Good call Phil when you stated this whiskey is a “thinker”you want to share everyone’s thoughts. Well played! I agree with Julie on your ‘A’ grading this episode. 🥃
For every good tasting day, there are many terrible tasting days, haha. Phil's Dad happened to stop by their new tasting room in Valpo and purchased a bottle of this same whiskey (different batch) just last week. And a friend of ours is playing there tonight with his band. Odd timing all around!
This sounded so so interesting and wild flavor notes and I was bummed that it was likely a bottle I might not have but I do! Can’t wait to crack mine and see what notes I get !
I’m a journeyman fan. Just returned from the distillery in Three Oaks, MI) yesterday (2.5 drive one way, although lunch was fab). I’m a fan of their Corsets, Whips, and Whiskey (I have an early batch #35, they are up to #76 now). Specifically drove there for their experimental malted rye (their own farm). Its outstanding. While I was there, I picked up Batch #1 of Corsets, Whips and Whiskey Beer Barrel Finished. Looking forward to trying that one. They are making a mark with their new facility in Valparaiso, IN as well.
"Not gonna say that I love this whiskey, I think I would love to share this whiskey." Yeah, I don't like it either. Can't wait to share my bottle away. 😂
I have a standard bottle and a store pick and I just can’t understand the love it gets. Mine are stuffed away in the basement because I haven’t been able to force myself to kill the bottles. So, I’m with you.
