E116 - J.T. Meleck Louisiana Handcrafted Rice Whiskey
Listen now
Description
Rice Whiskey? Really? Is this some kind of joke? Our partners over at bourbonoutfitter.com surprised us and sent this bottle so you know that we had to give it a try. Seeking something unique to do with their rice crop, J.T. Meleck Distillers came up with the idea to first make a rice vodka and then quickly moved on to making whiskey. Coming in at 122.5 proof, this 100% rice whiskey was aged 5 years in a 53 gallon new charred oak barrel, following a process that is very similar to the way that our beloved bourbon is made. Join us this week as we go into uncharted territory with tasting this rice whiskey. Also, we elaborate a bit more on our partnership with Bourbon Outfitter and talk about are usual life happenings. Enjoy the pudding...I mean...whiskey. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky TW: https://twitter.com/themashupky Partnership Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!
