Sour Mashed!

We’ve ordered Buffalo Trace Bourbon for almost a year to no avail but after some wheeling and dealing we were finally able to get our hands on a case. This bourbon is exceptionally smooth but full of complexity. While the grain bill is a trade secret, you can almost certainly thank a healthy amount of rye for the character. Caramel, vanilla, oak, grassy mineral leather… Is that a Gimme Coffee description? That’s probably why I dig it. In any case, it makes a mighty fine Mint Julep and a mighty interesting Manhattan. These drinks take some time to do right, so come in early for some tasty traditional and not so traditional preparations.
