Blade & Bow has a very interesting story. The idea for the brand was born from barrels tucked away from the old Stitzel Weller distillery. That name probably sounds familiar because its where Pappy Van Winkle originally came from. If you have a Pappy from the Stitzel Weller distillery than you are sitting on a down payment on a house. It’s also where the orphan barrels were found to make Jeffersons 17 yr Presidential. Going into their warehouses to grab barrels must have been like going in to a goldmine. Blade & Bow still has barrels from the distillery that they use to blend in to their Straight Bourbon.
Is it Pappy or is it Jeffersons Presidential? It’s actually a little bit of both. Those are the patriarch and matriarch for these barrels. They have this pretty unique process to make it all happen called the Solera Aging System where no barrel is every fully drained from Stitzel so some of the most amazing whiskey blends ever are just kept in barrel — there for the future blending. It’s like getting a racing horse today from the Seabiscuit bloodline. You’re paying for some pretty good genes!
Aged in new charred American white oak barrels, this bourbon offers up aromas of fresh oranges and peaches with pear, freshly baked bread and some toasted grain. Everything comes together harmoniously, it’s a really seamless blend. On the finish, notes of charred oak, s’mores and winter spices and a slight but inviting burn that comes with this 91 Proof gem.

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.
Back in the day, Widow Jane used to be a staple at Nicholas Wines. But as its popular has gone crazy, it’s been tougher and tougher to get my hands on any. This is a hyper small batch bourbon that was aged for a minimum of thirteen years, non-chill filtered and proofed with Widow Jane’s signature limestone mineral water from the Rosendale Mines in New York. It’s a doozy of a bottle at 93 Proof and has notes of vanilla, nutmeg, graham cracker and sweet tobacco.
This is the first release of its kind and was just announced last week. I snagged six bottles as soon as I could. It’s a U.S. only release, and it remains to be seen if there will be others. The Redbreast Kentucky Oak Edition is triple distilled in copper pot stills and matured in American Bourbon barrels and Spanish Oloroso Sherry butts. Then it’s finished for a minimum of 4 months in hand selected, air-dried American Oak from the Taylor family farm in Kentucky.
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.
