Show notes
If Chris is here with six or so bottles, usually it's a casual episode. But someone let Chris team up with Dan and suddenly we have more than double the number of bottles. That's because we're trying fortified wines along with the spirits that they are traditionally barrel-finished in. It's arguably the best way to understand how a cask influences a spirit.

Tasting blind is the only unbiased way to determine the best items on our shelves. This past spring, the Whiskey Hotline undertook a companywide blind bourbon tasting tournament to determine the best bourbon on our shelves without bias. Expert spirits staff from each of our 46 stores were brought together for a multiple round blind tasting that included 64 unique bourbons. We narrowed it down to 16, then tasted the top 4, determining the 4 best bourbons on our shelves tasted blind. This week on Barrel to Bottle we got to taste the top four.
