The beauty of that system is that you can snag these at MSRP. Generally, you’ll need to get these bottles through a ticketing system at the distillery.
It’s the finite and complete view of what they do at Four Roses in a single bottle. The whiskey is a one-off marriage of their best barrels from the ten mash bills (recipes) Four Roses uses to make all their expressions. Still, if you can find one, it’ll be worth getting at least a taste of some seriously well-crafted whiskey (just maybe at a little closer to MSRP than $3,000).įour Roses 2021 Limited Edition Small Batch Four Rosesįour Roses (Kirin Brewery) drops a Limited Edition Small Batch every year that really does hit a high watermark for the brand and bourbon in general. This is going to be another of those bottles that’ll be really hard to find given the very limited amount that actually goes out. Last year’s drop was their 18-year Marriage which was, well, a marriage of high-rye bourbons with a wheated bourbon (BT makes both Weller and Pappy on-site). Taylor release from Buffalo Trace (Sazerac) is always a defining bottle for the bespoke line. You can decide for yourself if it’s worth it (it is, at least once in a lifetime). Expect to pay at least double if you do happen upon a bottle. Unfortunately, you’re not going to find this bottle easily or anywhere near its MSRP. Two, the whiskey tends to be some of the best from Heaven Hill’s wide array of spirits. One, the bottles themselves are awesome and serve as a decanter long after the juice is gone. Old Fitzgerald Bottled in Bond Heaven HillĪh, Old Fitzgerald (Heaven Hill)… Their yearly Bottled-in-Bond releases have become some of the most sought-after drops throughout the year. Still, since it’s Wild Turkey, you should be able to find these for little to no mark up when they drop.
But the juice inside tends to be almost too drinkable, making these hard to keep on the shelf. These are often seen as showpiece bottles. Last year’s Bottled-in-Bond was a masterpiece in a bottle and really highlighted the beauty of Eddie Russell’s dep understanding of bourbon. The Master’s Keep line from Wild Turkey (Campari) is always a home run in a bottle. That being said, these batches will not vary wildly, but you should be able to find the nuance of the barrels in each. The beauty of these three releases is that you can test and compare the difference between each batch and find one that suits your palate.
Still, this is a multi-award winning bourbon that’s often called out as a very underrated bottle of booze to have on hand.
Whatever this year’s release holds, it’ll be an expertly crafted and unique bottle of bourbon worth giving a shot ( if you can find it).Įlijah Craig Barrel Proof A Batch, B Batch, and C Batch Heaven HillĮstimated Release: Winter, summer, and fall 2021Įlijah Craig Barrel Proof (Heaven Hill) is a damn fine bottle of bourbon that you can still get at a fairly affordable price (though it’s starting to reach above it’s MSRP in some places). Last year’s release was aged for seven years and then finished in Armagnac barrels (cognac’s French cousin). The juice tends to include special barrels with unique finishing casks in very small batches to highlight the prowess of Limestone Branch out in Lebanon, Kentucky. Limestone Branch Distillery (Luxco) drops this much-beloved bottle of bourbon every summer in very small quantities. Yellowstone 2021 Limited Edition Yellowstone
BIG RELEASE FOR NOVEMBER 11 2015 FULL
Two, we already tried this one and it’s a solid first entry for the new line (our full review of the line will be featured on Expression Session this year). One, Port cask finished bourbons are generally very delicious. Each of the bottles has its own special finishing cask: Port, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Chardonnay.Īmong these three releases, the Port Cask Finished expression has piqued our interest the most going into 2020 for two reasons. This expression is part of a new three-bottle roll out from Barton 1792 (Sazerac Company). Moore Bourbon Finished in Port Casks Thomas S Moore
