I’ve been trying to snag a single barrel of Bulleit for the last few years. But with their new distillery under construction, landing a barrel pick up until recently has pretty much been an impossible talk.
You know the moment they opened up I was angling to get in first. Their new place is insane. Bulleit must have been making a fortune over the last few years to afford this place. I’m telling you a tour of this place is 100% necessary if you’re ever down in Kentucky. (I included some shots from my trip on the product page, check em’ out.)
Bulleit uses multiple mash bills & yeast strains (pictured in the gallery) that they blend together to make their bourbons. I was lucky enough to get to taste through the entire lot of them blind & then pull my top five barrels to pick from.
Crazy thing is all 5 barrels were yeast strain 4 & Mashbill E. What can I say, I like what I like. Mashbill E consists of 75% Corn, 21% Rye, 4% Malted Barley. They use yeast strain 4 to add a leathery spice characteristic to the blend & Mashbill E to give a sweetness. To me it makes for the absolute perfect single barrel. This single-barrel beauty is 7 years old & was bottled at 104 Proof. On the nose I got fresh cut oak, vanilla & brown butter. On the palate, freshly baked banana bread, burnt orange creme brulee & graham cracker.

The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino from Aleramici hits all the right notes. It has a nice medium weight to it with easy drinking cherry, creme de cassis and purple fruits. It’s multi-dimensional with waves of some dark plum and blackberry with more sage and spice components as well that compliment it perfectly.

“So aromatic and fresh with black olives, black truffles, gravel and dried flowers. Milk chocolate. Ovaltine. Full-bodied with fantastic old-vine tannins. Layered and very structured. Goes deep and down. One for the cellar. Superb. Maybe the best ever.” -James Suckling
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
Bulleit isn’t usually one to come out with too many new or limited releases, but the ‘Frontier’ Limited Release bucks that trend. This American Single Malt was made with 100% malted barley, aged in new American spiced oak casks, and bottled at 43% alcohol. It hits with notes of freshly baked pumpernickel bread, candied orange, dried fruits, and maple syrup. She’s a beauty – just wish I had more to sell!
