Whisky appreciation

I enjoy all of the types of bourbon made by Wood Hat Spirits in New Florence, Missouri. Their Twin Timber’s is finished in pecan barrels. Smooth.. He also makes wood hats if you find you need one.

I've never seen a Wood hat, or heard of them.
I think a Pith Helmet may be more fitting with the theme here.

Being born and blessed in the US, and having lived and worked in the colonies (UK, Oz) lol, I do appreciate a good whiskey! And making a bit of rock gut on my my own.

With Ardberg and Lagavulin you are off to a good start.

I’m still waiting for that Bunnahabhain 25 year to go on sale…it might be a while!

Check out their website. Then you’ll have seen a wood hat. No promises whether you’ll understand the need for such a thing. I don’t. I have seen plenty of need for their spirits.

Lots of weird (and wonderful) stuff comes out of MO…like that that restaurant that throws hot bread rolls at you near Springfield.

@Doug3006
That wood hat is pretty cool, would take a bit to make.

Had the pleasure of trying this today and loved it.

Bought a bottle of Teelings this morning. Looking forward to trying it at Christmas.

Found a new one today...Oak & Eden Toasted Oak Finished Whiskey. It has a spiral cut piece of "toasted" American oak in the bottle for finishing. Tastes like smooooooth honey with a warm finish. No burn whatsoever. Priced at $50, I think it's worth a try.

May have already been mentioned, but I recently tried the port barrel finished angel’s envy. I may have a new favorite!

Hazelburn 10 years. Campbeltown single malt. A steal for the price

A friend brought this one by last week. It’s worthy. Apologies if it’s already on here:

Some Western whiskies made their way to my house…

I enjoy High West.

You should try some Del Bac on your next Coues deer hunt.

Second on the High West. A friend worked at the resort right next door to the distillery and told me about it. Smooth!

While down in Kentucky recently I picked up some bourbon that up in missouri are allocated. Mitchers bourbon - im not that impressed with. No age statement but seems to be around 8 years. Its smooth enough but the flavors are just lackluster. At $45-50 it seems to be a bad value imo.

Their Rye is much better, but you are the first person I have met that didn’t like it. That said, Weller doesn’t impress me (I don’t like wheated bourbons - creates an almond flavor sweetness that I despise).

@curtism1234 - I agree with @BourbonTrail, the Mitchers Rye is really good if you like rye.
