  • 63: Harmony in the glass pt. 2 Celebrity Whiskey Edition
    May 18 2024
    We are back with more music and whiskey. Today we dive into 3 whiskies and see if celebrity whiskey can be good. badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3 https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== And today Whiskeydecisions.beehive.com Celebrity liquor brands are a real gray area when it comes to endorsements. As whiskey grows more popular, and more celebrities hop on the bandwagon, it can be hard to distinguish who’s just taking a paycheck, and who cares about what you’re drinking. But the good news is that increasingly, the big names attached to these bottles really care about the brand and the people who drink it. Breaking Bad stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, who recently announced their new Dos Hombres mezcal, are just the latest in a series of famous people taking time out of their artistic careers to make artful beverages. What happens when a heavy metal band makes a whiskey? It’s certainly not a quiet process. The Blackened American Whiskey is pummeled with low-hertz sound waves from a Metallica-curated playlist. It might sound like a marketing ploy, but distillers insist the sonic-enhancement process drives the whiskey deeper into the wood of the barrel where it picks up extra flavor. As for the tasting notes, expect honey, cinnamon, allspice, and some lingering apricot. New year, new you, right? Okay, by mid-January a bit of the luster has worn off those shiny new resolutions. In fact, National Today says that January 17 is actually the official Ditch New Year's Resolution Day. Still, even if all your grand plans to walk 5 miles a day, save half your paycheck, and subside off nothing but kale, quinoa, and spring water have come to naught, that doesn't mean you can't make some revised resolutions that will be both easier and more fun to follow. Like, how about you simply resolve to try a few new things? This is hardly likely to hurt, particularly if you choose things you already enjoy, such as sampling a few new bourbons. Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey Heaven’s Door and retailers across the country selected barrels that vary in age, mashbill, and warehousing locations, in order to select their own Cask Strength Single Barrel Bourbon.​This limited release will be hand numbered and adorned with our partners name, offering a distinctive experience. 750 ML, 49.5% ABV (99 PROOF) A blend of 4-5 yr. old straight rye and straight bourbon mashed, fermented, distilled and aged at the Cedar Ridge Distillery. Direct shipping is available in select markets. Unfortunately we do not ship to the states of AK, AL, HI, ID, MI, MS, OK, UT. Mashbill: 51% Corn, 35% Malted Rye, 14% Malted Barley “Think cinnamon, clove, butter and oak. As it hits the palate, it coats it with this goodness, buttery almost, dripping down the side of the cheeks and warms all throughout. There’s a comfort here, cornbread-like, with notes of fried apple pie, apricot and macaroon. It finishes medium to long with a hint of bananas foster.” WAIT AND BLEED Ingredients: 2 oz No. 9 Reserve Whiskey 1 oz Sweet Vermouth 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters Equipment: Mixing glass Stirring spoon Strainer Chilled cocktail glass Instructions: Fill a mixing glass with ice cubes. Pour 2 ounces of No. 9 Reserve Whiskey into the mixing glass. Add 1 ounce of Sweet Vermouth to the glass. Add 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters to the mixture. Stir the ingredients gently but thoroughly using a stirring spoon for about 30 seconds to chill and combine them. Place a strainer over a chilled cocktail glass and strain the mixture into the glass. Optionally, garnish with a orange twist or cherry if desired. Sip and savor the bold and balanced flavors of Wait and Bleed. Enjoy responsibly!

    Natterjack Irish whiskey was born of a quest for adventure, to leave the beaten track and create a new one for ourselves.


    As a group of pioneering spirits, driven by a passion to make whiskey, we left all we knew behind to create something different, to build something.


    Independent of industry shackles and corporate ownership has been liberating, but it has not been easy getting here. Building something great takes mettle, sweat and an ounce of terror…


    You’ll taste the true authenticity of adventure and fear in our whiskey. Live Deliberately is our mantra, and that is what we set out to do every day.


    We set out to make new whiskey traditions for a generation that is challenging the status quo. We stand on the shoulders of giants to create something interesting, adventurous and new.


    Natterjack is the result of our adventure - an adventure that we are still on, and like any good adventure, it is full of twists and turns and has a hero you can believe in at its core - the Natterjack toad.


    Introducing Natterjack Toad.
    It’s an intriguing character.
    Its distinctive yellow stripe sets it apart from other toads. While all around it are hopping, it walks. It chooses its own course.

    With a call that can be heard from two kilometres away, you will hear it before you see it, it’s not shy. The only toad native to Ireland, a tendency to roam and love of a story shared are buried deep in its DNA. Like the Irish, it travels well, and is shaped by the places it goes and people it meets along the way.

    What better namesake for our whiskey. Join it on the journey, everyone is welcome. You never know where you may end up.

    OUR STORY

    Our mission is to distill and deliver classic Pennsylvania Rye spirits following over 200 years of American distilling tradition. Working with our community and giving back to the whiskey-loving public is a big part of what truly keeps Dad’s Hat “Pennsylvania Proud”.


    Our Heritage

    Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey is truly America’s original whiskey. In the 18th century, many Pennsylvania farmers were using their surplus rye grain to distill homemade whiskey.


    RYE HISTORY IN THE MAKING


    American farmers saw homemade distilling as their right and when, in 1791, the new United States Federal Government imposed a whiskey tax these same farmers threatened to secede from the union. This incident, known as the Whiskey Rebellion, was obviously not successful, but it was surely an indication of how important rye whiskey was to our country’s early history. Pennsylvania rye was known not just for the independent nature of its makers, but also for the quality of the product itself.



    WHISKEY REVOLUTION


    As early as 1810, Pennsylvania’s distillers were making over 6 million gallons of rye whiskey annually. Throughout the 1800’s the size and reputation of Pennsylvania’s rye whiskey producers continued to grow. By the end of the 1800s individual distilleries in Pennsylvania were making hundreds of thousands, and some over a million gallons of whiskey per year. Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey was prized across the United States and around the world.



    DISAPPEARING ACT


    Through the early part of the 20th century, rye whiskey continued to enjoy great success. Unfortunately, 1920 brought the passage of the 18th Amendment and Prohibition, which was a disaster for Pennsylvania’s rye whiskey makers. To fill the void during the 1920s bootleggers made a hastily contrived, and poorly made, blended substitute that was called rye whiskey. After Prohibition Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey and its distillers never fully recovered from the damage.



    ALL IN THE FAMILY


    Rye whiskey was a particular specialty served at the Mihalich family’s tavern in Monessen, PA. As a child, Dad’s Hat Founder Herman Mihalich lived with his family above the bar, and both his father and grandfather were fond of the all-American spirit. Inspired by a 2006 story about the reemergence of rye, Mihalich, along with his friend John Cooper, would later go on to found Mountain Laurel Spirits in 2011 in Bristol becoming the first Pennsylvania distillery to make rye whiskey since 1990.



    BRING ON THE WHISKEY REVIVAL!


    Our mission is to distill and deliver classic Pennsylvania Rye spirits following over 200 years of American distilling tradition. After spending several decades in the wilderness, Rye Whiskey has been rediscovered by whiskey lovers. Dad’s Hat supports local charitable events and embraces our Pennsylvania heritage. Our distillery in Bristol, Bucks County is located just five miles from where the Philadelphia Pure Rye Whiskey Distilling Company was located until 1920 in Eddington, PA. We are very pleased to be a part of renewing the proud tradition of fine Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey for years to come.
