    Barrels, Bidders & Bourbon 3.0

    This week’s episode dives deep into the ever-evolving world of bourbon with a packed update: we’re talking major new releases like the Four Roses 2025 Limited Edition, Heaven Hill’s Bottled-in-Bond Artist Series, and the return of Michter’s US*1 Toasted Sour Mash. You’ll hear about A. Smith Bowman’s award-winning cask strength, and Union Horse’s shift to year-round distribution. But it’s not just about what’s in the bottle—we also explore the challenges shaking up the $9B bourbon industry: overproduction, Gen Z drinking trends, export tariffs, and the ripple effects on jobs and wages. Plus, you’ll get the inside scoop on sustainability efforts (Buffalo Trace’s stillage-to-protein play), the White Oak Resilience Act, and the concept of “Bourbon 3.0.” Finally, we preview key upcoming events like the Kentucky Bourbon Festival, Bourbon SIPosium, and global whiskey expansions. Whether you’re a casual sipper or seasoned collector, this episode will leave your glass full of insight.

    Legacy in a Bottle: Bourbon Icons, Rare Drops, and Final Salutes

    This week, we dive into a lineup of bourbon releases that define craftsmanship and rarity—like Stitzel Reserve’s 24-Year, Weller’s Millennium Blend, and the groundbreaking I.W. Harper 34-Year partnership with Colman Domingo. We also unpack Buffalo Trace’s sustainability pivot and celebrate Heaven Hill’s big win as Distillery of the Year. Then, in a heartfelt moment, we raise a glass to two legends—Ozzy Osbourne and Hulk Hogan—with a tribute that blends music, nostalgia, and lasting influence. Legacy runs deep in this one—whether in the barrel or the ring.
