Rebecca Creek 16 Year Old Single Barrel Bourbon Review
A surprise release of MGP bourbon at an equally surprising age
Whether it’s whiskey reviews, scotch whisky reviews, rye whiskey, wheat whiskey, straight whiskey, Tennessee Whiskey or American Whiskey, we love it all and cover it all right here.
Our one true passion is to find the whiskies that are both common and uncommon and break them down into fun and relatable whiskey reviews that give you the background of a particular bottle as well as what to expect.
No two palates are the same, but if you find yourself nodding in agreement to what you’re reading, then stick with us!
We promise to update with new content as much as possible and to also give you the most in-depth news that we can.
Based out of Indianapolis, Indiana, we’re close enough to the epicenter of bourbon (that would be Kentucky) that we can take the pulse of the trends and new releases as soon as we catch whiff of them.
