Frank August Small Batch Bourbon
"The Beauty Bourbon"
Frank August Small Batch Bourbon, the 2025 IWSC Bourbon of the Year, Is a Kentucky sourced and distilled bourbon with an undisclosed mashbill and being a straight bourbon it is at least 4 years old. It cines in at 100 proof.I picked it up from @midvalleywine for $67.
It cones in a artsy bottle and is light auburn in color.
On the nose it has aromas of apple, caramel, orchard fruits and citrus.
The palate it is vanilla caramel that evolves to a citrus at the mid palate to green apple, nut bread, cinnamon and pepper.
The finish is midlength with that green apple, a hint of brown sugar, citrus cinnamon and oak. The hug is modest for 100 proof.
It is a good sipper but also a few drops of water pbrings out the apple and sweetness but still allows for the citrus note to stand out.
In cocktails it made a good Manhattan and nice old fashioned. It was also good in a Sazerac.
The drawback to this bottle is the price. There are much better pours in this price range and below it has some complexity but not enough to justify the price.
Considering all this Frank August Small Batch is 100% Blue Pig approved!

Decided I’d go for an old fashioned tonight with a bartenders favorite, Old Grandad. High proof and good flavor punches through the bitters and added sugars without being overpowering.
I decided to use Chat GPT for an old fashioned recipe using ingredients I had in the house and it does NOT disappoint!

Review #22 Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Heritage Barrel
Distillery: Jack Daniel
ABV/Proof: 50/100
Age Statement: 7 years and up
Mash Bill: 80% Corn 8% Rye 12% Malted Barely Toasted Barrel
*Barrel Entry 7-17-17 Bottling 7-18-25 Barrel#25-04187
After making special appearances in 2018 and 2019, it’s back in 2025 and this time it’s here to stay. Not only has it returned, but it’s also set to become part of Jack Daniel’s core lineup in the near future. As with any new Jack release, the buzz is real, with some fans getting lucky and others wondering where everyone is finding it.
Nose: Burnt sugars right away, subtle signature banana, hint of baking spice, vanilla, sweet caramel, and oak.
Palate: There’s two things I find that stand out above anything else on this, sweet caramel throughout and vanilla cake frosting. I also find mild pepper spice, burnt brown sugar, banana and a strong bold oak presence.
Finish: A pleasant pepper spice that isn’t overpowering, just enough to complement a great finish. Layers of caramel for days, with tobacco and oak. I do find it to be slightly drying.
I would rate this out 8.5 of 10.
Jack’s done it again. This pour definitely lives up to the hype and is well worth picking up, but it’s not worth chasing or paying an inflated secondary price out of FOMO. Cheers!

Beautiful night for a pour of Four Roses single barrel store puck.
Definitely recommend! Cheers!
SEC football, grilled lamb chops, and Eagle Rare 12 Year. 🏈🥃🔥
Rich caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak on the nose — smooth cherry and brown sugar on the palate with a warm, lingering finish. Perfect pour for a fall Saturday under the lights.
