363: Jack Daniel's New Tanyard Hill Rye & Heritage Barrel with Chris Fletcher
lundi 29 décembre 2025 • Durée 38:06
In this episode of The Bourbon Lens Podcast, Jake and Scott sit down with Chris Fletcher, Master Distiller at Jack Daniel's Distillery, to discuss several of the most exciting recent and upcoming releases from the historic Tennessee distillery.
The conversation covers the debut of Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Heritage Barrel Tennessee Whiskey, a new year-round offering built around barrels matured at the distillery's highest elevations. Chris walks through the unique Heritage Barrel program, how lower barrel entry proof and warehouse placement influence flavor, and why this release reflects Jack Daniel's traditional approach to whiskey making.
Jake and Scott also dive into the latest Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Special Release Tanyard Hill Rye, a barrel proof Tennessee rye aged in one of the distillery's earliest barrelhouses located atop the historic Tanyard Hill site. The group discusses how location-driven maturation, long aging, and high proof combine to create a powerful and complex rye whiskey.
Additional topics include the introduction of a new 3-liter Jack Daniel's bottle, the continued evolution of Jack Daniel's limited and special releases, and the distillery's high-profile partnership with McLaren Formula One, two-time reigning World Constructors' Champions. Throughout the episode, Chris shares insight into how Jack Daniel's balances heritage, innovation, and global reach while staying rooted in Lynchburg.

353: Heaven Hill Grain to Glass: Exploring Chinquapin Oak Whiskey
dimanche 19 octobre 2025 • Durée 30:01
In this episode of Bourbon Lens, Jake and Scott dive deep into Heaven Hill's newest innovation — the Grain to Glass® Specialty Barrel Series. The series launches with three unique whiskeys, each aged entirely in Chinquapin Oak barrels, showcasing Heaven Hill's continued commitment to experimentation and craftsmanship.
The trio includes:
- Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey – 105 proof (Mashbill: 52% Corn, 35% Rye, 13% Malt)
- Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon Whiskey – 105 proof (Mashbill: 52% Corn, 35% Wheat, 13% Malt)
- Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey – 107 proof (Mashbill: 63% Rye, 24% Corn, 13% Malt)
Each whiskey was barreled at 107 proof, a nod to the historic entry proof used by Heaven Hill's founders, and bottled non-chill filtered to preserve the full depth and character developed from the Chinquapin Oak.
Jake and Scott discuss how these releases reflect Heaven Hill's legacy of innovation while honoring tradition — exploring the flavor differences between each mashbill, the influence of Chinquapin Oak, and what this series could signal for future Heaven Hill experiments.
Tune in for tasting notes, honest impressions, and a conversation that celebrates one of Kentucky's most respected distilleries continuing to push boundaries in bourbon-making.

About Wild Turkey:
The distillery for Wild Turkey Bourbon is in Kentucky, situated on a deep limestone shelf on the Kentucky River. The shelf acts as a natural filter and provides the distillery with crystal clear water, vital to making such a high-quality product. Wild Turkey features the legendary father and son Master Distilling team of Jimmy and Eddie Russell, who have over 100 years of collective experience working at the Wild Turkey distillery.
The famous Wild Turkey brand name first came about back in 1940 when distillery executive Thomas McCarthey took a few warehouse samples on a Wild Turkey hunting trip with a group of friends. The following year, his friends asked him for "some of that Wild Turkey whiskey" and the brand was born.
Wild Turkey is distilled and put into new oak barrels at a much lower ABV than most bourbons. This results in a much richer flavor, as less is cooked out during the production process. Ageing in the highest quality new American oak barrels with the heaviest char available (the Number 4 "alligator" char), imparts a smooth flavor and deep amber color to the whiskey. The barrels are filled at the distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. For more details on Wild Turkey, visit WildTurkey.com.

