Tasting Notes – Wyatt Earp 13-Year American Single Malt (Hazmat)
This is the first time I have reviewed a product from the World Whiskey Society, a relatively well-known bottler of self-proclaimed “ultra-premium” spirits, who is also known for its elaborate packaging and high price points. This particular bottle certainly cannot compete with some of the other WWS releases in terms of overall presentation and if … Continue reading Tasting Notes – Wyatt Earp 13-Year American Single Malt (Hazmat) The post Tasting Notes – Wyatt Earp 13-Year American Single Malt (Hazmat) appeared first on The Capital City Bourbon Blog .

Tasting Notes: Old Grand-Dad 16 Year
One of my many goals for the new year, which confusingly also includes completing a “dry January” is to go back to my roots and start reviewing whiskey more regularly. We are also gearing up several great interviews on the podcast, but more on that later… To kick off the new year on a high … Continue reading Tasting Notes: Old Grand-Dad 16 Year The post Tasting Notes: Old Grand-Dad 16 Year appeared first on The Capital City Bourbon Blog .

MSL Monthly Picks – October 2023
Well, I think its fair to say that Jon and I have been slacking just a little bit. We’ve missed, well, four months of monthly picks, but I assure you it is not because we haven’t been drinking whiskey. Quite the opposite, actually!

Well folks, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, so now we can look forward to six more weeks of winter!
