WanderFolk Distillery’s goal with Tallbird American Whiskey was to bring back Bourbon’s Golden Age, when #whiskey was affordable and drinkable instead of something you kept on a shelf. Please check out my review. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/10/tall...

Did you have “Venison Flavored #Whiskey” on your bingo card? Tamworth Distilling is known for its unusual concoctions and the The Deer Slayer fits the bill. Please check out my review to learn all about it. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/10/the-...

Four Roses Distillery has released the 2nd installment of its Experimental Series. It is a Honey Cask Finish #Bourbon that spent time in former honey barrels that previously held Four Roses Bourbon! Check out my review to see how it turned out. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/10/four...

On Wednesday, I received my flu vaccination. Today, I had my COVID "jab." I can already feel the 5G energy coursing through my body. When I blink, the TV changes channels. For whatever reason, I can now have in-depth conversations with my dog.

It is always fun to see my name in a #whiskey ad. In this case, I wrote that review back in 2018, and Copperworks Distilling is still using it today.

A couple of years ago, I was very impressed with Root Shoot Spirits inaugural #whiskey. They’re back with some limited editions: a 6-Year American Single Malt and a 4-Year Palisade Peach Finished one, too. Please check out my review. reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/09/revi...

For the last few years, cigar blend #whiskeys have been all the rage. But what if a renowned cigar maker + a distiller collaborated from the start? That’s what Penelope did with Cigar Sessions: Chapter 2. My review details how that turned out. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/09/pene...

Cherry is a note commonly found in #Bourbon. What does finishing Bourbon in wild cherry wood casks do? Blue Note answers with its cask-strength, unfiltered Cherry Wood Finish Bourbon! Read my review at Whiskeyfellow.net to learn more. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/09/blue...

Some brands finish their #cigar blends in Armagnac, Cognac, Rum, or Sherry casks. Shortbarrel just released its Cigar Batch #4 American #Whiskey, featuring 50+ cask finishes! You’ve got to try it, and my review at Whiskeyfellow.net explains why. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/09/shor...

Unfortunately, that caused Michelle to get a blood clot that ran her entire leg; she dealt with that for a year. A handful of years later, she developed CRPS in that leg.

As we were leaving the B&B we were staying at, Michelle was wearing heels, twisted her ankle on the staircase, and broke it. Then, her grandmother had a heart attack, and Michelle’s dad decided to move her to a senior apartment. We flew out to Wisconsin to help pack up her house.

If you could travel back in time to any specific date, when would you choose, and why? For me, the answer is easy. I would choose September 28, 2003. That’s Michelle’s and my first wedding anniversary. We got dressed up to go out to a nice restaurant near Grand Junction, Colorado.

To my fellow Americans, today is a somber one. I invite you to reflect and understand that we are a nation of many faiths. Our Founding Fathers recognized that and enshrined the right in our Constitution that EVERYONE is free to practice theirs, and no single religion supercedes another.

To my Muslim friends: I do not blame you for 9/11 and I have no hatred for you. I am smart enough to understand that radicalized religious nutcases do not represent an entire people. To my Jewish friends and family, שנה טובה ומתוקה

Today is 9/11 and I know exactly what I was doing and where I was when the planes hit the towers. That's burned into my memory. Tonight is the start of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year. It is an interesting coincidence because it forces me to reflect upon something significant.

Espolòn #Tequila Añejo targets Bourbon drinkers, but it isn’t cosplaying. It was aged in new, charred oak & finished in former Wild Turkey barrels. How’d that turn out? Please read my review at Whiskeyfellow.net or the link in my profile. Cheers! reviews.whiskeyfellow.net/2026/09/revi...

Today is September 1st, the start of Bourbon Heritage Month. It is the first time in literally a dozen years that I've not hosted my annual #30DaysofBourbon challenge. My heart just isn't in it. That's not to say I'm finding Bourbon boring; I just have too many big life stressors [ctd]
