We're a week into life with #3 and I haven't had free enough hands in the evening to pour a glass of bourbon


I've got four and three was a big adjustment for sure. Four was easier than three for us. I mean there is still new born stuff that is tough but my wife loves that phase. I don't.

For those unfamiliar with 1792 Full Proof and newer to the bourbon world. Some good notes on the bottle and tasting notes. Really looking forward to this one!

Their cask strength is very good and one of the few Texas whiskeys I like, but I don't need it that bad.

Setting aside the tsip sponsorship, I haven't had a bad bottle from them. The gin is even good.

I just started getting into rye recently, so I haven't had many of their rye offerings yet. I did grab their Spring BiB Straight Rye recently and it's fantastic so I will definitely be grabbing the Ruby Red Rye. I'm looking forward to comparing it to MWND.

Their cask strength rye is really good. They do 100% rye as opposed to the typical 95/5 recipe and I tend to get more fruity flavors off of it. I'll try and grab one of these since I'll be there the following week anyway.

I just opened some Jack BiB I got on a cruise a while back. Holy smokes, it's solid for $30.

That whole series was. The high rye from the fall was my favorite. Blue Corn close behind.

I still haven't had the regular rye or cask strength but have heard nothing but good things about them. Especially the cask strength.

I had some of their rye white dog on a tour there a year or two before they started releasing any rye products. It was good enough un-aged that my buddy and I that tasted it were fairly excited to hear when it finally came to market.

I've had some Rio Brazos store picks that were pretty decent, but it's been a few years since I've sampled any.

Well first of all they would have to be making bourbon and not vodka.

Ha!

My point is, I pass the Texas bourbon stuff all the time in the bourbon aisle. I look at the "corps of cadet" bottle or the "train car" bottle and it's all 2 years or less and just looks gross

Be patient on the Hush & Whisper stuff. Their oldest stuff is only 9 months old, but the white whiskey they're serving right now has a ton of promise. I was really impressed.

Looks like there are three distilleries in the Brazos Valley. I've only ever seen the Bonfire Bourbon on the shelves but never bought it.

2 years is long enough in Texas to produce something drinkable, if they do it right. Have any of them been around long enough to have a decently aged product?

If any of them make an ASM ill buy it. Can't be any worse than the bottle from an Oklahoma company i bought that is literally worse than drain cleaner.
