E055 - Belle Meade Reserve Bourbon Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery unknowingly created their own version of a March Madness back in 2020 when they released their annual Belle Meade Honey Bourbon and over 1000 people showed up for a chance to get a bottle. While we weren’t lucky enough to get our hands on that release, we were able to secure this bottle of Belle Meade Reserve Bourbon. How does this bottle stack up to other MGP sourced bourbon? There are rumors that this bottle will soon become a distillery only release, but is it worthy of that distinction? Give us a listen to this weeks as we discuss youth sports, unexpected pours and Michael the coach.

Show notes

We have a special edition for our listeners this week. The Mash Up had the opportunity to sit down with The Old Carter Whiskey Company; Mark and Sherri Carter and Jay Matthews. The Carter’s grabbed several bottles, we all sat down around a barrel head and they shared their story. This week we open a bottle of Old Carter Straight American Whiskey Batch 3. How do The Carter’s create their bourbon masterpieces? Are pick bottles coming to market? Accompanying our conversation is our Old Carter visit, bourbon hide and seek and buying bourbon in disguise.

E053 - Penelope Four Grain Barrel Strength Bourbon Feb 18, 2022

Show notes

Even though this bourbon has a beautiful amber color, it’s exterior may trick you. If you glance too quickly you may think it’s a rosé wine. This week we open a bottle of Penelope Four Grain Barrel Strength Bourbon. Do the subliminal messages from this bottle play with our perceptions? Does this sweet sounding bourbon pack a punch? Aiding in the discussion are bourbon lines, girls night in and that bourbon guy.

E051 - Benchmark Full Proof Bourbon Feb 04, 2022

Show notes

With the introduction of the new Benchmark vertical series, it has quickly becoming a sought after item for those who like to collect. However, what if you did not want to purchase them all. This week we open a bottle of Benchmark Full Proof Bourbon. Is this young 125 proof bourbon too hot to drink neat? Does it’s taste profile make it a desirable “daily drinker”? The fellas also talk about country music love relationships, security software bourbon and Michael has another nosing note.

E046 - Henry McKenna Bottled-in-Bond 10 Year Bourbon Dec 17, 2021

Show notes

Title defender? This bottle of bourbon was awarded the gold medal for “Best in Show Whiskey” just a few years ago. This week we open a bottle of Henry MeKenna Bottled-in-Bond (BiB) 10 Year Bourbon. Can this 2021 bottle proudly walk-the-walk and talk-the-talk with it’s own heritage? Why does this bottle have such a wide ranging MSRP? Helping to hold up this title belt are identical mash bills, quality control issues and one broken sniffer.
