Rebel Single Barrel Store Picks: Distiller's Collection and Cask Strength

Two weeks ago I covered a pair of Ezra Brooks store picks that I’d picked up in Kentucky and the branding program that led to each bottle having a different name. Tonight we are taking a look at the wheated versions of the same program by looking at a Rebel Distiller’s Collection store pick and a Rebel Cask Strength store pick. I went over the program in the Ezra Brooks post but to recap:

There are two main differences between these two labels. The first is the proof. Rebel Distiller’s Collection store picks are bottled at 113° proof while Rebel Cask Strength store picks are bottled at 120° proof. The other difference is in how the picks occurred. Distiller’s Collection picks are allocated and are done via samples sent to the retailer. There are no in-person barrel picks for these barrels. The Rebel Cask Strength picks, on the other hand, are not allocated and are only done at Lux Row Distillery. So what each label tells you, the consumer, is whether your retailer went to the distillery to pick the barrel or whether it was sent to them via samples. As I said last time, I’m sure there is a reason for this that I am not seeing since I do not work in either a distillery or a liquor store. But in any case, there you go.

So let’s check out a couple of store picks. The Distiller’s Collection is from Jax Liquors in Chattanooga, Tennessee and the Cask Strength is from Liquor Barn in Danville, Kentucky.

Rebel Cask Strength Single Barrel Selections

Rebel Distiller's Collection (Jax Liquors)

Purchase Info: $39.99 for a 750 mL bottle at Jax Liquors, Chattanooga, TN.

Price per Drink (50 mL): $2.67

Details: 56.5% ABV. Barrel #: 7503430. Barrel filled: 9/30/2016.

Nose: Dried grains, wheat bread, mint, and a hint of honey.

Mouth: Hot and sweet with a good mouthfeel. Notes of honey, cinnamon, and wheat bread.

Finish: Long and warm. Strong notes of cinnamon candies and honey.

Rebel Cask Strength (Liquor Barn #4)

Purchase Info: $58.99 for a 750 mL bottle at Liquor Barn, Danville, KY.

Price per Drink (50 mL): $3.93

Details: 60% ABV. Barrel#: 7270811. Barrel filled: 12/31/2015.

Nose: Dusty oak (think the inside of a rick house), cinnamon, and honey.

Mouth: Oak, cinnamon, chocolate, and orange.

Finish: Warm and long. Follows the mouth with notes of orange, chocolate, cinnamon, and oak.

Thoughts: These are both very good, yet noticeably different. The Jax Liquors bottle was very hot, but also really sweet. The Liquor Barn bottle showed much more oak and a sort of orange note that I found a bit surprising. The orange is kind of like the orange slice jelly candies. I wasn't expecting that. It's tasty though. The chocolate notes really elevate this one. If forced to choose I'd choose the sweeter Jax bottle. My wife however is drawn to the Liquor Barn bottle. Good thing we bought both!

Ezra Brooks Single Barrel Store Picks: Distiller's Collection and Cask Strength

And we’re back! I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving! I know that mine was fantastic. It started out with a ton of dogs in my house. On Thanksgiving itself we had our traditional pan of Lasagna (neither my wife or I like turkey in it’s domesticated form), home made pumpkin pie made from pie pumpkin from our garden, and of course a glass or two of Wild Turkey. As the weekend progressed and the number of dogs began to dwindle, my beloved Minnesota Golden Gophers walloped our hated rival the Wisconsin Badgers in an upset to take possession of Paul Bunyan’s Axe.

It was a glorious weekend.

Of course as the weekend started to draw to a close, I took a look at the calendar to see what was on the docket for tastings this week. I’d been not so patiently waiting for this pair of Ezra Brooks store picks’ turn to come since I picked them up. See, I’d found this pair, and their brethren with the Rebel label, while wandering around Tennessee and Kentucky. I’d had a vague recollection of reading about a single barrel store pick brand on the market, but that’s all it was just a vague recollection. So when I saw that there were two different labels for sale at the various stores, I figured it would be best to buy them both and figure it out when I got home.

So once I got home, I reached out to my PR contact for Lux Row and asked what was going on. According to the information he passed along, there are two main differences between these two labels. The first is the proof. Ezra Brooks Distiller’s Collection store picks are bottled at 107° proof while Ezra Brooks Cask Strength store picks are bottled at 120° proof. The other difference is in how the picks occurred. Distiller’s Collection picks are allocated and are done via samples sent to the retailer. There are no in-person barrel picks for these barrels. On the other hand, Ezra Brooks Cask Strength picks are not allocated and are only done at Lux Row Distillery.

