Welcome back to Your Bourbon Journey! Today, Wayne and Rebecca are diving into two standout bottles picked straight from a recent Bourbon Trail day trip through NuLu in Louisville, Kentucky.
After stopping by The Vault (WhistlePig) and The Last Refuge (Heaven’s Door), we finished our tour at Louisville Rickhouse (part of the Nashville Barrel Company family). We did a single barrel flight and each got to pick a bottle to bring home. Wayne went sweet and balanced with a single barrel honey finish, while Rebecca went heavy and robust with an ultra-limited experimental double oak!
Join us as we crack both open, break down the tasting notes, discuss whether they drink their proof, and decide if they’re worth a spot on your bar.
