Review: Koopers Father’s Office Bourbon and Sweetheart of the Rodeo Bourbon (2026)
Texas-based Kooper Family Distilling recently rebranded, dropping the Family and simplifying to Koopers (no apostrophe). Sorry, fam! Labels have been revamped across the board, with Koopers branding much more prominent and consistent across the lineup. The brand is also ramping up production with all manner of special releases, one of which we look at below… The post Review: Koopers Father’s Office Bourbon and Sweetheart of the Rodeo Bourbon (2026) appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Fettercairn 12 Years Old and 16 Years Old
For 200 years, Fettercairn’s Highland single malts never officially graced American shores, at least via branded releases. In 2025, the brand introduced part of its core range to the U.S., with limited distribution on 24, 28, and 40 year old single malts. Now, the Whyte & Mackay-operated distillery is rolling out its 12 and 16… The post Review: Fettercairn 12 Years Old and 16 Years Old appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Ardbeg Dolce
This year’s release for Ardbeg Day — marked on the final day of Islay’s Feis Ile celebration — features one of the distillery’s most evocative — and successful — aging regimens. That regimen is Marsala dolce, the sweetest style of Sicilian Marsala wine, which spans secco (dry), semisecco (semi-dry), and the sweet dolce, which is… The post Review: Ardbeg Dolce appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Michter’s US-1 Barrel Strength Sour Mash Whiskey 2026
Michter’s launched its first barrel strength product, Barrel Strength Rye, in 2015 and followed it up not long after with a barrel strength offering of their core US-1 Bourbon. While both Barrel Strength expressions have reappeared over the years (the rye more frequently than the bourbon), Michter’s Toasted series has been the more consistent, non… The post Review: Michter’s US-1 Barrel Strength Sour Mash Whiskey 2026 appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Gambit No. 6 Bourbon
Chip Tate, the mastermind behind Balcones whiskey and now a sort of whiskey ronin, just arrived with his latest project, Gambit No. 6. Why number 6? Not because there are five gambits before it, but because it’s a 6 year old Kentucky bourbon that features 6 different finishes: in wine (Sonoma chardonnay and Sonoma cabernet… The post Review: Gambit No. 6 Bourbon appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Russell’s Reserve Bourbon 13 Years Old (Updated 2026)
Wild Turkey’s Russell’s Reserve brand tends to fly under the radar a bit, but ignoring this latest release would be a mistake. It might be the best bottling ever to come out under the label. You’re getting a 13 year old cask-strength bourbon, available for a limited time. Here’s a bit of the story behind… The post Review: Russell’s Reserve Bourbon 13 Years Old (Updated 2026) appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Blue Note Wheated Bourbon
Memphis-based Blue Note recently added a small batch wheated bourbon to their growing lineup of contract-distilled whiskeys, all of which age in a uniquely humid Tennessee climate near the intersection of the Wolf and Mississippi rivers. The mashbill of 70% corn, 21% soft winter wheat, and 9% malted barley will be familiar to fans of… The post Review: Blue Note Wheated Bourbon appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Oaklore Story Series 2026 – Old Fashioned and Port Cask Finished Bourbon
A bourbon’s story doesn’t necessarily end when it leaves its original barrel. Increasingly, distillers are turning to secondary maturation to add another chapter, one that can reshape the whiskey beneath it. That idea sits at the heart of Oaklore’s Story Series. Built around the belief that every barrel has a story worth telling, Oaklore Distilling… The post Review: Oaklore Story Series 2026 – Old Fashioned and Port Cask Finished Bourbon appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: TX Whiskey Experimental Series Straight Rye Whiskey Full Proof
Out of Fort Worth comes another experimental release from TX Whiskey, the 16th total in their series, and the second so far this year.

Review: Heaven Hill Deatsville Bourbon 13 Years Old
Heaven Hill‘s Deatsville campus is on the verge of being decommissioned, so if you want the chance to taste whiskey from these rickhouses — and only from these rickhouses — you better act fast. This 13 year old offering is drawn from “one of the most distinctive aging sites in the distillery’s 90-year history.” It’s… The post Review: Heaven Hill Deatsville Bourbon 13 Years Old appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Talisker Magma 47 Years Old
The use of barrels toasted with hot volcanic rocks are, believe it or not, not a new idea, as Dewar’s dropped a magma-toasted barrel bottling last year. That’s not going to dull our enthusiasm for this release from Talisker, though, which at 47 years of age is the oldest distillery release to date and one… The post Review: Talisker Magma 47 Years Old appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Wild Turkey Austin Nichols Archives Collection Gold Foil Edition
Bourbon nerds love to wax poetic about a specific release of Wild Turkey from the 1980s and ’90s, affectionately called “Cheesy Gold Foil” because of its gaudy gold label, one which was clearly trying much too hard for an otherwise straightforward 12 year old release. (That said, Eddie Russell has reportedly stated that the release… The post Review: Wild Turkey Austin Nichols Archives Collection Gold Foil Edition appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Royal Ranthambore Indian Whisky

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 .

Review: New Riff Duet American Whiskey
Northern Kentucky’s New Riff isn’t afraid to experiment with grain varieties, blends, and mash bills. An adventurous release calendar has certainly paid off, and in recent years, the distillery has been on a tear with excellent single malts and other age-stated whiskeys. New Riff’s collaborations with other companies have also spanned several categories.
