Lost Lantern is an independent bottler of American whiskey located in Vermont. This award-winning brand is about removing any stigma surrounding the term “sourced whiskey.” Their goal is to find complex, unique, noteworthy whiskeys and release them as single-cask expressions or blends. They’ve worked with more than 30 different distilleries to release limited-edition whiskeys.

Recently, the brand announced not only one new expression but a whole collection. Its Fall 2024 Collection features a 10-year-old bourbon, two 10-year-old rye whiskies, and an almost 10-year-old American single malt whiskey. These four expressions are the oldest whiskeys the brand has ever released. Each release is non-chill filtered and bottled at cask strength.

“As more American distilleries reach new milestones, whiskey lovers will see a greater variety of age statements, proving that age and quality come from intentional craftsmanship, not just tradition,” Lost Lantern co-founder Adam Polonski said in a press release. “The whiskies in this collection honor distilleries that have demonstrated patience and dedication. After all, there’s only one way for a distillery to end up with a 10-year-old whiskey they made themselves: make it and wait ten years.”

Tequila vs. vodka: Exploring the key differences between two popular spirits
Vodka

I’ve been writing about spirits for almost two decades. I’ve learned the ins and outs of every popular hard alcohol. But if you’re new to the spirits world, you might not know the differences between tequila and vodka. Tequila vs. vodka –this is especially true when both are unaged. In appearance alone, the two spirits look remarkably similar. When made with high-quality ingredients, distilled multiple times, and filtered a handful of times, both tequila and vodka are crystal clear. There aren’t any noticeable differences. The same could be said for a bottle of gin or a glass of tap water.

Once you take a whiff, the differences begin to reveal themselves. Unaged (or blanco) tequila carries aromas like vegetal sweetness, cooked agave, vanilla, and cracked black pepper. Vodka has different aromas based on its main ingredient (wheat, rye, corn, potatoes, or something else), but you can bet you find scents of neutral ethanol, minerality, vanilla, cracked black pepper, and even citrus peels.
