Four Roses Single Barrel Collection, 2026
I’d like to thank Four Roses and their PR team for providing this review sample with no strings attached In 1995, Four Roses launched Four Roses Single Barrel, OBSV, to much rejoicing from the masses (actually, as I was a freshman in college at the time, I have no idea if there was much rejoicing or just a collective shrug from the masses, but stick with me here). After 20 years of whining and complaining from people like me, they finally started to let us taste the other nine bourbons that they make, in single barrel form, by releasing the first installment of the Four Roses Single Barrel Collection . Now, these bourbons had been available as Private Barrel Picks for a long time, but those were at a higher proof and a higher price. But until last year, they had never sold them in a package that was accessible to the average Joe or Jane—one unwilling to spend high prices and go on unicorn hunts to the stores that carried the ones they were looking for. Enter the Four Roses Single Barre

Larceny Barrel Proof B524 Scoresheet & Review
The last time I had Larceny was with the Barrel Proof Batch C922. If we look at the number of individual SKUs, then Heaven Hill’s preferred outlet for their wheated bourbon recipe is clearly Old Fitzgerald. Meanwhile, Larceny only sees attention in the form of the standard 92 proof bottle, three annual barrel proof batches, […]

King’s County Distillery, Brooklyn, NYC
Just across the Brooklyn Bridge in a former Navy Yard is a small craft distillery called King’s County, the first in NYC since prohibition. We visited in 2018, so given its history has now doubled since then, i’m sure some things have changed, but i’m sure it’s still worth a visit. The founders were Kentucky … The post King’s County Distillery, Brooklyn, NYC appeared first on Toronto Whisky Society .

Redemption Bourbon (2026 Revamp)
I’d like to thank the folks at Deutsch Family Wine & Spirits and their PR partners for providing this sample with no strings attached. Do you remember a couple of weeks ago when we were doing the BourbonGuy Brackets? I had one matchup where I said both of the competitors were “products in transition.” Well, shortly after I published the results of the bracket competition, I got an email from the producers of one of those products, completely coincidentally. They were announcing the new bottle and proof of Redemption Bourbon—an announcement that I had apparently scooped by looking at their website. I immediately asked for a sample to be sent to me. I was very interested to give the proof bump a thorough look. When it arrived, I noticed that it also had a higher stated age than previously, having gone from a 2-year-old at 88 proof to a 3-year-old at 92 proof. All good things, especially since it is still distilled in Indiana (assuming MGP) and there is some fantastic bourbon coming out o
