Pumpkin Old Fashioned Cocktail Recipe
By: Fork & Stave
Fall is upon us and what better way to get in the Autumn spirit than with a unique cocktail? For this play on the Old Fashioned cocktail, I infused some W.L. Weller bourbon with Libby’s pure pumpkin mash. Pumpkin blends very well with the caramel and vanilla flavors of the Weller. I wanted to incorporate brown sugar as well, so I made some brown sugar cubes. I included that recipe below, but [...]

Hirsch Small Batch Reserve Bourbon Review
By: Fork & Stave
Proof: 92 Proof (46% ABV)
Rating: 
(3 out of 5)
I ran across this bottle at my local retailer last weekend and I thought I would give it a shot. I’ve read good things about the Hirsch label, but it’s usually about their older expressions that are well into the triple digit price range. This particular product from Anchor Distilling Company in San Francisco, California, has numerous accolades [...]

This is my first experience with a product from 2012 Distiller of the year: Michter’s Distillery. Like many of you, I’ve been seeing their bottle all over the place lately, so I figured it was time to sample the goods. It can be difficult to find certain small batch or rare whiskies here [...]

When the Distiller’s Select is emptied from it’s original barrel, it is put into a second barrel, made specially for this purpose, at 110 proof for roughly 9 months. The characteristics of the second barrel include a longer [...]
Belle Meade Bourbon

Proof: 90.4 Proof (45.2% ABV)
Rating: (4 out of 5)
I saw this bourbon for the first time when visiting some friends in Nashville this past Spring. When I returned home to Birmingham, I saw that it was also available in my local liquor store. Belle Meade Bourbon is the culmination of the efforts of Charlie and Andy Nelson, two young entrepreneurs. Their great-great-great grandfather [...]
