As luck would have it, I just acquired one more bottle this week of this special Orphan Barrel offering.
Copper Tongue is the project out of Cascade Hollow Distillery in Tullahoma, Tennessee. They’re the ones responsible for making the George Dickel whiskeys. The distillery is nestled in a valley with a spring-fed creek in an area known for its population of copperhead snakes.
This particular project comes from superstar Master Distiller, Nicole Austin (winner of Whisky Advocate’s Whisky of the Year in 2019) who is changing the way things are done in Tennessee. The Orphan Barrels are made using Cascade Hollow’s single-story rickhouses — a very unique aging process to make them different from most anything else you can find.
Here’s what Nicole Austin had to say about her latest release that most in the whiskey world are swooning over. “One lot completely stepped away from all the stereotypes [of aged whiskey]. “It was very light and sophisticated, totally drinkable at cask strength. And the other one, it was very balanced, but to me it had that structure that tells you, I am drinking an old whiskey. I think blending the two was the right choice, because the ultimate product was more balanced and complex.
The Robb Report called it, “an outlier in all the best ways. It doesn’t taste like a typical Dickel whiskey, it doesn’t taste like it’s cask strength and it definitely doesn’t taste its age.” This sensationally smooth Tennessee whiskey really is in a category of its own.

True whiskey and Knob Creek enthusiasts are going to go nuts for this one. Knob Creek Rye is as outstanding as it is rare but today we’re lucky enough to bring to you, my own single barrel of it. This is a big gold expression of Rye that holds nothing back. On the nose, there are hints of dill, rye and essence of charred oak. On the palate, you are hit over the head with baking spice, honey and freshly baked bread. The finish is certainly a warm “Kentucky Hug” that goes on forever.
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!
The third release of three batches from Booker’s Bourbon 2023 Collection is Booker’s Batch 2023-03 ‘Might Fine Batch.’ These mini-releases have become extremely popular, and for good reason. “The vanilla and brown sugar sweet notes come through very well from the white oak barrels this bourbon aged in for over seven years. The taste is great and full bodied; when I added a splash of water, it opened up some great flavors, with a finish that gives a lovely “Kentucky Hug. My Dad would say that this is a Mighty Fine batch of Booker’s.” -Fred Noe
