If Larrikin Bourbon Company is unfamiliar to you, then you are in good campany. Prior to this week’s episode, we had never heard of this brand. Well, we thought we had never heard of them — but it turns out that we did. In 2022, Lawrenceburg Bourbon Company was founded, but after only a short about of time, the company rebranded to Larrikin. The distillery is proudly owned and operated by Greg Keeley who is a combat veteran with service in both Australian and U.S. navies. Greg’s story is as unique as the whiskeys that they offer. This week, we taste and review two different Larrikin bottles: (1) Single Barrel High Wheat Rye Aged 8 years (2) Decade Cognac Finished Rye Whiskey Aged 10 years. Two very unique products with great age statements from a start up brand. You’ll have to listen to hear our thoughts on these ones. Even though you are here for the whiskey talk, you’ll be treated to an expose on Kenny’s birthday week of bourbon!

For this Tuesday short, we decided to switch it up a bit and engaged with our extensive backlog of blinds. Our listener and friend (Evan) sent us a three blinds samples that were supposed to correspond with each of out palates. He also threw in an extra sample that was "just for fun." You'll have to listen to find out 1) which sample we liked the best 2) if we came anywhere close in our collectives guesses of age, proof, and distillate. These are some of our favorite episodes to record and we really appreciate how kind members of our audience like Evan put the time, thought, and effort in sending these to us. So join us this week as we test our palates once again. If you've sent us blinds and are still waiting, we promise that we will get to them soon!

You've heard us talk about a lot of whiskey over the years, but MGP has had a special place in our hearts. When a very generous listener gave us a sample of the brand new Redemption 18 year old bourbon whiskey, you knew we would have to get an episode out immediately. The factory in Indiana has produced some amazing whiskeys over the years. How does this one stack up? You'll have to listen to find out. We were incredibly enthused to taste this bourbon, but Kenny made sure we blinded it against some heavyweights to assess how good it was. Happy Derby weekend. Also, the man Kenneth is now 50 years young - respect!

Join us for this short as we taste some eclectic whiskey offerings and laugh our way through another action packed episode.

Maker's Mark wood finishing series is something that we've become very fond of over the past few years. Once a brand that focused on consistency, Maker's has branched out and really pushed the limits when it comes to special releases. This expansion of the product line has been a welcomed change for most bourbon enthusiasts who have demanded more out of Maker's. This week, we taste and review the newest release in the Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series: The Keepers Release. While Steven and Anthony are content to just taste this whiskey, Kenny puts it in a blind and the results will change everything you think you know about bourbon. We want to thank Mr. Hector for providing us with this bottle to review. We appreciate all of you for listening. Cheers.

In January of this year, Old Forester brought back the "extra old" 117 series offering. This is the second time this style of bourbon has released since the start of the 117 series. Essentially, this bourbon is similar to Old Forester 1910 which is one of our favorites. The key differentiating factor is the time the bourbon rests in a secondary toasted oak cask. 1910 is aged for 7-9 month and "extra old" is aged in the secondary cask for up to 18 months. The result? Give us a listen to find out.

Helllllloooo and Happy Friday! In this episode, we crack and review an almost 12 year old, 135 proof MGP rye whiskey which was selected by Minnesota Whiskey Elite and bottled by Subtle Spirits. Subtle Spirits is an newer NDP that is taking the community by storm. Inspired by art, Subtle Spirits strives to deliver unique experiences with whiskey. This was our first experience with the brand so you'll have to listen to what we think. Also, we want to extend a hearty thanks to Matthew E. for providing us with this bottle. We have the best listeners. We glad you are joining us for the whiskey talk, but this episode is loaded with laughs. Cheers, y'all!

This short episode focuses on a bourbon that burst onto the scene a little over a year ago and was dubbed as a "Stagg Killer." With that kind of characterization, we have to taste it. Smokeye Hill Barrel Proof Bourbon has been the darling of award contests and fans alike -- but is all the hype warranted? Maybe...you'll have to listen to find out. For the first time in Mash Up Podcast history, we have a special introduction from a celebrity chef. You're gonna want to listen to this episode and tell your friends about it.

For this Friday episode, we have two sets of blinds - one sponsored by a family member and the other sponsored by a listener. Our listener and friend (Charlie from Ohio) and Kenny's brother Shaun sent us a few blinds and definitely had some tricks up their sleeves. We have so much fun in these episodes and we hope that you enjoy them too. In addition to blinding, we also talk about the experience that we recently had at Wild Turkey for the reintroduction of the 8 year 101 bourbon. So join us this week as we test our palates with another sponsored double blind and share in some good laughter. Cheers.

Bardstown Bourbon Company did something extremely innovative when they decided to blend some premium ultra aged bourbon and then rest it in barrels made of 300 year old french oak (for 14 months!). The result? The taste? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out. In this episode, we will tell you what we think of this "first of it's kind" bottle and also let you know if this is worth chasing, especially at the high prices it commands on the enthusiast markets (that don't exist). Special thanks to our friend Jason from Arsenic Culture for providing this bottle and for joining us for this weeks short.

Jack Daniel's has put out some ultra premium in recent years. Just when you thought it couldn't get any more premium, they recently released a 14-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey clocking in at a massive 126.3 proof. You have to go all the way back to the early 1900s to find a release from Jack Daniel's that is this old. Many enthusiasts are dubbing this as an early favorite for whiskey of the year. But what do we think of it? You'll have to listen to find out. As always, there is spirited conversations, blinds, and a familiar female co-host. Thank you for listening and let us know what you think of the JD 14 year.

