob & James, this whiskey carries a proof of 133.2 and promises to be a hot commodity. We explore the nuances between different single barrel releases and show you why each has a distinctive character and story to tell.
As we sip on our favorite bottle of rye whiskey, we reminisce about hilarious encounters, including a memorable visit to a rest stop in Alabama featuring a chance encounter with an Elvis impersonator.
So sit back, pour yourself a glass, and join us as we embark on this whiskey-filled adventure, exploring the wonders of rye, the art of aging, and the joy of sharing a bottle with friends.
