92 points Whisky Advocate: "This expression offers an uncompromising note of brine-laden peat and iodine, with charcoal and sweeter fruit notes also present. The palate is equally out there, with old-fashioned fabric Band-Aids, bladderwrack seaweed, black pepper, smoldering peat, vanilla, caramel, and sweet oak. The finish is as big as everything else, with barbecue, iodine, and asphalt. Still a classic! (GS, Fall 2018)" 92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Look for a distinctly peaty aroma, with hints of smoked fish, bacon and mesquite. The palate shows peat sm...

Here's another stupendous cask from our friends at Wathen's. If you don't already know, Wathen's (bottled by father and son team Charles & Sam Medley) is one of the country's most well respected non-distillery producers. We refer to them as non-distillery producer rather than non-distiller producer because of course Charles Medley is one of Kentucky's most well respected distillers. He had decades of experience running the old Owensboro plant, before moving toward contract production. That means he's got a special relationship with his contracted produce...

This lovely little barrel of rye is one of the first single barrels from the beautiful Castle & Key distillery to make it to California. The work of the C&R team is second to none in the industry and even more impressive considering it was all done within the historic walls of the Old Taylor Distillery. Millions of dollars were spent refurbishing the facility and they've now got inarguably one of Kentucky's most picturesque. But the bucolic environs are not why we keep showing up at the ancient distillery, it's the wonderful whisky they distill. This sin...

Corazon "K&L Exclusive - Barrel #229" W.L. Weller Barrel Aged Anejo Tequila (750ml) (Previously $45)

The agave for these single barrels are all harvested from the single estate where this was distilled and once distilled are always rested for over a year. Each gives a unique expression of the barrel and the gorgeous spirit within. The process takes time and requires a leap of faith, but we know w...

The exceptional Tom's Foolery Distillery in Chagrin Falls, Ohio is easily one of the country's finest craft distillers. The tiny operation helmed by Tom and Lianne Herbruck and they specialize in using traditional methods to create innovative and exciting products. Using locally sourced grains and fruit the Herbruck's have now opened dedicated facility to the production of their excellent spirits, but when we met them, they were distilling on and old pot still in the shed behind their house.

Clyde May's "K&L Exclusive" Single Barrel #914 Indiana Straight Rye Whiskey (750ml) (Previously $55)
The Clyde May story is one of the most interesting and intriguing in the whisky world. A renowned Alabama moonshiner who perfected the art of distillation and became infamous for his apple flavored whiskey. The modern version of his recipe has been produced legally since 2001, but along with that the company has been buying and bottling straight bourbon for some time now. Like so many of the other independent bottlers of American Whiskey, they're working primarily with the great distillery in Lawrenceburg. While many of our bottlers have lovely bourbons ...

The Tom's Foolery Distillery outside of Cleveland is easily one of the most exciting craft distillers in the States. Tom Herbruck is a true distiller, who fell in love with the craft as a kid distilling his fathers wine as a hobby. When he began to take it seriously he made the incredibly prescient move to acquire a historically significant set up from the old Michter's Distillery in the Schaefferstown, PA. For several years, Tom distilled a variety of single barrels of various mashbills and was able to make a name for himself releasing some of the first...

Since 2002 Domaine Séailles is officially certified as organic in all of their wine and Armagnac production. They've foresworn chemicals pesticides and artificial fertilizers and instead opt for a biodynamic approach. While the brandies that have been made this way are still quite young by many Armagnac standards, they are lively, bright, and delicious in their own right (not to mention showing tremendous aging potential). If you're looking for a punchy young Armagnac with crystal-clear fruit and excellent pedigree, combined with a stewardship of the env...

While any Bourbon drinker worth her salt knows of the Four Roses recipe coding system designating mashbills and yeast type, most aren't aware of where that system actually came from. It was brought to Four Roses from Ross & Squibb (formerly Seagrams/MGP). The link between the two companies goes back to 1943 when Seagram's, owner of the Indiana facility for many years, purchased Four Roses and shifted that brands focus to the Japanese market. The bond between the two companies strengthened even further when Jim Rutledge came over to run Four Roses after d...

Smoke Wagon's first bonded whiskey, this unique rye is unusual for using the “barely rye” mashbill that's similar to certain Kentucky brands (Wild Turkey, Rittenhouse, Pikesville), which favor a 51% rye mashbill, with the difference being mostly corn, and 10-15% malted barley. This low-rye mashbill makes up the entire difference with corn, even though the much-lauded distillery in Lawrenceburg, where this is distilled, typically uses a 95% rye/5% malted barley mashbill. As with all Smoke Wagon products, this rye whisky is blended carefully by Aaron Chep...

Ortolan is a modern, distinctly Californian take on the historic Italian category of rosolio. This ancient category of liqueur was enjoyed in European courts from the 15th to 19th centuries as an aperitivo and digestíf, a lighter and more ethereal antecedent of amaros. Ortolan sustainably sources over thirty different varieties of freshly harvest heirloom roses from small farms in Southern California to make Ortolan. Each variety contributes its own scent, flavor, and hue to create an experience more complex than other rose flavored products: lifted note...

93 points Wine Enthusiast: "A honey hue and rich vanilla aroma mark this six-year-old rye whiskey. The palate nods to its 100% rye grain mash bill, opening with brisk cinnamon and allspice sparks that round into mellower vanilla and caramel midpalate, finishing long and spiced. Adding water brings more vanilla to the fore and adds a toasted grain note to the finish. *Top 100 Spirits of 2019* (KN)" (09/2019) Whisky Advocate: "A lively nose with scents of orange peel, wild strawberries, pepper spice, and herbal tea.

Whisky Advocate: "Licorice, leather, and balanced oak on the nose, with emerging notes of vanilla and cherry ice cream. Lots of spice and pleasant mustiness on the palate, along with chocolate, black cherry, and fresh-baked apple pie. This one is balanced and flavorful, with water bringing out red fruit, oatmeal cookies, and pepper spice. Good length on a finish of malted vanilla, café mocha, breakfast cereal, and almond. Solid and enjoyable. (DF, Winter-2021)" K&L Notes: This three-grain mash bill is composed of 56% rye, 33% corn, and 11% malted barley...

Created by certified Maestro Tequilero Guillermo Barroso Arnaud, El Pintor is an expression of Arnaud's quest to find balance between the art and science of tequila creation. Utilizing highland agave cooked in autoclaves for 10 hours, the clean steamed agave is then fermented with ancestral yeasts from the hacienda that's been cultivated for decades. The tequila is then slowly distilled on very small copper pot stills. The spirit rests in used bourbon barrels for between 3-4 years before a proprietary filtration processes is used to remove the subtle amb...
