George Garvin Brown was born this day in 1846. In 1870, he created Old Forester, the first bottled bourbon. The Brown family continues to be one of the top producers of bourbon. Each year Brown-Forman releases a new batch of "Birthday Bourbon" to celebrate the its founder.

One of my favorite things to do with a new whiskey is to add a drop of water to see how it changes the smell and taste. How much are we changing it though? Time for some #WhiskeyMath here on #WhiSKY. 1/?

Some Wednesday #WhiskeyMath on converting 🥃 volume measurements! Wine, whiskey, and other spirits are sold with bottles marking their volumes in milliliters (mL). The most common size is 750 mL (or a “fifth”, referencing a fifth of a gallon). 1/?

How it feels to not like Weller 12 year sometimes

In 2020, I got drawn in lotteries to buy a William Larue Weller, Four Roses Limited Edition, and a Birthday Bourbon in about an 8-week span. I think I used up all my bourbon luck that year 😅

Best way to do a tasting is with friends! Glad I have a neighbor that does these with me. This tasting was all about Penelope - only two samples this time, but a good brand for sure! I’ll definitely consider more of their products after this.

Today’s #WhiskeyScience post is all about the COLOR of bourbon (and other whiskeys too, I guess 😉) Bourbon gets its color from the barrel during aging. But WHAT is it, exactly, that imparts that heavenly amber hue? 🥃 I was curious, so I went and dug for the answer. Time for a 🧵

Anyone got a good picture of bourbon being dumped out of the barrel, or someone filling a glass with a thief? I’m working on a thread and I’d rather use a good photo and attribute it than try to use AI or a stock photo somewhere.

The Kentucky Artisan Tasting Lounge was a total blast. Marshall and Alexis were so much fun to talk with! Marshall gave me some great insight to the “mad scientist” feel of distilling - I think I’m gonna have to go back soon to talk more with him. Definite recommend for bourbon trail trips!

Today’s #WhiskeyScience topic is a little bit of geology: how limestone can impact bourbon! 🧪🪨💧🥃 One of the things about Kentucky that led to good bourbon is the presence of good-tasting, clean groundwater. 1/?

This month’s tasting group was all about Wyoming Whiskey - I liked all three releases and would happily buy it!

With these two new filings w/ the TTB, it’s clear that bourbon stock ages are going up, up, up

Sounds intriguing! It’s tough for me to buy an unknown bottle at $70+ but backstories like this help a little. I really wish brands like this would do 375s more often as a way to encourage people to give their product a shot at a lower cost!

I don’t typically care for bourbon-flavored food, BUT this is delicious. Tastes like they just took good bourbon balls and mixed them into the ice cream! As the youths say, this slaps. Way to go, @graeters.bsky.social and @newriff.bsky.social #whiSky

Tried this barrel proof rye from Whiskey Thief and hooooooly cow is it an easy drinker. I’m considering going to their place in Louisville to get a bottle myself! #whiSky

I almost forgot: today being Earth Day reminded me of this interesting whiskey I came across: anyone heard of it? The label claims that this brand is in some way “carbon neutral.” I have questions. (1/5)

Another bottle down for the spring cleanout! This four-grain barrel strength from Penelope is really delightful. Sad to see it go!

One downside to spending so much time learning to describe flavors in whiskey is picking up weird notes in your food and drink that you can’t ignore Today’s casualty: My cold brew has a prominent note of celery root I can’t untaste it 😩

Hearing about this @graeters.bsky.social collab with @newriff.bsky.social and it sounds tasty! My only question: does it come in barrel proof? 😆
