Blessings, dude! Buy a bottle of something and put it away until he reaches legal age. Also, invest $50 into a fund to purchase a bottle at his legal age. If "hard times" hit before his legal age, allow yourself to "steal" one or the other from him, but NOT BOTH!!!

Stranahan's used to have people volunteers to come in an fill bottles and they got to write in fun things on the bottle. I dont think they do that anymore. Mine says "Make Mine a Double" Batch 126 Edit: Correction, they do still do this program.

Crown Royal Bourbon Mash (forcibly renamed to Blender's Mash) is named that way because it's the high-corn component of Crown Royal. CR is a blend of five specific whiskies that are each distilled and aged separately to create different aspects of the final flavour profile, and Blender's Mash is one they decided to sell as its own bottling. Gooderham and Worts is the closest thing to Bourbon from the Hiram-Walker distillery that makes J.P. Wiser's. Good luck finding it in the US.

Here in Colorado you can find Blue Peak EVERYWHERE. It does not seem like it's gonna be a limited thing. Personally I prefer the regular yellow label, and vastly prefer Diamond Peak, but I truly don't think you can go wrong with Stranahan's

Did a tasting at Stranahan's a month ago while visiting a friend in CO, it was by far the best tasting experience I've had so far. Definitely check it out if you're in the area. The sherry finish and single cask bottles were my favorites.

Having watched these magnificent bastards for years, it's really something to note the growth of Rex's palette and notes. That said, I miss the days of constant distraction/chaos that the Mooch brought upon the vault.
@joe-e-geo3 жыл бұрын
Yes - it's a balance. Let's hope that Rex doesn't lose his moochiness all that much more. It's the tension of the relationship between Dan and Rex that makes these channels so special. Once Sam and Diane hooked up, "Cheers" had lost its appeal (jumped the shark). . May the love between Dan and Rex never be requited!

I was at the distillery a few years ago and their plan wasn’t to release a new line but to transition this method into diamond peak. Essentially it would be diamond peak just the extra step of solera at the end. It also happened to be a few days after Rob announced he was leaving to go work for Metallica so perhaps that had something to do with it.

Hey Rex and Daniel. I'm a brewer/brewery owner. I wonder if a lot of that "fruitiness" you're getting is often coming from the yeast used by the distiller and not the malts? There are many yeasts I use as a brewer that throw off lots of fruity "esters". In particular the British strains and the newly discovered Kveik strains from Norway. Just food for thought.
