🥃 Transatlantic Whiskey Flight: Flaviar Advent Calendar Days 19-21 Reveal!

Buckle up, whiskey lovers! ✈️ We are boarding Flaviar Airlines for Episode 7 of our 2025 Whiskey Advent Calendar journey. Today, we’re taking a high-stakes transatlantic flight to taste three distinct spirits from Dublin, Los Angeles, and Seattle.

In this episode, Wayne and Rebecca dive into a “Triple Threat” lineup, pitting traditional Irish smoothness against bold West Coast innovation. Will the mythical Finvara cast a spell on us? Can the newcomer Lodestar balance high-rye bourbon with single malt? And does Woodinville’s Port Finish live up to the hype?

We’re breaking down the nose, the palate, and the finish for each dram to let you know which ones are “must-buys” and which ones might be a “skip.”

Featured Whiskeys Today:

  1. Finvara The King’s Gambit (Day 19) – A triple-distilled Irish classic aged in Bourbon and Sherry casks.
  2. Lodestar American Whiskey (Day 20) – A 2024 newcomer from LA blending High-Rye Bourbon and American Single Malt.
  3. Woodinville Straight Bourbon Port Finish (Day 21) – A Washington powerhouse finished in Portuguese Ruby Port pipes.

Subscribe for the Final Leg! Don’t miss the conclusion of our 24-day flight.

Enjoyed the flight? Drop a comment below: Which of these three would you reach for first—the Irish, the LA Blend, or the Port Finish? 🥃👇

Tasting Wenzel Toasted Bourbon: Hidden Gem from Kentucky

/ bourbonjourney / Leave a comment

Is This Your New “Winter Cozy” Bourbon? 🥃 Wenzel Toasted Barrel Proof Review

Happy Friday! Today we’re diving into a bottle from Wenzel Whiskey, the first distillery to open in downtown Covington, Kentucky, in over a century. We’ve been visiting these guys for months, and after two incredible blending experiences, we finally cracked open the Wenzel Toasted Barrel Proof Batch #01.

Is this the “sophisticated s’more” we’ve been waiting for? Between the dark mocha notes and that rich, roasty hazelnut profile, this 111.8 proof bottle is making a serious run for our Whiskey of the Month.

In this video, we break down the history of Wenzel (located in an awesome repurposed Packard automotive building!), their unique blending process, and why this specific toasted expression stands out from the crowd.

📍 Visit Wenzel Whiskey

If you’re near Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky, Wenzel is a must-visit on The B-Line. Location: 15 Tobacco Alley / 412 Madison Ave, Covington, KY. Pro Tip: Don’t miss the blending experience!

/ bourbonjourney / Leave a comment

✈️ Global Whiskey Flight Review! Flaviar Advent Calendar 2025 Days 4, 5, & 6 | Chicken Cock, Oaklore, Kujira Kyojin 

Welcome back, Travelers, for Episode Two of our Flaviar Whiskey Advent Calendar 2025 journey! We’re strapping in for an exciting “two-continental tasting flight,” comparing America’s bourbon heritage with an exotic leap across the globe.

In this episode, we unlock Days 4, 5, and 6 of the calendar, tasting three wildly different spirits:

  1. Day 4: Chicken Cock Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (100 Proof) – A Prohibition legacy spirit from Bardstown, KY, with notes of cinnamon red hot, caramel, and nuttiness. Is the “pre-prohibition style” a hit?
  2. Day 5: OaklLore Four Grain Bourbon Whiskey (92 Proof) – A groundbreaking blend of four grains (corn, rye, wheat, barley) aged in the ideal climate of North Carolina’s Piedmont region. Find out why this balanced bourbon is described as a “floral bakery.”
  3. Day 6: Kujira Kyojin Okinawa Whisky (80 Proof) – A truly unique rice-based Japanese whisky from Okinawa, Japan, aged in American white oak. We discover fascinating tropical, sweet & sour, and floral/roselike notes thanks to its special Indica Rice and black Koji berries fermentation.

Join Wayne and Rebecca on Your Bourbon Journey for an in-depth, country-to-country tasting review! 

Which whiskey will be the best international pour? Buckle up and Cheers! 🥃

Cigar Blend Bourbon: Is Buzzard’s Roost the BEST

/ bourbonjourney / Leave a comment

🥃 Buzzard’s Roost Double Oak Cigar Blend Bourbon Review | The Ultimate Cigar Pairing Whiskey?

Welcome to Your Bourbon Journey! Wayne and Rebecca are diving into one of the most exciting, limited-edition releases of 2025: the Buzzard’s Roost Double Oak Cigar Blend Straight Bourbon Whiskey!

Released for the Kentucky Bourbon Festival (KBF), this 6-year, 105-proof high-rye bourbon (60% Corn, 36% Rye) uses Buzzard’s Roost’s proprietary double oak process—a secondary maturation in their custom, lightly-charred, heavily-toasted barrels. This technique is designed specifically to enhance the pairing experience with a fine cigar.

On the Nose & Palate: We found intense notes of confectionary sweetness, oak, and a beautiful, non-overpowering campfire smokiness. The finish delivers lovely coffee notes that make this a fantastic pour on its own, but we discuss why this profile is perfectly engineered for a premium cigar pairing!

The company’s co-founder and master blender, Jason Brauner (also of The Bourbon Bistro), definitely nailed it with this limited-time offer. Did this bottle live up to the hype? Watch our full review to see why we’re fans of Buzzard’s Roost and why this might be their best release yet!

This is the oldest release ever from Starlight Distillery in Borden, Indiana, and it’s a bottle they’ve been waiting for since they first tasted a sample at a Repeal Dinner almost a year ago!

Pendergast & Tom’s Town: KC’s Best Whiskeys?

/ bourbonjourney / Leave a comment

Welcome to the grand finale of our Kansas City Whiskey series! In this final installment, we’re taking a deep dive into the spirited and rebellious history of Tom’s Town Distilling Co.

Uncovering Kansas City’s Prohibition-Era Past Named after the infamous political boss Tom Pendergast, this distillery is a tribute to the “Paris of the Plains” and the city’s defiant history. We’ll explore how Tom’s Town, founded in 2015 by David Epstein and Steve Revare, has revitalized the Crossroads Arts District by embracing the complex and compelling story of “Boss Tom.”

Tasting Flight: A Tom’s Town Whiskey Review Get ready for an in-depth tasting and review of four incredible spirits from Tom’s Town Distilling:

🥃 Pendergast’s Royal Gold Whiskey: This is not your average bourbon! Finished in 14-year-old ruby port casks, this 90-proof bourbon delivers rich aromas of caramelized sugar, oak, and stone fruits. We’ll taste if it lives up to the legend of the original “Royal Gold” brand that Pendergast himself sold to a thirsty public.

🥃 Limited Release Finished Bourbon: A true gem! This 5-year-old, 94-proof Straight Bourbon Whiskey is finished in Pinot Noir casks from Ayres, promising a unique and delicious flavor profile.

🥃 Tom’s Town Straight Rye Whiskey: Distilled in Kansas City from locally sourced grains and aged for at least 4 years, this Straight Rye is Bottled in Bond at 100 proof. With a robust and earthy profile, notes of caramel, toasted bread, spice, and dark chocolate, this is a must-try for any rye whiskey fan.

🥃 The Machine Series Half Baked: Prepare for the unexpected! Distilled from Lagunitas Lagunator beer and aged in white oak barrels, this is a truly daring and unique whiskey. We’ll explore its notes of bright grapefruit, saltwater taffy, and baking spices, and see if this adventurous spirit lives up to the hype.
