This caught me by suprise, not that I thought we weren't making great #bourbon, but apparently VinePair named Devils Creek California Straight Bourbon Whiskey as THE bourbon to take home from California 😳
I am humbled, honored, and just feeling really grateful. I gave up a twenty year career in network administration six years ago to pursue this full time with family. Armed with no knowledge of the industry and minimal home brewing and #distilling experience, somehow we've bootstrapped a small distillery that is making great #whiskey
So go take that leap, and don't let your dreams be memes.

Fun fact, the mint julep has a long history as medicinal drink, and was also frequently enjoyed as breakfast cocktail to take the edge off before going to work a manual labor job where you would get the shit kicked out of you all day for a buck.

The angels share is a natural part of the barrel aging process, and how much you lose depends on your enviroment.

I run the same 72/18/10 mashbill as our main bourbon mashbill, only difference is I use malted rye for that 18%

GM! Did you know seasonal climate affects distillation? I embrace this seasonality when it comes to producing our whiskey.

If you're a whiskey enthusiast, you need to be exploring craft products. There's still some garbage out there, but you will find things that will blow your mind.

For real! Just went through some barrel samples for blending last weekend and had a bubblegum rye! One of these days I'll get one out on a single barrel so we can share the deliciousness.

GM #thirstythursday
What am I looking for when selecting single barrel picks?
Single barrel whiskey bottlings source from a single aging barrel, resulting in unique flavor characteristics distinct from blended varieties.

The angel's share—the portion of whiskey lost to evaporation during aging—highlights how value diminishes gradually, echoing the effects of inflation on wealth. Just as the angel's share reduces the quantity of whiskey in barrels, inflation diminishes the real value of currency, affecting the purchasing power of savings and investments over time.

GM #whiskey production starts early. I run a 180 gallon cooker and still, and today I've got a new bourbon mash to cook https://image.nostr.build/a70a7f03b1b3110fae530eb88d7f2b4e0dbd54f8a4423af9b33545296da2a588.jpg and a fermented one stripping on the still.
Have great day!

There are some retailers who will ship to other states. For example Great American Craft carries my bourbon, and working on Seelbachs. None of them take bitcoin yet.

I am working on it, although, until there is national direct to consumer (DTC) reform, we're imited to shipping in state only.

In case I wasn't clear, that's an endorsement for day drinking, responsibly of course. Also, not a physician.

Thanks! Community seems amazing and it's cool that there are different clients. Going back and forth between Primal and Amethyst--each seems to have their strengths.

Thank you! I cant take credit for the video, although that is me, its clipped from a podcast interview. If the #nostr plebs want to learn more though, I'm happy to oblige.

Any amount of alcohol consumed immediatly prior to sleep will affect sleep quality. Best practice would be to finish consumption far enough ahead that your liver has a chance to metabolize it prior to sleeping.
That being said, cleaner alcohols (ie vodka), lack the cocktail of organic compounds that things like whiskey have and have the reputation of being less impactful afterwards. They also lack the flavor, so where's the fun in that?

Hello #nostr my name is Clayton and I make whiskey professionally. Barrel aging spirits is a low time preference activity that helps shift your mindset in much the same way that #bitcoin does.

I'm a firm believer in low barrel entry proof, and always use it for my products.
