Knob Creek 25th Anniversary Single Barrel Bourbon

25 years ago Jim Beam Master Distiller Booker Noe helped change the bourbon landscape with the release of Knob Creek bourbon. Knob helped usher in a small batch movement that continues to this day. To celebrate the anniversary of this important release, the folks at Beam are releasing a limited edition, unfiltered, cask strength, single barrel version of Knob Creek. It was aged for 12-13 years, and the proof ranges between 120-125. Since it's a single barrel release, there are slight nuances and variations with each barrel. The bottles arrive in a sharp, wooden box that features a unique label, including a handwritten bottling date and proof.

1792 225th Anniversary Bourbon

In 1792, Kentucky became a Commonwealth and the 15th state to join the nation. This year marks the 225th anniversary of that historic milestone, and Barton Distillery is ready with a special release. 1792 225th Anniversary Bourbon was aged for ten years at the distillery before being bottled at exactly 92.15 proof. The proof is so precise because it too pays homage to the year and Kentucky being the 15th state in the Union. The dark blue neck band on the bottle and back label are also nods to the official state seal of Kentucky. And by the way, you can only purchase this limited edition release in the Bluegrass state, making it an even more desirable treasure for collectors.

Four Roses 50th Anniversary Bourbon

This year, to celebrate Senior Brand Ambassador Al Young, Four Roses is releasing a special Limited Edition 50th Anniversary Small Batch Bourbon in his honor. Young spent a good chunk of his tenure as Distillery Manager before being named Brand Ambassador in 2007. Also, Young literally wrote the book on Four Roses bourbon that was published in 2010. This unique blend of bourbons includes 15-year-old OBSK, 13-year-old OESV, 12-year-old OBSF, and 23-year-old OBSV — which was produced during Al's time as Distillery Manager. And the bottle design is exclusive as well, as the Four Roses team dipped into their archives to re-create the look of the bottles produced in 1967, the year Young started his career.

Weller 12 Bourbon

Named after William LaRue Weller, a bourbon pioneer who substituted wheat into his bourbon recipes in place of Rye, Weller 12 is consistently mentioned among some of the best bourbons being made today. And just like its namesake, the entire Weller line has reached legendary status in recent years due to its affordability and the fact that it shares a home distillery and mashbill with another wheater known as Pappy Van Winkle. Aged for 12 years and boasting a brand new bottle design, it's one of the best deals in the bourbon world — if you can find it.

Cedar Ridge Iowa Bourbon

Crafted in the heart of corn country and distilled to a higher proof before being bottled at 80 proof, Cedar Ridge is a balanced, flavorful bourbon. A unique herbal quality highlights this whiskey and has helped it take home several gold medals in competitions over the past few years.

Wild Turkey Master's Keep Decades Bourbon

The second and latest release in the Wild Turkey Master's Keep collection is ready to consume, and it's another bourbon a great story that is blended masterfully. Wild Turkey Master's Keep Decades Bourbon celebrates Master Distiller Eddie Russell on his 35th anniversary at Wild Turkey. The son of bourbon baron Jimmy Russell, who he still distills with side by side, had to learn the bourbon business from the ground up starting in 1981 when he clocked in for his first day of work. Now, Eddie finally gets a share of the well-deserved spotlight with Decades, a blend of whiskies aged 10 to 20 years and bottled at 104 proof.

Old Rip Van Winkle 25 Year Old Bourbon

It's tough enough to get your hands on Van Winkle bourbons, and the latest, and oldest release from the Pappy distillers promises to be even more exclusive. Old Rip Van Winkle 25-Year-Old Bourbon was distilled in the spring and fall of 1989 and stored on lower levels of a metal warehouse built in 1935 at the Van Winkle family distillery. In 2002 the barrels found a new home at Buffalo Trace and in 2014 the juice was dumped into stainless steel tanks to halt the aging process. And now, it's ready for release. But only 11 barrels made the full trip, resulting in a mere 710 bottles. Each one is housed in a handmade glass decanter with bottle information, individual numbering, and a hand finished silver stopper. The special bottles reside in a handmade wooden box that comes with a bourbon certificate of authenticity, numbered and signed by Julian Van Winkle himself.

Buffalo Trace O.F.C. Bourbon

It should be no surprise that one of the rarest bourbons ever released comes from the fine folks at Buffalo Trace. Buffalo Trace O.F.C. Bourbon has been generously offered exclusively to non-profit organizations at no charge to help raise money for their causes. Out of the first release comes this bottle — one of only 100 — from 1980. Named after the O.F.C. Distillery christened by Colonel E.H. Taylor back in 1870, this nearly 40-year-old bourbon is not only special juice, but it also gets special packaging. The lead-free crystal bottle is a replica of an O.F.C. decanter dating back to the early 1900s and features detailed fluting engraved into the mold. Then shoulder facets are cut by glass artisans, and then the bottle is manually polished before inlaying cut copper lettering. This bottle is up for auction from Living Jazz, launched in 1984 with a mission to empower children and adults, inspire creative growth, and unite diverse communities through music.

Old Ripy Bourbon

As the bourbon renaissance continues, more and more forgotten brands are being dusted off and revived. The latest is Old Ripy Bourbon, a brand created by Irish immigrant James Ripy that was made in Lawrenceburg, KY up until 1950. The new iteration of Old Ripy is distilled at Wild Turkey, which just happens to be the same location of the former Old Ripy distillery. It's a combination of 8-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon with other whiskeys of varying ages, up to 12 years old. It's bottled at 104 proof in smaller than normal 375ml bottles, which is a nod to the pre-Prohibition period of bourbon making. Old Ripy is also one of two new releases in the Whiskey Barons collection, which was established to honor and recreate historically significant Bourbons lost after Prohibition.

Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style Bourbon

The third release in the Whiskey Row series from Old Forester is the best of the bunch. Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style Bourbon pays tribute to a period in American history where the only distilleries licensed to produce bourbon did it for medicinal purposes, and had to have a federal license. Brown-Forman, owner of the Old Forester brand, was one of the few making bourbon during Prohibition, and this release reflects the style that would have been distilled and bottled during the era. Bourbon distilled during Prohibition was required to be bottled at 100 proof, but 1920 arrives at 115 proof to account for the angel's share that an aged bourbon from the time period would represent.

Barrell Bourbon New Year

We can't think of a better way to kick 2016 out the door than by sipping on some cask strength bourbon. And New Year from Barrell Bourbon might be the most appropriate spirit to have on hand to help usher in 2017. 5, 7, 8, 9, and 13-year old Straight Bourbons from Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee were blended to make this limited edition release that clocks in at 117 proof. Of course, all of the releases in the Barrell line are bottled at cask strength, but this special blend provides loads of flavor and a long finish to enjoy before, during, and after the new year begins.

Rebel Yell Single Barrel Bourbon

Originally part of the Stitzel-Weller bourbon family — known for their groundbreaking line of wheated bourbons, the Rebel Yell brand knows a thing or two about a high-quality wheater. Rebel Yell Single Barrel Bourbon is the latest release from the brand name that started all the way back in 1849, and contains a wheated bourbon recipe, which uses the sweeter wheat grain instead of the more typically used rye. It's aged for a full 10 years in new, charred, American oak barrels and packaged with the trusted Rebel Yell name at 100 proof.

Barrell Bourbon

When it comes to bourbon, nothing matters more than the juice itself. That's why Barrell Bourbon, while not a traditional distiller, leads the pack amongst the new school whiskey companies. Each batch of Barrell Bourbon is a little different, as they choose from straight bourbon from Kentucky and Tennessee. What doesn't vary is that each batch is bottled at a barrel strength that is typically north of 120 proof. Each one is also quite limited and so far, each has been nothing short of delicious. The latest batch — #7 — was distilled and aged for 5 years in Char #4 American white oak barrels in Tennessee before being bottled at 122.4 proof.

Four Roses Elliott's Select Bourbon

It's never easy to take over for a bourbon legend. But when Jim Rutledge stepped down after 49 years at the helm as master distiller at Four Roses last year, someone had to step in and fill those big shoes. Four Roses Elliott's Select Bourbon is the first limited release from new master distiller Brent Elliott, and while it won't make Rutledge fans forget his legacy, it's a great start for Elliott. Bottled at barrel strength after aging for 14 years, Elliott's Select uses the OESK recipe — one of ten that Four Roses produces. A delicious progression for Four Roses, only 10,000 hand numbered bottles will be available.

Knob Creek 2001 Bourbon is the oldest Knob Creek release to date, spending 14 years in barrels before being bottled at 100 proof. 2001 was also the year that current master distiller Fred Noe had the torched passed to him from his father, the late Booker Noe.

It's had a handful of releases already, but this is the first time it's been bottled at cask strength.

John E. Fitzgerald Very Special Reserve Bourbon

Usually, if you're talking about a wheated bourbon from the now extinct Stitzel-Weller Distillery, it's Pappy Van Winkle that you're referencing. But John E. Fitzgerald Very Special Reserve Bourbon fits that same criteria, and might garner the same attention as well. Heaven Hill acquired 12 barrels from the old distillery when they bought the Old Fitzgerald line, and those barrels were aged for 20 years before they produced a very limited 3,000 bottles of bourbon. Each of these hard to find bottles are housed in a handmade wooden box with die-cut keyholes and hinged doors that close with magnets — increasing the appeal for this sought after product even more.

If Wild Turkey Master Distiller Jimmy Russell ever does retire, it'll be tough to top the tribute that fills the bottles of Russell's Reserve 1998 Bourbon. His son, and fellow Master Distiller Eddie Russell set this bourbon aside back in 1998 with his father in mind, and while Jimmy has yet to stop working after 61 years at the helm, the bourbon is ready for consumption right now. It aged gracefully in the Wild Turkey timber rickhouses and was bottled at 102.2 proof when Eddie deemed it ready. But only 23 barrels, or a little over 2,000 bottles will ever see the light of day, making this a turkey worth hunting.

Booker's Center Cut Bourbon

You probably already know that Booker's Bourbon is one of the better choices in the increasingly popular world of barrel proof bourbons. But Center Cut takes things up a notch, not only because it was pulled from a part of the rack house that the late Booker Noe preferred, but also because it was specially chosen by an exclusive group of whiskey experts. Tipping the scales at 127.2 proof, Beam's Master Distiller Fred Noe headed up the tasting panel, and the results are a batch of Booker's that will likely be in greater demand than any other that is released this year.

1792 Sweet Wheat Bourbon

Rye whiskey and rye influenced bourbons are fantastic drinks, but some prefer a sweeter taste when it comes to whiskey. 1792 Sweet Wheat Bourbon replaces the often used rye grain in their bourbon mashbill with wheat, giving it a softer, sweeter flavor profile. The new 1792 expression was distilled in 2007 — and then aged, and bottled at the Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown, KY. Wheated bourbons became famous thanks to the Pappy Van Winkle line — and while this isn't that, it's accessible, affordable and worthy of your booze dollars.
