Review: Frey Ranch Bourbon 10 Years Old (2026)
It’s easy to criticize “grain-to-glass” as a designation, but by any definition, Nevada’s Frey Ranch certainly qualifies. The family owned and operated company grows its own grains, then malts, mashes, distills, ages, and bottles all whiskeys on site. They even create their own “peat” via a home-built bioreactor, which accelerates the decay of farm-sourced organic… The post Review: Frey Ranch Bourbon 10 Years Old (2026) appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Silverthorn Reserve Blender’s Art Bourbon 10 Years Old and Single Barrel Rye 13 Years Old
Drew Thorn spent more than a decade helping build Sagamore Spirit from an ambitious startup into a nationally recognized whiskey brand. As the company’s CEO, he played a pivotal role in guiding its growth and establishing its place in the modern rye whiskey market. From the beginning, Sagamore Spirit’s identity was rooted in the blending… The post Review: Silverthorn Reserve Blender’s Art Bourbon 10 Years Old and Single Barrel Rye 13 Years Old appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Review: Bardstown Bourbon Co. Distillery Reserve Mars Single Malt Japanese Blend
Bardstown Bourbon Co. has proven to be one of the more consistent producers of creative, cutting-edge American whiskeys. Nowhere in their generous portfolio is that more evident than the limited-edition Distillery Reserve Series, a thrice annual showcase of some the distillery’s boldest creations available exclusively at their Kentucky outposts and to members of their whiskey… The post Review: Bardstown Bourbon Co.

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.

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: 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 .