So what each label tells you, the consumer, is whether your retailer went to the distillery to pick the barrel or whether it was sent to them via samples. I’m sure there is a reason for this that I am not seeing since I do not work in either a distillery or a liquor store.

So let’s check out a couple of store picks. Both from Kentucky.

Ezra Brooks Single Barrel Store Picks: Distiller's Collection and Cask Strength

Distiller's Collection: Total Wine, KY PJ #2

Purchase Info: $35.99 for a 750 mL bottle at Total Wine, Louisville, KY

Price per drink (50 mL): $2.40

Details: 53.5% ABV. Barrel #: 7384651. Barrel filled: 5/4/2016

Nose: Leads with oak notes. Beyond that are notes of nutmeg, spearmint, and vanilla.

Mouth: Nutty with notes of mint, nutmeg, and oak.

Finish: Warm and of medium length. Notes of mint, caramel, and nutmeg.

Cask Strength: Liquor Barn #3

Purchase Info: $52.99 for a 750 mL bottle at Liquor Barn, Danville, KY

Price per drink (50 mL): $3.53

Details: 60% ABV. Barrel #: 7544620. Barrel filled: 11/15/2016.

Nose: Vanilla, honey, orange julius, and baking spice.

Mouth: Spicy warmth with notes of baking spice, mint, citrus, and cocoa.

Finish: Spicy, warm, and of medium length- Notes of cinnamon and chocolate.

Thoughts: These are both very good. Glad I stumbled across both of them. The Total Wine bottle is sweeter whereas the Liquor Barn bottle is much more baking spice forward. If trying to define the major difference between the two, I'd say that the Liquor Barn bottle is "Beam-ier" than the Total Wine (Jim Beam and Heaven Hill being the suppliers for Lux Row as I learned from Cheif Marketing Officer and Lux family member on my tour of the facility). Saying that they are both in the Ezra Brooks flavor profile. I like them both. A lot. I am hoping my local stores can get in on these programs soon.

Baker’s Exclusive Selection. Limited Edition Release

I’d like to thank the folks at Beam Suntory and their PR firms for providing a review sample with no strings attached.

View fullsize

We are still working our way through the sample backlog tonight so why don’t we jump right in.

Back in 2019, Baker’s Bourbon transitioned from a Small Batch to a Single Barrel Product. I’ve always been a fan of Baker’s. In fact, I’d say that it was probably my favorite of the Small Batch Collection. And the new single barrel version continued that even though I don’t buy it often as Knob Creek is so much less expensive in my neck of the woods. So imagine my delight when Beam Suntory announced that they had released a Limited Edition version of Baker’s Bourbon. This one is aged 11 years, 8 months. Sounded pretty good to me.

Let’s see how it tastes though.

Baker’s Exclusive Selection

Purchase Price: This sample was provided by the producer for review purposes. The suggested retail price is $99.99.

Price per Drink (50 ml): $6.67

Details: 11 years, 8 months old. 53.5% ABV.

Nose: Leather, cinnamon, red fruit, and oak.

Mouth: Spicy cinnamon, leather, brown sugar, red fruits, and oak.

Finish: Medium in heat and length. Lingering notes of cinnamon spice and oak.

Thoughts: As I said above, I'm a big fan of Baker's Bourbon. And this? Well, this is a very nice Baker's Selection. It hits all the notes I've always enjoyed in a pour of Baker's. It's sweet, spicy, and bold. If I knew a Baker's fan that I wanted to get a gift for, I can see myself seeking this out. For myself, the Standard Baker's Single Barrel release would be "good enough." Baker’s Exclusive Selection is really good, but I can't see myself paying the $40 premium for it unless it was a gift.

Elijah Craig Barrel Proof: C921

I’d like to thank Heaven Hill for providing this review sample to me with no strings attached.

View fullsize

You know, I like Bourbon. I know that doesn’t come as a shock to most of you since, well, I do tend to write about it twice a week. But it is worth saying now and then when you are someone who acts as a critic. I love bourbon. Everything I write on this site stems from that. I won’t go so far as to say there is no bad bourbon, there is. (Cough…TerrePure…cough cough). But generally, I like bourbon. It’s one of the reasons the majority of products get a “like” rating. I just generally like the stuff. Occasionally there is one that I very much dislike. Like, it is bad. Or that really does nothing for me. It isn’t bad, but it isn’t for me. I don’t have this happen too often because I try really hard to only purchase things I’m pretty sure I’ll enjoy. I mean, I’m going to have the rest of the bottle left after the review and I can only use so much prop bourbon.

