What's the best place to unwind, away from the buzz of social media and bourbon events? This week, we share our rejuvenating family getaway to Kauai, complete with insider travel tips for boat tours and beach spots. As we return from our break, we update you on our regular schedule, including a short pause for a dental procedure, and lay out our plans for the future. Diving into the heart of bourbon, we spotlight the Barton 1792 Distillery, owned by Sazerac, and its remarkable bourbon offerings like 1792 and Chestnut Farms.

Ever wondered how different bourbons stack up against each other? Tune into our comparative tasting session where we explore bourbons ranging from Charlie's intense pick with its notable ethanol and licorice notes to the well-balanced 1792 Full Proof. We delve into the nuances between single barrels and expertly blended bourbons, praising those that provide a rich, buttery mouthfeel without overwhelming oakiness. We also give a shoutout to our favorite bourbons outside the foolproof category, including a standout 12-year bourbon.

Lovers of 1792 bourbon are in for a treat as we explore the various expressions of this brand, including the elusive Port Finish and the distinctive Sweet Wheat. We also shift our focus to Chestnut Farms' bottled in bond bourbon, known for its strong oak presence and complex flavors. As we discuss our upcoming distilling plans and personal anecdotes about home distilling, we also touch on the diverse landscape of local distilleries. Wrapping up, we highlight updates from the Scotchy Bourbon Boys community, encouraging you to check out our exclusive merchandise and connect with us on social media.
