Heaven’s Door relates to Bob Dylan’s Knocking on Heaven’s Door. Turns out Bob is a huge bourbon drinker (usually just before he goes on stage if you’ve seen him lately) & he threw a ton of his own money to start this brand. I had no idea.
Think about it: all these years of being “in the basement mixing up the medicine” has made him a lot of money & he could’ve gone anywhere to source his juice. He chose Indiana and I don’t really find it surprising because of the quality. For us it works out better because a bourbon this good at cask strength from Kentucky would cost around 100 bucks!!
I just re-tasted this beauty and was really pleased with how this one turned out. I can’t believe this is nearly 123 Proof (122.7). You really never get any of the heat. I wouldn’t have thought it was over 105 tasting it. It leads with inviting aromas of burnt caramel, hazelnut, and allspice mix with flavors of dried fruit, caramel, vanilla, and light rye spice. The finish is warm and spicy with subtle and smooth notes of vanilla and oak. This is a great one.

This is a very rare single barrel Bourbon Whiskey to make its way to Jersey. Maple syrup, butterscotch, caramel & brown sugar with a palate of caramel apple, roasted almond, ripe banana and graham crackers. This one has a full mouthfeel with a nice creamy middle. The finish here lingers with just the right amount of burn. This was born on 2/3/2017 and bottled at 102 Proof. This is a great bottle of Whiskey.
With their ninth installment, Whistle Pig’s Boss Hog keeps all five of their ‘Boss Hog’ promises and then some. It’s a super unique bottling as always – a Straight Rye Whiskey with two world’s first finishes. It was finished in barrels seasoned with Greek fig nectar and scratch tentura, a Greek style liqueur. It’s a single barrel bottled at proof between 102-107. For another nice touch, The Boss Hog IX features 9 unique designs, in the likeness of the 9 Muses, randomly distributed on bottles across the country.
This is the fourth and last installment of the Booker’s Small Batch collections from 2022. I’ve noticed that with each one, the quality continues to rise, but unfortunately it seems like that’s true of the price as well (for everything!). The Pinkie’s batch is in honor of Booker Noe’s dad, the original Frederick Booker Noe, better known as “Pinkie”. It’s a gorgeous Bourbon at over 122 Proof but you never feel the heat. It’s a seamless, gorgeous blend.
With Makers you get to blend your own barrel using different different wood staves of varying levels of char & wood. In blending these barrels, there are 1001 possible combinations. For mine, I used 3 baked American pure, 2 seared French Cuvée, 2 Maker’s 46, 3 roasted French Mocha staves. It hits the senses with fragrant notes of toffee, caramel apple and coffee. Despite being high alc., it’s crazy smooth and seductive with vanilla and caramel notes and a creamy finish that delivers a super enjoyable slow burn. For me, this is hands down the best Maker’s Mark that I’ve ever tasted.