But every so often, something surprises me. I’ve been doing this long enough that when a sample of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof shows up, I know I’m going to really enjoy it. I expect that and have never been disappointed. It is just damn fine whiskey. But this time I was surprised. Read on to see why.

Eijah Craig Barrel Proof, C921

Purchase Info: This bottle was provided by the producer for review purposes. I have found previous editions locally for as low as $69.99 for a 750 mL bottle at Total Wine.

Price per Drink (50mL): $4.67

Details: 60.1% ABV. 12-years-old.

Nose: Caramel, mint, red fruits, chocolate, and vanilla.

Mouth: Warm, but not as hot as the proof would lead you to expect. Sweet with notes of caramel, vanilla, allspice, red fruits, and chocolate.

Finish: Medium-long and sweet. Notes of floral vanilla, chocolate and baking spices.

Thoughts: This is delicious. Even at 120 proof it is drinkable neat. Sweet caramel, vanilla, and chocolate throughout. Nice baking spice notes. It isn’t enough to say that I'm a big fan of this one. I love it.

Comparison to B521: In my opinion, there is no question that C921 is better in every way. It is richer in the mouth and on the nose. Sweeter, spicier, better mouthfeel. It's so good. Don't get me wrong, I really liked B521, but I love C921! If you run across it, do yourself a favor and buy it. This might be the best bourbon I've had this year.

In fact, I’m going to pull out a very seldom used award. I’m going to say that Elijah Craig Barrel Proof C921 is only the second recipient of the BourbonGuy.com Bourbon of the Year Award. I only give this to bourbons that are by far the best thing I’ve had all year. The last one was awarded way back in 2017. I haven’t had a bourbon that was that much better than every other bourbon since. But this one qualifies. Nice job Heaven Hill!

George Dickel Bourbon

I’m not going to lie, I bought a lot of whiskey on vacation. And by no small coincidence, a lot of the stuff I purchased happened to be things that I either haven’t had, or haven’t written about. You gotta have content. And as such it’ll probably be December before I stop referencing it. I really hope that you don’t get sick of posts that bring it up.

I mean, I could try writing so that I don’t mention it, but where is the fun in that?

Anyway I primarily stayed in two cities while on vacation, Chattanooga and Louisville. I’ve been to Louisville numerous times but I’d never been to Chattanooga before except as a place I drove through on the way to somewhere else. And as it was our first time in the area, we really felt the need to do some touristy things. We visited Rock City, which was cooler than I’d have thought it would be; we paid our respects at the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park; and because of who we are, we went to distilleries. I did the tour and tasting at both Jack Daniel’s and at Chattanooga Whiskey. I didn’t at Cascade Hollow though. Mostly because they were not offering tours. Instead I spent a lot of money in the gift shop as I picked up a few things that I couldn’t easily get at home. I grabbed a 15-year-old Single Barrel, I grabbed a current Bottled-in-Bond for about $15 cheaper than I’d find it at home, and I grabbed tonight’s Bourbon. That’s right, Bourbon.

From June’s launch press release:

For Cascade Hollow Distilling Co.'s General Manager and Distiller, Nicole Austin, creating Dickel Bourbonwas an opportunity to showcase the amazing, mature whiskies at the distillery. At the same time, it allowed the brand to give a home to those barrels that leaned into more traditional bourbon notes and did not express the Tennessee Whiskey tasting characteristics found in the rest of the George Dickel offerings.

Basically it is the same juice, following the same procedures, that is in all of their other Tennessee Whiskey products, it just tastes more like a traditional bourbon then those do. But much more important to me than what they call it, is how it tastes. Let’s find out.

George Dickel Bourbon

Purchase Price: $40.00 for a 750 mL bottle at the Cascade Hollow Distilling Co. Gift Shop, Tullahoma, TN. $30.99 for a 750 mL bottle at Kroger, Louisville, KY.

Price per Drink (50 mL): $2.67 (TN), $2.07 (KY)

Details: 8 years old, 45% ABV

Nose: Red fruit, herbal mint, caramel, baking spice, and mineral notes.

Mouth: Thin mouthfeel. Caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Finish: Medium length and very flavorful. Cinnamon red hots, caramel, vanilla, mint and the "Dickel" mineral note.

