This is one of my husband’s favorite bourbons. Cafe Ole comes from a distillery called Glenn’s Creek. Very little distillery right down the road from Castle 🏰 & Key🔑 This is for sure a hidden 💎 gem.

Molasses cookies, with dark edges of cocoa and toasted bread.

👅 Tons of cola …Roasted corn and a strong finish of Coffee beans.

Happy Father’s Day to all the awesome dads!!!

We tasted: Bowman Brothers Single Barrel, Heaven Hill BIB, Johnny Drum and James E Pepper Rye. Each one paired with chocolate. As a gift, I left behind my homemade rosemary smoked simple syrup.

Today I found a steal of a deal. We walked into a thrift shop and found these chairs. We didn’t know how awesome of a treasure we found until we did some flipping of the chairs and researching. If I’m being honest, I thought these chairs were maybe from a vineyard, I was still thrilled about it. What we found out: these chairs were made from The San Hygene Company. A company famous for making mattresses. In 1958 the company began making barrel chairs. The Barrels were from only three KY distilleries nonetheless. 1 barrel = 2 chairs. They would charge $79.50 / chair (in today’s money that is $700). The best finding was that these chairs were made from my very favorite distillery barrels, Willett Distillery in 1959. The original upholstery was scraps found within the factory. These chairs will be a great conversation starter for years to come!!! Naturally, I’m drinking Pure Kentucky and Johnny Drum this evening in celebration of this great find!!! Cheers 🥃

On December 5, 1933, three states voted to repeal Prohibition, putting the ratification of the 21st Amendment into place.

Congress first proposed the 21st Amendment in February 1933, and it took the unusual method of calling for state conventions to vote on the amendment, instead of submitting it to state legislatures. Conventions in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Utah approved the amendment on that fateful December day, bringing the total to 36 states who wanted to end Prohibition—the three-quarters majority required by the Constitution. Can I get a 🙌🏼

It was a pleasure educating professionals at York Traditions Bank for a corp event. If you would like to book an event please reach out to me.

All of the tasting boards made with love by Trees to Table.

I love the way these have turned out. Staves are from barrel. Trees to Table turned staves into tasting boards. She kept the char which I’m obsessed with!!!

This bottle was right from the barrel, char and all if you look closely you will see. My husband Tom Vranich is seen in photos below bottling this guy. Whiskey Thief Distilling Co grows and harvests their own corn from Three Boys Farm’s bottom field. This bourbon is paired with with a rye. 116.4 proof. This packs a healthy amount of heat.

👅 oats with vanilla / slight hint of nutmeg
Finish 0 burn, a little warm lingering into oak

I got this one at the Party Source which is the largest liquor store east of the Mississippi. It’s located in Bellevue, Ky right outside of Cincinnati, Ohio.
This is delicious and I would recommend buying it if you find.
👃 nutty
👅 sour cherry
The finish on this is pepper / oak
This is 118 proof and worth the spend.

Product endorsement for all you Bourbon drinkers. The clear ice cube is the only way to go.

The Fresh Bourbon mash bill consists of corn, honey malt, malted wheat, malted rye and malted barley. This distillery is very unique to others as they store their bourbon in a variety of sizes of barrels including the nano barrel.

👅 brown sugar and nutty
The finish is long and warm with a touch of toffee
I also love my new PJs
