A lot has changed in the last 5 years ( you can file that statement under the “understatement of the year”.) It feels like yesterday that Phil Brandon from Rock Town distillery offered me my own barrel of bourbon. I thought I would be pouring this barrel off for years on our cocktail list. How was I supposed to know it wouldn’t last a week?
It was our very first barrel of bourbon & here we are 5 years later & about 100 barrels selected & sold & I’m finally getting my second barrel from Rock Town. Phil makes his bourbon with a mash bill of corn & barley instead of the usual corn & rye. This makes it more chocolately than spicy and a straight knocked out bottle of bourbon. Unfortunately, Rock Town barrels are smaller than most, which leaves us with only 80 bottles to sell. Better not wait too long!
61% corn
30% unmalted barley
9% malted barley
Aged 34 months
114 proof
The barley here gives it the sweeter chocolatey tones as opposed to rye that gives it is spicier ones. Layer upon layer of dark & bitter chocolate with Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee undertones. Has just the right amount of burn but would guess a proof closer to 105 instead of the 114 that it actually it’s.
Each bottle is bottles by hand a dipped in wax ala Blantons. Phil had Bruce blasting in the bottling room while this barrel was bottled. He sent me the video to prove it. Apparently he thinks everyone in Jersey listens to Springsteen all day. Ah, he’s partially right.

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.
This is definitely one of the most unique private barrels of bourbon you’re gonna find anywhere and it comes from our friends at in Kirby at Wyoming Whiskey. It’s been two years since we’ve had this baby! They make their own whiskey in-house instead of getting it shipped to them and finishing it. In doing so, they use winter wheat to churn out a medium length whiskey with notes of honey, burnt sugar, cinnamon and caramel on the finish. It’s sensational – but I only have 120 bottles from this barrel to offer up.
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!
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.