Thoughts: I like this one. Not as much as the high-end, extra-aged Dickel products, but more than No. 8 or No. 12. I picked up a bottle of Bottled-in-Bond at the same time for only five dollars more, and I definately like that better. But since people in my neck of the woods are gouging on the Bonded, this will be a pretty good alternative once it shows up here in Minnesota.

Daviess County Double Barrel Bourbon

I’d like to thank ByrnePR and Lux Row for providing this review sample with no strings attached.

View fullsize

Last year, Lux Row launched Daviess County Straight Bourbon (for about $40) as well as a French Oak cask-finished bourbon and a Cabernet Sauvignon cask-finished bourbon (for about $45). Their timing on the launch wasn’t great. As their press release confirmed, a lot of things were going on right about the time the brand launched, and a lot of people, myself included, just forgot about them. Luckily for all of us, Lux Row has reminded us of the Daviess County line of bourbons by releasing a new variety: Double Barrel Bourbon. I did an in-depth discussion of the history of the Daviess County brand last year when the initial three products in the line were released so I won’t go into all that again except to say that I really enjoyed all three and was happy to receive the reminder that the line existed.

Daviess County Double Barrel is being released in partnership with Ducks Unlimited and the name is a play on both the gun often used in duck hunting as well as the finishing process used to create the bourbon. According to the press release:

Finished in Missouri white-oak barrels with toasted heads, Daviess County Double Barrel was created by Lux Row Master Distiller and long-time DU member, John Rempe. Double Barrel features a mashbill that is similar to the other Daviess County Bourbon variants, along with the same proof level (96 proof). The double-barrel finish gives this limited-edition release a unique flavor profile … Available for purchase beginning mid-September, Daviess County Double Barrel Bourbon has a limited supply offering at a suggested retail price of $49.99 per bottle. DU members can sample and bid on Daviess County Double Barrel Bourbon at a series of DU events to be announced later this year.

Now, fast forward to a couple of weeks ago when I left on a wonderfully long vacation. The day I left, I happened to receive a FedEx package containing the newest release in Lux Row’s Daviess County line of bourbons. And because I am the type of person who likes to drink bourbon while on vacation, I immediately shoved the bottle into my luggage and brought it along. I also decided to grab a couple of Glencairn glasses so that I could do the tasting notes while I was gone as well. I mean, you folks probably want to know if it is any good, right?

Daviess County Double Barrel Bourbon

Purchase Info: This sample was provided by the producer for review purposes. The suggested retail price is $49.99 for a 750 mL bottle.

Price per Drink (50 mL): $3.33

Nose: Bubble gum, mint, red fruits, good bread, and oak.

Mouth: Caramel, chocolate, mint, cinnamon.

Finish: Medium warmth and length. Notes of bubblegum, mint, cinnamon, caramel, chocolate, fruit, oak, and good artisan bread.

Thoughts from a Louisville Loft: This has a really nice finish. Tons of flavors coming through after you swallow. I'm a fan.

Thoughts from Home: This is really good. Powerful cinnamon with a lovely sweetness when compared to the Straight Bourbon. Double Barrel is much sweeter than the straight bourbon. It also has more defined cinnamon notes and is lacking some of the “burn.” One might say Double Barrel is “smoother” if they were apt to use that descriptor. I enjoyed the heck out of this while on vacation and will continue to enjoy the rest of it now that I am home.

Four Roses 2021 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon

I’d like to thank the folks at Four Roses for providing this review sample to me with no strings attached.

View fullsize

Oh my goodness! I am so excited! I’m sitting here in my gold top and maroon shorts because BigTen Football starts tonight when the Minnesota Golden Gophers host the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Ok, fans of teams that played on Saturday will say that it really started when Illinois kicked off to Nebraska sometime after 12 noon on the 28th. But, “Week 0?” come on…even the powers that be knew that it didn’t start until this week. And if those Nebraska fans watched the same debacle…err…game I did, well I’m guessing they would also like to forget that stinker of a game.

So since my beloved Golden Gophers are hosting the number 4 team in the country tonight in Ohio State, I get the added bonus of having zero pressure while watching the game. Usually, I hope for a win and worry about a loss. Tonight I know we will get blown out so I can just enjoy watching my Gophers without the pressure of hoping we win. I plan to enjoy it. Maybe I’ll even enjoy a small pour of the bourbon we are looking at tonight after the game ends. Either as consolation or as a celebration.

Yeah, I know it’ll be the former but let’s not get negative.

