Imagine reading a review from Robert Parker that said ” #1 wine from America”. I think that would certainly catch your attention. Well, that’s just what Fred Minnick (The Robert Partker of the Whiskey/Bourbon world) said about Journeyman Distillery. “#1 Wheated Whiskey in America”. Shouldn’t that be #1 Wheated Whiskey in the World? Or are they holding out from us in Europe or Africa somewhere? Anyway, I digress.
He tasted over 600 blind during the pandemic. Sounds like his lockdown might have been better than most of ours! Journeyman makes 2 versions of Whiskey, one is the Featherbone & the other is the Corset, Whips & Whiskey which is the much more limited release. You know, if I’m going to do a private barrel with my name on it that I was picking from the Corset batch. Oh & I made sure it was bottled at full proof!

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.
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.
Today I snagged a really special single barrel that I have been working on for nearly two years now with Old Forester. It’s a 128.2 proof dynamo that will blow you away, and you’ll love every single sip. The nose is of fresh leather, baking spices & cocoa. On the pallet, this one is a monster & hits you with baked apple. brown sugar, vanilla & cinnamon. The finish goes on for two days long with notes of fig, cherries & clove. It’s big, but she’s a beauty.
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.
