My introduction to WhistlePig was about a year ago with their 10 year-old whiskey and I searched high and low to get that one bottle. It took me a while to find a bottle because the product was extremely popular, but the search was definitely well worth it. To this day, I have a bottle…

Triple Smoke – Corsair Distillery
What does the way you walk say about you? To be honest, I have no idea what my walk says about me, but if a study was done on the way the three guys on the Triple Smoke bottle walked, I bet it would say that those guys are pretty cool dudes. I’ll be honest;…
Sons of Liberty Distillery
For being a small state, Rhode Island certainly has a lot going for themselves and that includes the Sons of Liberty Distillery. I had not heard about this place until my boyfriend mentioned it last week, so on Labor Day Weekend we headed down for a tour and sampling of their product. The distillery has…
Pappy Meal – Old Rip Van Winkle 10 year
I felt like a kid in a candy store when I first walked into Citizen Public House for their Pappy Meal Monday. It is moments like these that remind me of one of the reasons why I started this blog, and that was to have fun. You better believe that I had fun with this…
Eagle Rare 17 year Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
A week ago we found ourselves again, sitting on a bar stool at the Last Hurrah when we realized that we had always just gone there for their single malt list and never their bourbon. We asked Frank if he had any good bourbons and he laughed at us. He then came back with a…
Elijah Craig 21 year-old
The minute the bartender said she had 21 year-old bourbon I was sold. I don’t have bourbon this old often, so I had to have it. This was my first introduction to the 21 year-old Elijah Craig and I was certainly happy to make its acquaintance. Since having a dram I have learned that this…
Wild Turkey Spiced Bourbon
This upcoming Memorial Day weekend marks the last day of spring turkey hunting season. Now I am assuming that you wouldn’t know that unless you are hunter and no, I am not a hunter. I only know this because my boyfriend sent me a text message saying that it was fitting we drank Wild Turkey…
McCarthy’s Oregon Single Malt Whiskey
Naturally, being a huge single malt fan, when the Sweet Cheeks Q bartender said she had a really good single malt whiskey from Oregon, I laughed. Although on my list of states to visit, I have never been to Oregon before and didn’t think single malt whiskeys was something they’d be good at. One of…
Hudson Whiskey – Manhattan Rye
Since prohibition, Hudson Whiskey is the first whiskey distillery to open its doors in New York. Although Tuthilltown Gristmill was initially purchased in 2001 to serve as a rock climber’s ranch it was whiskey that later came out of there a few years later. One of the first things that captured me about Hudson Whiskey…
Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Whiskey
Happy first day of spring! Lucky for us, it supposed to hit mid-50 today. Yes I am extremely happy about that, this Caribbean born gal is definitely looking forward to some nicer warm weather. The thought of warm weather makes me smile as much as the thought of an Angel’s Share when it comes to…
Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel Bourbon
I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t mind if one day a whisky or bourbon was name after me. Maybe I will work on making sure that happens in the future but in the meantime I’ll talk about a bourbon named after a person who helped shape the Buffalo Trace Distillery, Elmer T. Lee….
Wasmund’s Single Malt Whisky
If you’ve read my posts before then you’ll know that I’ve said, the difference between whisky and whiskey is really the spelling and the word itself denotes the place where the whisky or whiskey comes from. The United States and Ireland are the only two countries that label their whiskey with an “e”. All other…
