Mr. & Mrs Bourbon

Established in 2019, Mr. & Mrs. Bourbon is a private partnership between founder Russ Smith and renowned distillers throughout Kentucky. Currently, the brand has released a variety of noteworthy bourbon and rye whiskeys. Recently, not only did the brand announce a new bourbon, but one in which it collaborated with a Grammy-nominated R&B artist.

The whiskey itself is a wheated Kentucky straight bourbon that was distilled in 2018 and matured for a full six years in charred oak barrels. The result is a 100-proof whiskey that (according to the brand) is loaded with complex flavors like vanilla, toffee, caramel, and “warm earthy notes.”

“This collaboration represents much more than just a bottle of bourbon to me,” October London said in a press release. “It’s about honoring the artistry that goes into both music and bourbon. Just like in music, the process of creating something as complex and refined as bourbon is a journey. It’s about blending tradition with innovation, and I’m proud to be part of this with Mr. & Mrs. Bourbon.”

Jagermeister goes citrus with new orange release

Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Alcohol is the ultimate gathering tool. No matter what event you have coming up, you can almost always bet on a good drink (unless it is a baby shower; then maybe not). From the moment I joined the United States Army, I became quite familiar with the presence of Jagermeister. It was a constant pillar of our get-togethers for two main reasons. The first was that we didn’t make a lot of money, and it has always been one of the more accessible liquors when we walked down the booze aisles of the Class 6 (picture a 711 on a military post). The second reason is that it is the perfect shot drink. It never needed a mixer. It is designed to be poured as a shot straight from the freezer. However, Jager is also versatile enough to make some great cocktails. Now, the brand dropped the perfect summer upgrade with an orange twist.

Bib & Tucker’s first bottled-in-bond bourbon is aged twice the legal minimum

Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Bib & Tucker is releasing its first bottled-in-bond bourbon, and the Columbia, Tennessee brand went well past what the designation actually asks for.

Bottled-in-bond is one of the oldest and strictest standards in American whiskey. The Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897 requires that a whiskey be distilled in a single season by a single distiller at a single distillery, aged at least four years in a federally bonded warehouse, and bottled at exactly 100 proof. No wiggle room on any of it.

Old Elk’s new 10-year collection is its first big move under new ownership

Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Old Elk just dropped three bottles at once, and every one of them is a full decade old. That’s a pretty big statement of purpose from the Fort Collins, Colorado brand, now owned by Middle West Spirits.

The Ohio-based parent company has become a serious supplier in the last few years, and they’re putting that muscle behind Old Elk with the 10-Year-Old Collection. The new drop consists of a Straight Bourbon, a Wheated Bourbon, and a Straight Wheat Whiskey, all aged ten years before bottling.
