Another quick hit on this one. I missed supporting the local distilleries, and it was good to get out to one for the first time since January. This was admittedly better than their grain to glass bourbon, but largely because part of the blend is sourced from Heaven Hill, and that nutty Elijah Craig profile really pops through. That being said, I feel like these Texas whiskies (the bourbons in particular) don’t hold up so well when they’re proofed down. It really exposes their age. Cask strength may be the way to go if you’re hunting down a Texas bourbon.

@WhiskeyLonghorn Yeah, good point lol
@ContemplativeFox that could be the tagline for 90% of craft distilleries...
It'll be interesting to see if we have some older releases coming out in a few years.
