Koval Single Barrel Millet Whiskey
Koval Single Barrel Millet Whiskey is a unique, organic, and kosher whiskey made from 100% millet, a gluten-free grain. It is known for its fruity aromas, particularly notes of exotic fruits, and a delicate, elegant profile. The whiskey is aged in new charred American oak barrels and bottled without chill filtration, showcasing the natural flavors of the millet. Tasting notes suggest a biscuity, grain-led flavor profile with hints of licorice spice, caramel sweetness, and warm cereal flavors. It also features an aftertaste of apple and oak.

Independently Owned
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Nose: Vanilla, smoke, star anise, licorice, and hints of green apple and shortbread, according to one review.
Palate: Vanilla, honey, floral notes, licorice/anise, clove, caramel, allspice, and the distinctive flavor of millet grain. Some reviewers have noted a "funky" sweetness balanced by strong licorice notes.
Finish: Slight burn, medium smoky dryness, and a lingering warmth. Some describe it as a dry, oaky, and faintly smoky finish.

Jim Beam Old Grand-Dad 80 Proof
Basil Hayden Sr. - known as Old Grand-Dad to the generations that followed - made bourbon the way he wanted. He went against the traditional “grain” of the time and chose to distill his bourbon with a higher percentage of rye. This way of crafting bourbon was likely something he handed down to his son. And in turn, his grandson. That was Colonel R.B. Hayden who would justly name his bourbon after his Old Grand-Dad. The recipe today remains inspired by Basil's original with complex flavors and an unmistakable spiciness. First bottled in 1882, very little has changed about it. And that's the only way we'd have it.

Nose: Light cinnamon accompanied by vanilla, caramel, and a trace of baking spices are evident, but discreet.
Palate: Baking spices and a touch of cinnamon coalesce, forming a spicy base. A familiar caramel note offers a contrasting sweetness, accompanied by light apple.
Finish: As the baking spice and cinnamon dissipate, a sweet brown sugar flavor develops. The sweetness is accented by traces of apricot and oak, which quickly dissipate back to a lingering light spice.
