Nothing will ever beat having Baker Beam make me his favorite lunch in his own kitchen. Wow was this an episode out of fear factor. I’m usually adventurous but I had 3 things that I’ve never eaten before. Baker is a soft spoken true Kentucky legend but he laughed his ass off at my reaction . At least I got to taste some pretty killer bourbon.
Baker is now in his mid 80’s and has long since retired from being the master distiller at his grand uncle’s distillery Jim Beam. You also may know his fist cousin Booker. Do any of these name’s ring a bell yet?? Baker’s is by far the smallest & most dear Of Beams “top 4” ; Knob Creek, Basil Hayden’s, Booker’s & Baker’s.
Baker releases 2 age statement bourbons, 7 year & 13 year old, both at 107 proof. The 7 year goes for about $75 & the 13 year goes for about a cool $500 if, you can even find it. I think Baker got a kick out of watching me eat his Bologna & white bread sandwich with Dukes Mayo while washing it down with a Pepsi, because I got away with an 11 year 8 month old barrel with his name on it.
Obviously this baby was destined for the 13 year old batch. What, you thought I grew up eating bologna & mayo? Yuck!!! I didn’t even know Pepsi was still in business. He pulled 10 barrels for me to taste and I would have taken all 10 if he would have let me but obviously the one I “stole” was my favorite. If you consider the 13 year old is only 16 months older than mine you would think $300 is fair but specially for our Bourbon Buyers Club, I’m releasing the first 100 bottles at $105. Let’s be fair and limit it to 2 per customer.

I was given fourteen samples to taste through, and found that the 5th sample was the winner. This one is not for the faint of heart. It was a tiny barrel of just 40 six-packs, but the quality here was out of the world. It checks in at 110 Proof (55% alc.) and has harmonious sweet and savory notes that dual throughout this super long and memorable finish. It’s worth selling less bottles to bring you one this good – you guys are going to absolutely love it.
Our third single barrel of Whistle Pig and the first time we have our hands on their 6-year PiggyBack bottling. This one leads with a nose of freshly baked pumpernickel bread, butterscotch and toffee. On the palate, I get a lot of citrus & peach with a touch of lavender & black cherry. The finish here is strong & long with spicy dried fruits and caramel notes that linger. This one was distilled in house in Vermont, and as anyone can tell you with the farm releases, they always deliver the best of punches. This one comes in at 109.8 Proof.
The juice here is so pure and elegant, it tastes much more like a $80/bottle of Tequila than one going for half the price, but that’s why I love these single barrel deals so much. The value is insane. This Reposado spent just under 12 months in used bourbon barrels. Golden brown with fresh agave, oak & vanilla. Remarkably smooth finish. This is one of those oddball tequila’s that is good enough to just sip on the rocks but cheap enough to use to make one hell of a margarita.
This is definitely one of the most unique private barrels of bourbon you’re gonna find anywhere and it comes from our friends at in Kirby at Wyoming Whiskey. It’s been two years since we’ve had this baby! They make their own whiskey in-house instead of getting it shipped to them and finishing it. In doing so, they use winter wheat to churn out a medium length whiskey with notes of honey, burnt sugar, cinnamon and caramel on the finish. It’s sensational – but I only have 120 bottles from this barrel to offer up.
