Whether you’re a seasoned cigar aficionado or a high-proof bourbon hunter, this week’s "Wednesday Small Pours" is one you can't miss! 🥃
Join Wayne and Rebecca from Your Bourbon Journey as they dive into two powerhouse expressions from Shortbarrel Bourbon. First up is the complex Cigar Batch (Gauge 36), a masterfully blended bourbon finished in four distinct casks—Armagnac, Cognac, Rum, and Tawny Port. Is it the ultimate pairing for your favorite full-bodied cigar?
Then, things get intense with a Watch Hill Proper Single Barrel clocking in at a massive 134 proof. We’re breaking down the legs, the "pops of pepper," and that surprising minty finish. Plus, find out which bottle we’d actually "pull the trigger on" for our own collection!
Special thanks to Michael and Dawn from Chasing Neat for the bottle exchange at Bourbon Con!
