Rich BeamsHOST
They buy whiskey from other distilleries.

They either bottle it as a single distillery, single barrel version, or they do blends kind of like Barrel Craft Spirits does.

Cody MillsHOST
I think we've been really impressed, honestly.
Cody MillsHOST

Garrett WelchHOST
Uh, Short Barrel.
Cody MillsHOST
Short Barrel too.
Cody MillsHOST
Short Barrel does incredible stuff.
Garrett WelchHOST
Short Barrel gets some good barrels.
Cody MillsHOST
Yeah, absolutely.

Short Barrel, and then when you talked about the Whiskey Blender, obviously the Whiskey Blender's making some incredible stuff.
Ryan CecilHOST
Yeah.
Ryan CecilHOST
I had a Barrell's apricot brandy, which I think it was a Canadian whiskey.
Ryan CecilHOST
It was really good, but I, I, I do love peach, but it's one of those things, like, they're so good and s- but they're sweet, rich.
Ryan CecilHOST
I'm like, "I only need one of them." They're g- great dessert pours.
JasonHOST
Okay, I'll stop now.
Anthony LimperosHOST
So the bottle, guys, that we have is the Barrel Bourbon Cigar Blend.
Anthony LimperosHOST
So the distillery on this, oh, yeah, is Barrel Craft Spirits in Louisville, Kentucky.
Anthony LimperosHOST
The bottle date is 2026.
Bob BookHOST
So if you don't want to call it a flavored whiskey, at the very least, it's an infused whiskey, and I think that's the, the part of the process that is really interesting to me, Brad.
Bob BookHOST
I am wondering, as we get into this, is this an attempt from Bardstown to try to steal a little bit of Barrell's thunder? You know, they've been trying to figure out where they're gonna land on the shelf at Bardstown.
Brad GHOST
Mm-hmm.
Bob BookHOST
They've introduced that sort of, like, basic line of Bardstown product.
Bob BookHOST
This seems like they're coming for Barrell Seagrass a little bit, Brad, your favorite whiskey of all time.
Brad GHOST
Yeah.
Brad GHOST
I, I mean, I think all whiskey companies are trying to figure out, okay, if the core Jack Daniel's, Evan William- Like, if the majority of the whiskey market is kinda taken up, where are we gonna stand out?
Bob BookHOST
Mm-hmm.
