I took several of my BKs to a bottle share last weekend, universally Batch 81 was considered the best pour of the night. We have OWA picks, EHT picks, Jacob's Well 211 month Hardin's and a number of other really great pours there. Everyone LOVED all the BK bottles, but 81 was universally the "how do I get a bottle of this?!" Keep up the amazing work!
Sending nothing but positive thoughts for the show and Batch 69 will shine. There is no doubt in the whiskey world the greatness coming out of Bourbon, Missouri. The BK family is kicking butt and taking names.
They didn’t air that particular taste off 😞 But it appears that Jett Brothers won the category. The Sauternes barrel they used was 2nd best Sauternes in the world. Thanks following up buddy!
The Ascots are some of the worst awards - the fact they accept single barrels is just stupid. Also small release single batch products are dumb to award - they simply aren't available to buy. We aren't even half way through 2024 either... so you really can't name a best whiskey of 2024 yet - traditionally the best stuff comes out in the second half of the year (and yes I know they use a rolling calendar instead of a strict calendar - I'm just calling out the misnomer)
