This is My Bourbon Podcast

Send us Fan Mail Mutant's away, so I'm calling in ol' Papa Ritter to join me for a fun flight of the Whiskey Row bottles from our friends at Old Forester to see how each product stacks up against each other! Oddly enough, there are some massive surprises here, and we have a great time doing it. Plus, I blind him with a bottle that has one of the more unique origins I've ever fo...

Send us Fan Mail Maker's Mark is almost synonymous with bourbon these days, enjoying six decades of prominence in the market both domestically and worldwide. But, has anyone ever taken the time to stop and ask themselves, "How should I be drinking this classic wheated Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky?" Well, we here at This is my Bourbon Podcast are doing just that on this week&apos...

Send us Fan Mail We're taking a break from the interviews this week to catch up on a couple of reviews, even though we're still checking in with some products sent to us by our friends from last week's episode! Crossroads Bourbon and Special Reserve Bourbon, both from Blue Note, are two well-refined and finely crafted products that satisfy consumers on both ends of the their wallet,...

Send us Fan Mail Somehow, in all this time, we've never featured the fine folks at Bluenote Bourbon on This is my Bourbon Podcast and their innovative practices in crafting bourbon. That all changes this week, as Perry and Eric interview President Logan Welk and VP os Sales Chris Crosbie, two of the most instrumental players in shaping how the brand operates in the greater bourbon market and...

Send us Fan Mail To say that Joe Beatrice is seasoned would be doing the veteran spirits industrialist a disservice. His brand of blended beverages has always delivered drinkers with a diverse array of offerings sure to both please and surprise those who are not willing to limit themselves to their Jack & Cokes or Miller Lites. Should you be choose to accept the mission of adventure into exoti...

Send us Fan Mail It's been a while since we've taken an episode to review and reflect upon some recent releases from our friends at Barrell Craft Spirits, and this week, in preparation for an interview with their founder, Joe Beatrice, we wanted to do just that! Their Foundation Double Barrel Bourbon, Ice Wine finished whiskey, and annual New Year's releases have all cemented themse...

Send us Fan Mail We're welcoming a new friend and new(ish) brand to the podcast this week, as the world's youngest Master Blender and one of the founders of The Bond Bourbon, Logan Bechanan, joins us to discuss his journey through the world of the industry. Did you think we were gonna let him off with just an interview, though? Absolutely not! Logan's in for the WHOLE episode, y&apo...

Send us Fan Mail We're in very turbulent times in the bourbon world, folks, and it only makes sense that every now and then, we step back and examine what's working and what isn't. While Eric is out sick, I figured I would bring our dear friend Chad from the wonderful  @ItsBourbonNight in to chat about where he thinks we're headed and how we could best reach each other from her...

Send us Fan Mail We're coming back around for another episode of This is my Bourbon Podcast, as we review and enjoy the likes of the newest edition of the Heaven Hill Heritage Collection, which features a 19 year old wheat whiskey at 90 proof and one of the most beautiful boxes you've EVER seen! PLUS we've got the Peregrine 2024 Canadian Whiskey release from our friends at Found Nor...

Send us Fan Mail This episode was one that took massive amounts of effort to produce, y'all, so we sincerely hope you enjoy us reviewing the newest expression from our friends at Garrard Co. Distilling Company, as well as the first edition of True Story Finished Bourbon! We're all over the place and having a great time doing it. It can't be beat. Enjoy. Become a patron of the show a...

Send us Fan Mail It's been a truly busy week, y'all, and we're so happy you're here for another episode of TIMBP!

It's true! We'...

Send us Fan Mail January is in full swing, folks, and we're not stopping even for a second! That's right, we're rolling right along with a big review of two of the three new bourbons from the Four Roses Single Barrel Collection (we couldn't find the third one...our bad) and comparing it to the original OBSV release. Plus, we're just here having a great time. Because that&a...

Send us Fan Mail We're back in full swing for 2025, folks, albeit in our own respective homes, as we were expecting some heavy snow that never truly materialized at time of recording. HOWEVER, that didn't stop us from bringing you an exceptional review of the newest batch of Rare Character Limited Release Bourbon (that's number 3 for those counting) and a brief discussion on the new...

Send us Fan Mail Back in May of 2024, we had the incredible pleasure of welcoming our friend Kenny Coleman of Bourbon Pursuit fame to Lexington, Kentucky to celebrate all things This is my Bourbon Podcast with us and to chat with some of our friends in the industry. From Bardstown Bourbon Company to RD1 Spirits to Dark Arts (and even Pursuit United), we've got some great conversation and chat...

Send us Fan Mail It's that time of year again, folks! We've tasted and poured and revisited everything we can one by one and whittled things down to our top 10 favorite whiskeys we tried this year, specifically bourbons and ryes. But, are you ready for what made our number one spot(s)? Only time will tell! Thanks for all the support this year, TIMBP Fam, and we hope you enjoy everything...

Send us Fan Mail We're winding down on 2024, folks, and this may be our last review before we get to that coveted "Best Of" episode we all look forward to! In the mean time, our friends at the University of Kentucky asked us to check out their NIL Club Blue bourbons to let you know how good they are and give our tasting notes so that you knew what you should expect when you pick up...

Send us Fan Mail It's the holiday season, folks, and we're excited to be reviewing the newest bourbon from the James B Beam family, Winter Reserve, which is...something, isn't it? Plus, we take the time to check out the annual edition of one of Perry's favorite beers, the Bourbon County Stout from our friends at Goose Island, and it's time to really get down to brass tacks...

Send us Fan Mail We're taking a break from a major review this week to take a look at one of our favorite rye whiskeys and ask the age old question, "what's the best way to drink it?" Perry and Eric put Old Forester Rye through the paces of neat, a splash of water, on the rock(s), and in cola to determine just how you should be drinking your daily, affordable drinker. Plus, the...

Send us Fan Mail It's no secret that we, and the bourbon community at large, are massive fans of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. It's not often that we're able to taste expressions from the fabled series, but this year, Perry and Eric were lucky enough to taste not one, but TWO bourbons included in the lineup. Perhaps the two most coveted in BTAC, William Larue Weller and Geor...

Send us Fan Mail This is my Bourbon Podcast is very proud to be bringing you two more exciting reviews this week, from neighboring states with two different philosophies on what is or isn't bourbon. But, are they any good? Perry and Eric find out! Plus, they have Flying Blind, an interesting Tips 'n' Bits, and one great episode that's simply some of the best TIMBP has to offer....

Send us Fan Mail We're rounding out the backlog of bottles we were sent while Perry was on paternity leave by reviewing a couple of releases from the folks at ASW Distillery in Atlanta, Georgia, as well as tasting two single malt whiskies from Royal Tiger in India! Eric has some fun pairing a snack that Perry brings along, there's Barrel Rings to be listened to, and a special appearance...

Send us Fan Mail It's always exciting to review something just a little left of center on This is my Bourbon Podcast, even if it is directly related to a bourbon brand we know and love! New Belgium's collaboration with Four Roses resulted in Oakspire Bourbon Barrel Ale, a limited release beer that is widely available and highly anticipated by both bourbon and beer drinkers alike. But, ho...

Send us Fan Mail Now THIS is a way to come back from a paternity leave, isn't it? Three reviews? CHECK. Sips 'n' Snacks? CHECK. Trying a unique single barrel pick that has ONLY EVER BEEN DONE ONCE??? THAT'S A CHECK! And what, pray tell, could possibly come out on top between the new Maker's Mark Cellar Aged, Booker's "The Reserves," and Russell's Reserv...
