The bourbon industry is moving at the speed of light. In a years time I went from being begged to buy Old Forester to begging to buy Old Forester. Crazy, I had to really put pressure on Old Forester’s Master Taster Jackie Zykan to sell me a barrel. She told me with the bourbon shortage that they were really limiting who they were selling barrels to. There was no chance I was leaving Kentucky without a barrel as last years Old Forester Nicholas Barrel Reserve sold out in a week. We fielded calls of people trying to get more for 6 months. As a little bonus, this years barrel had a bit less lost to the “Angels” which gave us a few more bottles. What does that mean for you? Well, I pay a flat price for the barrel so more bottles means a cheaper cost per bottle that I’m passing along to you. This years Old Forester Nicholas Barrel Reserve is $39.75.
Tasting Notes:
Super smooth with a long lingering finish with no bite. Packed with caramel, roasted pineapple, vanilla with just a very small hint of fall spice. Bottled at 90 proof.

Rich and creamy notes of toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, and fresh baked Bundt cake immediately flood the sense’s as soon as you pop this one open. Bottled at 100-Proof, you get a little bit of heat on the front palate followed by rich oak, leather and freshly baked bread. As it starts to open, you get some sweeter, creamy vanilla notes that cream in as well as campfire s’mores and a dash of pepper. The finish is long, and a bit spicy which leaves a memorable aftertaste and leaves you wanting more.
Back in the day, Widow Jane used to be a staple at Nicholas Wines. But as its popular has gone crazy, it’s been tougher and tougher to get my hands on any. This is a hyper small batch bourbon that was aged for a minimum of thirteen years, non-chill filtered and proofed with Widow Jane’s signature limestone mineral water from the Rosendale Mines in New York. It’s a doozy of a bottle at 93 Proof and has notes of vanilla, nutmeg, graham cracker and sweet tobacco.
The juice here is so pure and elegant, it tastes much more like a $80/bottle of Tequila than one going for half the price, but that’s why I love these single barrel deals so much. The value is insane. This Reposado spent just under 12 months in used bourbon barrels. Golden brown with fresh agave, oak & vanilla. Remarkably smooth finish. This is one of those oddball tequila’s that is good enough to just sip on the rocks but cheap enough to use to make one hell of a margarita.

“This supple red shows a core of cherry and plum fruit allied to olive, juniper and tobacco notes. Delivers well-integrated tannins and acidic structure, lingering nicely on the finish.”
