Back in mid-July, we received an email from Colorado based PR firm, Backbone Media, announcing the release of two new bottle sizes for Tincup American Whiskey. In addition to the standard issue 750ml bottle, this past summer, Tincup released the Nugget size bottle which holds 375ml and the Motherlode […]
What you see in the above photos is a whiskey which comes packaged in a bottle made to look like a bar of gold. Not surprisingly, the name of this whiskey is The Original Gold Bar Premium Blend, and it just so happens to hail from the city […]
On Thursday, June 7, 2018, the good people of the Jewish Whisky Company once again hosted the “Mother of all Whisky Events”, the NYC Whisky Jewbilee. This would be the seventh time that this event would descend upon Midtown Manhattan, and while the main event began at 7PM […]
What you see up above are photos of Islay’s very own Kilchoman Distillery that were taken by the West Coast Office (WCO) during his Single Cask Nation tour of Scotland in 2015. As I’m sure I’ve mentioned in previous posts, Scotland (Islay in particular) is a Top 5 […]

Labor Day has passed us by and the kids are back in school, but that doesn’t mean that summer is completely over. According to MY calendar, it doesn’t end until September 22nd at 4:01PM EST, which of course means that we still have some warm days ahead. Days […]
Whisky Jewbilee VI was a roaring success in New York City not more than a few weeks ago. The Boys of the Jewish Whisky Company bring the fun o’ plenty and a smorgasbord of Kosher chow AND new whisky like their own new retail line, Westland’s Garryana 2017, […]
This isn’t our first trip down the Kilchoman Loch Gorm road. Back in September of 2016, we published a review of this whisky along with a dessert idea that was inspired by a West Coast Office Tweet which paired Islay whisky with vanilla ice cream and freshly cracked […]
