Dads Drinking Bourbon
Two dads from Nashville that trade their kids' bottles for whiskey bottles after bedtime.

Named after the founder of bourbon, Reverend Elijah Craig, this whiskey packs a 12 year age statement and is bottled at barrel proof without chill filtration. Three batches are put out every year, and this particular one is the first for 2023. Taking a closer look at the name A123, the “A” denotes that it is the first batch of the year, “1” is the month that it was released in (January), and “23” signifies the year it was released...
Still Austin sent us some of their flagship bourbon, named "The Musician." Directly from them: "Our new Straight Bourbon, affectionately known as “The Musician”, is made from 100% Texas-grown corn, rye and malted barley.

It took a combination of Southside pluck, oak-age...

The bourbon to stick in bottle ratio is 99.8% equivalent to that of bourbon in a 53-gallon barrel. Similar to a “Double Oaked” whiskey, this added step allows their bourbon to integrate with new oak for a second tim...
