It's in the name. Or is it?
Yes, you read that right, Weed Spirits. Do their products contain marijuhana? No, they do not. Does the name allude to it anyway? Yes, it does. While there’s no weed in Weed’s products, the company wants to “tap into the evolution of the cannabis space without using cannabis”. So, if you want to make your liberal parents happy or piss off your conservative family, this is the Bourbon to get them. They’ll both probably like it, though.
Bottled by the company in Waxahachie, Texas, this is an “at least” 2YO Straight Bourbon. There’s no information about the mash bill, but we can tell you this sipper tastes a lot older than just 2 years. With rye spice, brown butter, toasted brioche, and some wood, sweet butterscotch, and peanut butter, there’s a lot of flavor in this intriguing Bourbon. It’ll make for a very, very nice mixer, but you can sip it neat or pour it over rocks, too. Maybe at 20 past 4?

Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
Speaking of breeding winner horses, two of Pinhook’s co-founders have horseracing in their DNA. Jamie Hill and Mike McMahon continue the tradition of their families as third-generation horsemen, owning a bloodstock agency and a thoroughbred racing company. Applying that knowledge to Whiskey just made sense.
J.B.'s father, Joseph W. Dant, invented a still made from a poplar log at 16, as he couldn't afford a copper still. Although crude, it worked exceptionally well!
Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.
Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.
Pinhook’s high-proof Bourbon won Gold at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, while the Straight Rye Whiskey won Double Gold the following year. In 2021, their Bourbon War Vertical Series 5 Year and the 2021 Flagship Bourbon won a Gold Medal each, with a Double Gold going to their Tiz Rye Time Vertical Series 5 Year. Pinhook is evidently doing something right!
