Bonus Sho(r)t - Star Trek Spirits Captain's Table Batch #2 + Distiller Interview!

When an unexpected parcel arrived in the mail room of the Whiskey Tangent Studios, we were a little puzzled but excited. And upon opening the package, our excitement mounted as we realized that the sample we thought we were getting, was actually the most beautiful whiskey-related thing we'd ever held in our hands. The octagonal black container is incredible, and the bottle with its surprise coin-containing stopper was even better. But, then we were like, hold up, how good is the whiskey going to be? Is the packaging just window dressing for a run-of-the-mill spirit? Or is it completely out of this world? (wink) Well, you know what do to find out!

Whiskey Sho(r)t - Bulleit American Single Malt QuickTaste

This was a complete surprise when it came out to very little fanfare back in February. We saw it on the Benash liquor store shelf and literally said "What the hell is that?! A new single malt?! From Bulleit?!" So, we bought it, and we were so exicted to try it, that we immediately opened it like kids on Christmas, and we really enjoyed it. But we were busy with the Madness Tournament, and deciced to put it away in the vault, vowing to do a QuickTaste of it at a later time. Well, now is finally that later time. So, what's the story behind this thing? And do we still feel the same way about it? Just click play to find out!
