Hidden Gem in Frankfort? J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery

Master the Art of Bourbon Blending: Our J. Mattingly Experience 🥃

Welcome back to Your Bourbon Journey! In Episode 55 of Bourbon Trail Tales and Tastes, we’re taking you inside the cellar at J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, for a deep dive into their legendary Master Blending Experience.

Join Wayne and Rebecca as we relive our visit to Distillery No. 58 on our journey. We go behind the scenes with our guide, Dakota, to thieve whiskey directly from the barrels and craft our own custom blends. From navigating mash bills and proofs to finding that perfect 116-proof sweet spot, we share the exact “50/30/20” formulas we used to create our anniversary bottles: “St. Patrick’s Day 2024” and “Luck of the Irish.”

In this episode, you’ll discover:

The Blending Process: How to use a whiskey thief and mix components for the perfect mouthfeel and viscosity.

Tasting Notes: A side-by-side comparison of our two-year-old “married” blends—one leaning floral and nutty, the other rich with dark cocoa and cinnamon.

Pro Tip: Why J. Mattingly is the perfect “double” to pair with your Buffalo Trace visit (it’s right across the street!).

The Personal Touch: A heartwarming story about the incredible hospitality and the “hat pins” that made this visit unforgettable.

Whether you’re a Certified Bourbon Steward or just starting your own bourbon journey, this blending experience is a must-do in Kentucky.

Tasting a 48-Year-Old Time Capsule: 1977 Crow Light Whiskey! 🕰️🥃

🤯 Prepare your taste buds for a journey through time! 🕰️ We’re cracking open a RARE 48-year-old bourbon! 🥃 Ever wondered what a 1977 Crow Light Whiskey tastes like?! 🤔 We did too!

Join us for this SPECIAL TASTING as we dive into a time capsule of whiskey history! 🤩 We snagged this incredible vintage bottle from the amazing Revival Vintage Spirits in Covington, KY! 🙌 We’ve been counting down the days to open this beauty and share our honest thoughts with you! 🎉

In this video, we’ll:

  • Uncover the fascinating history behind Crow Light Whiskey 📜
  • Take a look back at the groovy 70s advertising for Light Whiskey 📺
  • Show off some seriously cool vintage Old Crow collectibles! 😎
  • FINALLY! Explore the appearance 👀, savor the incredible aromas👃, and take that long-awaited FIRST SIP! 🤤
  • We’ll be sharing every single detail and our thoughts on how this unique whiskey holds up today. 🤔

💡 Did you know? Back in the 1970s, everyone was going crazy for lighter spirits like vodka! 🍸 So, the bourbon industry decided to shake things up and create “light whiskey”! Crow Light hit the scene in December 1972 with the catchy slogan “The whiskey that whispers,” trying to capture that lighter vibe. Light whiskey was distilled to super high proofs (think 160-190 proof!) to mellow out the flavor and then aged briefly in used bourbon barrels for just a hint of color and taste. That “whisper” was all about that subtle, easy-drinking profile! 😉

✨ Don’t miss this chance to experience a genuine taste of whiskey history with us! Hit play now! ▶️ Cheers! 🥂