So what is tonight’s bourbon? Well, that would be the 2021 release of Four Roses Limited Edition Small Batch. This year it is made up of four of their bourbon recipes: a 16-year-old OESV, a 12-year-old OESK, a 14-year-old OBSQ, and a 16-year-old OBSV. I love that floral/herbal/fruity note that the Q yeast brings. If I see a Q or an F yeast used in a Single Barrel Pick while out shopping, it always comes home with me. It just hits the right notes with my palate. So I’m pretty excited to see this one included in the blend.

The suggested retail price is $150 per bottle. It’ll roll out to retailers in September, but if you are feeling lucky, and will be able to make it to Kentucky to pick it up in the last half of September they will be having a lottery drawing to purchase a bottle at the distillery gift shop. Visit the Four Roses Small Batch Limited Edition website between August 31 and September 12 to enter.

Four Roses 2021 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon

Purchase Info: This sample was provided by the producer for review purposes. The suggested retail price is $150.

Price Per Drink (50 mL): $10.00

Details: 57.2% ABV. Features a 16-year-old OESV, a 12-year-old OESK, a 14-year-old OBSQ, and a 16-year-old OBSV.

Nose: Cinnamon, JuicyFruit gum, caramel, oak, leather, and vanilla.

Mouth: Red fruits, caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, clove, leather, and tobacco.

Finish: Long and warm with notes of cinnamon candies, JuicyFruit gum, leather, and oak.

Thoughts: Shows off much more oak than any of the standard releases from Four Roses. which is either a good or bad thing depending on how much oak you like. I’m digging the fruity/floral notes that the Q yeast is bringing. It’s one of my favorites to pick up when I find it as a single-barrel pick of Four Roses. My wife loves this one. I really like it, but it’s showing just a touch too much oak for me. Don't get me wrong, it is very good. And if I happen to be chosen in a lottery to buy one, I’ll probably jump at the chance.

Yellowstone Limited Edition 2021

I’d like to thank ByrnePR and Lux Row for providing this review sample with no strings attached.

View fullsize

We are going to do something a little different tonight. Normally, my wife and I do tastings together and the published tasting notes are an amalgamation of each of our notes. Well, I couldn’t do that this week because my wife isn’t here. She is spending the week with her mother on a trip to Yellowstone National Park. Her mother had never been and wanted to go before she died. Not that my mother-in-law is in immediate danger of dying, but she is almost 80 years old. So there is only so much time left.

By a weird coincidence, last Friday, I got a sample of the latest edition of Yellowstone Limited Edition bourbon. I thought it only fitting to send a healthy sample with my wife so she could do her tasting notes of Yellowstone Bourbon while she visited Yellowstone National Park. As you can see in the photo above, I did mine at my desk.

My very dusty desk.

The 2021 edition of Yellowstone Limited features a mixture of seven-year-old and fifteen-year-old bourbons with some of the seven-year-old having been finished in Amarone wine casks. Amarone is a dry, rich, Italian red wine made from partially dried grapes and aged for at least in oak casks. The suggested retail price of the 2021 Yellowstone Limited Edition is $99.99.

So now, back to the something different. Since our tasting notes were conducted about 1000 miles apart and done with no interaction between the two of us. I thought it would be fun to publish both sets of notes without combining them.

Yellowstone Limited Edition Bourbon, 2021 edition

Purchase Info: This sample was sent by the producer for review purposes. The suggested retail price is $99.99.

Price per Drink (50 mL): $6.67

My Wife’s Notes

Nose: Vanilla, caramel, and cherry.

Mouth: Almond/cherry, caramel, cinnamon (spicy), and sweet baking spice.

Finish: Warm and medium length. Cinnamon and almond/cherry notes.

Thoughts: I love it!

My Notes

Nose: Vanilla ice cream, black cherry, and caramel.

Mouth: Dry and spicy. Notes of cinnamon, tobacco, brown sugar, and black pepper

Finish: Dry, spicy, and pretty long. Nutty with more cinnamon, cherry, and black pepper.

Thoughts: This is one of those bourbons that I enjoy much more in a "drinking glass" than I do in a tasting glass. Lucky for me, I hate drinking out of a Glencairn. My usual rocks glass accentuates the fruitier notes where the Glencairn seems to accentuate the drier aspects of the drink. This is pretty good. It isn't my favorite of the Yellowstone Limited releases, I like a sweeter whisky usually. But this is no slouch either.

Oh and this was the view out of my wife’s cabin at Old Faithful tonight.