David Jennings aka Rare Bird 101 is back again! Talking turkey? Nope. This time around, David joins us to talk about his new whiskey company Washington Lafayette Revolutionary Spirits and the very first releases from the brand which are Caleb's Crossing Bourbon & Rye. These whiskeys will be exclusively available on Bourbonoutfitter.com on April 4th. But, what do they taste like? Perhaps more importantly, what is the story behind these bottles? Caleb's Crossing Bourbon is a blend of 6 and 7 year old straight whiskeys that is dual cask finished in Pineau des Charentes and Armagnac Casks and slow proofed to perfection. Caleb's Crossing Rye starts off as an 8 year 95/5 rye whiskey and is also finished in Pineau casks. Both of these whiskeys taste as unique as the story behind them. David takes the time to explain the painstaking process he went through to craft these whiskeys and delves further into the family story that made it all possible. While we have plenty of fun in this episode and talk a little Turkey and Raconteur, the majority of this fascinating conversation is focused on Caleb's Crossing and what David has in store for the future. We promise you will want to listen all the way to "the finish."

Just this week, we were invited to the Wild Turkey Distillery to partake in the reintroduction of the famed 101 proof bourbon with an 8 year age statement as a permanent offering in US market. Being part of this event meant that we got some face time with Bruce Russell who is a third generation whiskey maker with the brand. If you want to know what Wild Turkey 101 with an 8 year age statement means to Bruce and his family, you won't want to miss this episode. Wild Turkey 101 in this form is something we'd never thought we'd see again. Well...here it is...in it's purest form...as described by Bruce Russell.

The cats are taking the court this evening to take on Tennessee in the Sweet 16. As excited as we are about the prospects of the Cats making the Elite 8, we are equally as excited about the new bottle we have to review this week. Thirteenth Colony Distilleries recently released their 113 Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished With Maple Wood Spirals to much acclaim. Although Thirteenth Colony has been around for quite a long time, they’ve skyrocketed in popularity over the past few years due to their double oaked bourbon releases. So how does this new Maple Finished bourbon taste? You’’ll have to listen to find out and we guarantee you will be surprised with our take. This week we are joined by our good friend Jason Hale from Arsenic Culture for this tasting and conversational masterpiece. The bourbon conversation is great, but the talk about 1-900 numbers, March Madness, and parkas is even better.

Back in episode 84, we tasted and reviewed the 6 year old version of Smooth Ambler Founders' Cask Strength Bourbon. This was a brand new offering of their own distillate from a brand who built their reputation on MGP. Fast forward two years and that distillate has now turned 8 years old! For this weeks short, we revisit another batch of this bourbon which is now a little older and has a bit more proof. On the first go around, we game this a try, try, buy. What will the verdict be this time around...you'll have to listen to find out.

Penelope Bourbon started in 2018 and quickly ascended to a place only few brands could dream of. They built a cult following and had great distribution. After only a few years as a start up whiskey company, they sold to MGP for over 200 million. We've reviewed Penelope products before on the podcast, but we've never had the pleasure of reviewing anything from their coveted Estate Collection. Thanks to a dedicated listener, we had the opportunity. We taste and review this 9 year old private select Bourbon from Penelope and talk about betting apps as well as where our podcast has been and where it's going. Cheers to the weekend!

A whisky voted "worlds best rye" 3 years in a row was virtually unknown to us until Kenny's son started a new business venture. In a strange coincidence, the founding of his company lead to the discovery of this rye. Each batch of Millstone Dutch Single Rye Whisky is meticulously handcrafted using 100% rye mash and aged for a minimum of 100 months in new American oak casks. The distiller claims that the lengthy 11-day fermentation process provides a complexity of flavor that sets this whisky apart. Well, we'll be the judge of that. Join us for this short and we explore a rye whisky that takes us well outside of our comfort zones.

Mississippi bourbon and rye? Really? The answer is yes. For this week, a listener (Walker) was kind enough to send us two single barrel selections from the Crittenden Distillery in Kiln, Mississippi. With roots of the distillery dating all the back to 2016, you could imagine our surprise when we saw two 7 year cask strength products (bourbon and rye) that were distilled, aged, and bottled by this up and coming whiskey producer. in the midst of tasting. and reviewing this whiskey, Steven and Kenny got in a argument about friend chicken and much hilarity ensued. So join us this week if you want to laugh and find out about a small distillery in Mississippi that is putting out some great products. Cheers!

Woodford Reserve is one of the most iconic distilleries in the world. Despite the fact that they have an incredibly consistent set of products that are very popular, we've lamented that most of their whiskeys are 90.4 proof. Well...the newest release in the limited distillery series offerings is the highest proof whiskey that they've ever releaased! Clocking in at 139.4 proof, Woodford Reserve's Chocolate Whisper Redux comes in a 375ml bottle and costs $99.99. But how does it taste? And is it worth the hefty price tag that it carries? Often critical of Woodford products, our short review for this week might surprise you.

March Madness is upon us! A few episodes ago, we tasted and reviewed a bottle of the Club Blue small batch bourbon (Team White). Since that time, we visited Bespoken Spirits to learn more about the process and what goes into these NIL fundraising bourbons. In this episode, we taste and review a bottle of the Club Blue Team Blue Bourbon which is a high rye bourbon whiskey finished with ex-tequila and cherry wood staves. In order to eliminate all preconceived notions, we decided to fresh crack this bottle and blind it against an array of other different bourbons in order to give it the fairest shake possible. None of us had tasted this before blinding it. So what did we blind it against and what did we ultimately think about this more premium Club Blue bottle? You'll have to listen to find out. C'mon Cats!
