The redwood empire kind of reminds me of a Sazarak with the tea taste but a little better imo
New distillery shop only in New Richmond Ohio. They are sourcing whiskey from Indian. Its six year old,they plan to have a sourced bourbon next year. The whiskey is named after Ulysses Grant seven releases for each battle Grant was in.Sourced whiskey?
I just finished my second bottle of Russels Reserve on Saturday. Very enjoyable.View attachment 182411Picked up these 3 today, never tried any of them before this evening but heard good things. The hype is real, I like Michters small batch a lot and not typicality a rye fan but the michters rye was good. The red wood empire was great at $32 as well! Not sure why I waited so long on the russels 10 year but it didn’t disappoint either.
This was a one and done for me. Not terrible but had to add water (ice didn’t tame it down) to make it somewhat palatable…. Well for me anyways…..View attachment 182308
This caught my eye, goina give it a try with a cigar this evening….
Another pour of AE tonight at the end of a very productive day with these cooler temperatures. Refurbished a WT bourbon barrel and cut up a few nice loads of firewood for our back patio fire pit. Time to swill and chill

I enjoyed the middle west a lot. Price point was a little higher than I thought it should have been though. Seems like it’s mid 50’s whenever I see it in Athens.My bourbon journey has not been going on long, so I am a real novice but I've tried at least 15 different bourbons that I could get locally, many of which I read about here and trusted you all had good taste. Not many losers so far, but I got a package in the mail today that I have been waiting anxiously for. I couldn't help myself and got the top off of the bottle as fast as I could for just a little taste. Blown away. When I get done with this, I'm going to go sit on the swing and enjoy a real pour. This might be the best bourbon I have had so far, and from a local distillery to boot. Came highly recommended from someone that is a real bourbon fanatic.
