If you didn’t know it already, “No-Shave November” is a month-long charity campaign held each November (or Movember) to raise awareness for men’s health, specifically mental health, and early awareness of prostate, testicular, and other cancers. And while it’s great to join the cause and spend a month growing a proverbial playoff beard, it’s also great when you can grow your whiskers while sipping on some tasty whiskey.

Located at 9,600 feet, Breckenridge is the highest distillery in the world. On top of that, it makes a handful of award-winning, noteworthy whiskeys. None as important as its recently released Breckenridge Dad’s Stash Bourbon.

This whiskey was made for ‘No Shave November,’ an annual charity-driven event that began in 2015 to honor Matthew Hill, a man who fought but eventually succumbed to colorectal cancer. For every bottle of this limited-edition bourbon sold, Breckenridge will donate $5 to Fight Colorectal Cancer.

The bourbon was made as a tribute to the whiskey your dad would hide or lock up because it was so flavorful and complex that he didn’t want anyone without a refined palate to indulge. It’s a blend of hand-selected bourbons. The result is a nuanced, memorable whiskey with flavors like dark chocolate, butterscotch, stone fruits, toffee, and even lychee fruit.

The smoothest bourbons for fans new to the whiskey style
Let's take a deep dive into "smooth" bourbons
Buffalo Trace

In some whiskey circles, the word “smooth” is considered to be a bad term to describe bourbon. That’s because it’s thought to be a little too vague and doesn’t really describe the spirit at all. Obviously, its simplicity doesn’t do the whiskey style justice.

But if you ask me, there’s no better, simpler way to describe America’s “native spirit” if you’re a beginner. There are a variety of reasons why bourbon is referred to as “smooth,” and I’m not here to shame drinkers if they want to use the phrase. Especially novice drinkers who are just learning the terminology. That said, if you’re new to whiskey, there are countless smooth, gateway bourbons perfectly crafted to get you started on your corn-based journey.

These new Maker’s Mark city bottles are worth a layover
Maker's Mark's new limited-edition bottles celebrate eleven cities around the world — but they're sold only in airports.
Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Pretty much everyone can spot a Maker's Mark bottle across the bar. The squat shape, the red wax bleeding down the neck — you don't need to read the label.

That's why it's actually worth checking out their Artist Series, where the City Edition puts artist Alexandra Pacula's work on eleven bottles for a slew of cities: New York, Los Angeles, Paris, London, Dubai, Delhi, Mumbai, Singapore, Seoul, Sydney, and Melbourne. Seem cool? There's a catch — it's airports only.

Nikka brings back a beloved 10-year single malt for the first time in a decade
Miyagikyo Single Malt 10 Years Old is the first age-statement release from the distillery since Japanese whisky's aged-stock crunch hit in 2015.
Whisky, bottle, label

Nikka Whisky is one of the most exciting names in Japanese whisky, so when they make a big announcement, it's almost always worth taking an interest. That's especially the case with the release of Miyagikyo Single Malt 10 Years Old, the flagship expression from its Miyagikyo Distillery — the fruit-forward, mountain-set second distillery Nikka built near Sendai, Japan, in 1969.

This release is the first age-statement Miyagikyo since 2015, and it follows the 2022 return of Yoichi Single Malt 10 Years Old, its coastal sibling. Bottled at 45% ABV, the 700ml release has a $174.99 price tag, so it's not exactly an impulse purchase — and with just 1,572 bottles available nationwide, tracking down a pour may be tough in the first place.
