One of the perks of covering this industry is the opportunity to taste unique, and sometimes rare, whiskey samples. These 3 samples are the individual whiskey components that make up Beam Suntory Legent Bourbon. Beam 5 year bourbon, "Wine cask component", and "Sherry cask component". All presented at cask strength. My first question after tasting these was, "Can you PLEASE bottle the Sherry cask finished bourbon?!".

A pair of delicious bottles I wish I still had. These 10 year Old Scout single barrels were chosen by the Bourbon Women organization. Bottled with the labels "Autumn" and "Spring" these were two very different bourbons equally amazing in their own ways. Available for a short time at Binny's these $60 bottles quickly gained cult status and rocketed into the hundreds. I drank these two down to the last drop.

Four Roses 2014 Limited Edition Single Barrel. "Year of the Toast". A very special release enjoyed at a very special bar.
.
“This year’s Limited Edition Single Barrel is a tribute to the loyal following we are so fortunate to have,” said Rutledge. “This bourbon went into the barrel and was put away at a time when Four Roses had just returned to the states and it’s remarkable to see how far we’ve come as a company since then.”
.
The Limited Edition Single Barrel bottle pays tribute to Four Roses’ loyal fans by including a toast submitted during the Year of the Toast campaign that celebrated Four Roses 125th anniversary. The campaign encouraged consumers to submit their favorite toasts via email and social media, with one toast selected to appear on this year’s Limited Edition Single Barrel bottle. After reviewing hundreds of submissions, Four Roses executives chose the toast from Frank Wheatley of Louisville, Kentucky.: “If I could age like bourbon, I wouldn’t mind getting old.”"

I definitely had bourbon at my wedding. A fair amount of bourbon....and barrels. Four Roses seemed like a good choice for the occasion. Do you have a memory of a special bottle you enjoyed on a memorable occasion?

Galena Illinois has long been a weekend getaway destination. With it's winding main street full of shops and restaurants to it's secluded hills and beautiful homes to rent. Over the past 7 years a pair of brothers have made their mark on this landscape. Adding to the Galena experience a top-tier distillery producing delicious bourbon, whiskey, gin, vodka and other spirits. Blaum Brothers Distilling Co offers tours and tastings to both the discerning palate and whiskey-curious alike. It has become a reason to plan a trip to Galena in itself.
