Based on the glass code, I'm putting this Hiram Walker Imperial Blended Whiskey to be from around 1973.

And … [Read more...] about Hiram Walker Imperial Blended Whiskey Review

Early Times Kentucky Whisky Review
Early Times Kentucky Whisky is currently owned by Sazerac, but this little bottle was distilled by Brown-Forman. How do I know?

This little guy has been … [Read more...] about Early Times Kentucky Whisky Review

Wonderland Cask Strength Blend of Straight Whiskeys Review
I love seeing products like this Wonderland Cask Strength Blend of Straight Whiskeys in the market. It's not a new idea to take whiskey from other distilleries and blend them to create something new, the whole Scotch industry is built on it, but it is fairly new in America... … [Read more...] about Wonderland Cask Strength Blend of Straight Whiskeys Review
Gambler 500 Whiskey Review
I was digging through a shelf of "to review" whiskeys and found this open bottle of Gambler 500 Whiskey sitting in the back.
