    E349 - Stagg Bourbon (Batch 25D)

    Stagg (Jr.) bourbon debuted in 2013. Since then, there have been 31 different batches released, including the one that we taste and review in this weeks episode. While the "junior" was dropped from the name a couple years ago, some other things have changed as well. Once a steady semi-annual release, the past two years have included 4 batches (one per quarter). While the availability has increased, some have said that the quality has declined. When batch 25D was released, many were singing it's praises, but not uniformly. In this episode, Kenny blinds batch 25D against some other Stagg products and Anthony just makes a bunch of brilliant comments! Lol. But two for reals, tune in this week to get our honest take on Stagg 25D. Is it the best in years or should we continue to wait for these batches to return to their former brilliance? -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E348 - Old Forester 117 Series: Bottled-In-Bond Rye and Still Proof

    Old Forester has released many different whiskeys under the 117 series label. Admittedly, we are playing catch up on these. For this short, we taste and review two bottles from the 117 series (both released in 2025): Bottled-In-Bond Rye and Still Proof. The BIB rye is an age stated and bonded version of the Old Forester Rye which we have reviewed favorably in the past. The other bottle we review is the Prohibition Era Still Proof which is a four year old high proof whiskey (130 proof). How will this short of these exclusive 375ml bottles turn out? With many many laughs and some good whiskey commentary as well. Enjoy the short. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E347 - Maker's Mark Cask Strength "Age-Stated"

    Maker's Mark Cask Strength Bourbon debuted all the back in 2014. More than ten years after the fact, this offering got an upgrade of sorts from the iconic brand. At the beginning of 2026, Maker's Cask started appearing on the shelves with an age statement. This is a permanent change for the brand and every batch of Maker's Cask Strength Bourbon will carry an age statement that will be between 7-8 years old and proof will vary from 107-114. The bottle we taste and review for this episode is 7 years, 2 months old and comes in at 112.6proof. Even though we love a good age statement, we are always more concerned with how the whiskey tastes. Join us this week as we give our honest thoughts on this updated offering. We also compare it to it's non-age stated counterpart for the ultimate test. The results will surprise you. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E346 - Jack Daniel's Barrel Proof Rye Picks

    You've heard us discuss our love of Jack Daniel's Barrel Proof Rye. Furthermore, you've heard us talk about how fortunate we are to have had the opportunity to visit the distillery and participate in multiple picks. On our most recent trip to the distillery, we picked two excellent ryes. These picks were recently bottled and delivered to the store (Bluegrass Liquor Box in Georgetown, KY). In this episode, we taste and review our picks and there are some surprises as well. Call us biased if you want, but these picks are absolutely delicious and we can't wait for our community to get their hands on them. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E345 - A Midwinter Night's Dram

    A Midwinter Night's Dram is a whiskey that has been historically sought after. Once a combination of well aged rye from from Barton and MGP, this whiskey is now a combination of High West's own distillate and MGP. How does it taste? You'll have to listen to find out. In this episode, we wax poetically about MWND in the past and we have high hopes for the future. During the tasting, we got a bit sidetracked by the return of our co-host Steven and by large shipping lables. After all is said and done, we give you our honest and candid assessment of this bottle from last year. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E344 - W.L. Weller Antique (OWA) Store Pick

    We've been fortunate to pick at Buffalo Trace multiple times. In this short, we taste and review an OWA pick that we helped select about six months ago. Big thanks to Nick and Ryan for letting us take part and including us on the pick. We still think OWA is one of the best whiskeys for the price. But, what about single barrel selections? Are they worth the premium that they command? Give us a listen to find out. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E343 - New Releases From EverNorth Spirits

    We've talked about EverNorth Spirits in previous episodes of the podcast. EverNorth was founded by The Bourbon Junkies and they have been putting out some excellent whiskey over the past few years. In this episode, we dive into tasting and reviewing some of the newest releases from EverNorth. The 6th batch of Spirit Walker is known as "Kentucky Cobbler" and it is a dessert-ish whiskey that is finished in an array of different barrels. In addition to the Cobbler, we taste and review Crimson Hollow which is a blend of well-aged bourbon and light whiskey finished in Kelvin barrels. So, where to begin? Give us a listen and let us know what you think about these two new bottles from EverNorth spirits. In addition, you also get to hear some great conversation and may even some singing. Cheers. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

    E342 - A Conversation w/ Jarrod Record (Barrel King) & Alec Balas (Whiskeyland TV)

    In this episode, we sip and chat with Jarrod Record who is the co-founder of Barrel King and Alec Balas who is the co-founder of Whiskeyland TV. You've heard us mention a bit about Jarrod in past episodes when we've reviewed Barrel King products. However, having him in the basement to answer questions gave us a whole new perspective and appreciation for his bourbon journey and brand. Alec is essentially a bourbon filmmaker and he brings unique perspectives about the spirit through his ability to visualize and tell stories about everyone connected to the industry. Individually, both Jarrod and Alec have fascinating stories, but their upcoming collaboration is something you'll definitely want to check out. Together, they are launching a YouTube based whiskey series known as "Mixx Tank" which promises to bring whiskey collaborations and exceptional content with the hopes of enhancing the bourbon community. This new collaboration is a small part of a larger conversation filled with laughs and perspectives you could only get from people that are ingrained in the industry. Flanked once again by guest co-host Ryan Alves, we feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to sit down with Jarrod and Alec for this enlightening and fun conversation. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupky Join our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcast Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!
