Old Elk is a project that those in the “know” have been waiting a decade to come to fruition. Greg Metze was the master distiller at MGP for the last 38 years and is the wizard behind the curtain of many of your favorite bourbons. He left MGP to start his own project & turn all of his experience in to his Opus. Old Elk makes a few different expressions but what I found the most interesting is his Wheated Bourbon. To have the opportunity to buy a bottle from a single barrel of 6-year-old juice at cask strength from Old Elk is what the Bourbon Buyers Club is all about.
Bottled at Cask Strength – 115.4 proof
A very balanced sipper for sure- on the nose, buttered popcorn, vanilla & Toffee.
On the palate- dried peach, baked apple pie & milk chocolate.
The finish is long and lingering with a sweetness that gives way to winter spice that goes on for 2 minutes .

Basil Hayden’s Kentucky Straight Bourbon is one of those go-to entry level whiskies that you can always count on to deliver. A product of the Beam Distilling Co., the Kentucky Straight checks in at 80 Proof and has a robust, rich flavor that hits you in waves. Charred oak, with notes of honey, caramel and fresh baked bread flood the senses with a brown sugar dominant palate that also features creme brulee notes and a hint of pepper. The finish goes on for a while, and leaves lingering notes of dried fruit, and cocoa.
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!
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.
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