About Beverly Spirits:
Beverly Spirits crafts an exceptional sipping experience with award-winning American whiskey. Founded by Andrew Borenzweig, an entrepreneur whose background is in the whiskey industry, Beverly Spirits is his vision to create a new style of American whiskey rooted in an ethos of effortless luxury inspired by the lifestyle of his hometown of Los Angeles.
Our signature blends are designed by Founder Andrew Borenzweig and Master Blender Murphy Quint to perfect the balance between the bold, spicy flavor of rye, and the rich feel of bourbon. Each batch is artisanally crafted at Cedar Ridge Distillery in Swisher, Iowa, using proprietary recipes comprised of straight rye and straight bourbon whiskeys hand selected from Iowa and Indiana.
Andrew partnered with Cedar Ridge Distillery to create these signature blends, admiring the family-owned distillery's legacy, product, and most importantly, people, cultivating a relationship based on a shared passion and commitment to quality. Working closely with Murphy Quint, Cedar Ridge's Head Distiller, they spent years refining their recipe to craft a signature profile that is bold and complex yet inviting and smooth.
They undertook a rigorous recipe development process leading to a celebratory conclusion in Barrel Shed #7 at Cedar Ridge on an Iowa summer day in 2021. After exhaustive tastings, crafting blend after blend by hand, evaluating each at cask strength, then at different proofs, they finalized their original recipe, The Beverly High Rye, and their barrel strength expression, The Beverly Reserve.
For more information on Beverly Spirits, head over to the Beverly Spirits' website and product page. Beverly Spirits can ship to 43 states (excluding MI, UT, MA, SD, AK, HI).
The Beverly Reserve is available at select retailers, bars, restaurants and hotels in California, Tennessee and New York. This also includes retailers such as Erewhon in Los Angeles and Corkdorks in Nashville. Use their product finder to find your bottle.

About Joe Beatrice, Founder:
Joe Beatrice has built his career on new ideas. A former marketing and technology entrepreneur, Joe founded his first company, Blue Dingo Digital, in the 1990s to help companies use the Internet to establish, brand, and grow their products.
But after 20 years, Joe was ready for a change. A longtime homebrewer, Joe saw the true magic of spirits after a transformative experience tasting whiskey straight from the barrel for the very first time. In 2013, he launched Barrel Craft Spirits in Louisville, Kentucky, the epicenter of the American spirits industry.
Instead of building his own distillery, Joe questioned the conventional wisdom and took a different course. He sourced and blended exceptional casks from established producers, bottled whiskeys at cask strength, and sold them as transparently as possible.
That approach was unique in the United States, but not the world. Scotland's long-established independent bottlers were a major inspiration, and Joe was captivated by their ability to elevate barrels of whisky into something greater than the sum of their parts. He sensed that American consumers, too, would embrace the chance to explore whiskey in an entirely new way.
Joe sold early releases case by case, personally pounding the pavement to drum up interest from bartenders and retailers. It turned out his visionary instincts were spot on once again. Barrell Craft Spirits' cask-strength small-batch and single-barrel releases quickly became an influencing force in American whiskey, picking up awards from the world's most prestigious spirits competitions.
Joe remains intimately involved with every step of the production process at Barrell Craft Spirits, using his exceptional palate alongside master blender Tripp Stimson to choose and create great spirits. Creative finishes, a liberated approach to blending, and a deep-seated commitment to releasing each whiskey at cask strength and without chill filtration - just like that fateful barrel tasting years ago-continues to guide every product release.
Tripp Stimson, Director of Distillery Operations & Chief Whiskey Scientist:
Tripp hails from Chattanooga, Tennessee. In 2004, following his graduation from Tennessee Technological University with a degree in biochemistry and molecular biology, he was recruited as a Research and Development Scientist for the Brown Forman Corporation, headquarters to Jack Daniel's, Woodford Reserve and Old Forrester. There he gained his experience in yeasting, fermentation, and the distillery sciences and operations that make a distillery operate successfully and efficiently.
Following his 9 years with Brown Forman, Tripp formed his own consulting company providing the technical expertise needed to design, build and efficiently run a new distillery. He's been a key component in the success of distilleries around the country. Most recently, he helped to design and build the Kentucky Artisan Distillery, where he was later employed as Master Distiller and the Director of Distillery Operations. He oversaw all the Jefferson's Reserve project design and implementation including Jefferson's Groth, and Jefferson's Barrel Aged Manhattan. Additionally, he built the first malting operation in Kentucky in 2016.
Tripp met Joe Beatrice at Kentucky Artisan Distillery and they began their work there together blending and producing interesting and unique whiskeys. He joined Barrell Craft Spirits in January of 2017 as the Master Distiller and Director of Distillery Operations and is responsible for developing our product formulation and leading the distillery building initiative.
