At Wyoming Whiskey they are proud of their state and their Spirits. The distillery was founded in 2009 by Kate and Brad Mead and their friend David DeFazio. But they had the help of an experienced guiding hand — Steve Nally, former master distiller at Makers Mark. The first commercial Whiskey was released as a four year old in 2012, but they state that all current Whiskies are a minimum of five years old. Importantly, they state loud and clear that none of their Spirits are sourced. Every drop is distilled and aged on site at their facility in the Big Horn Basin of Wyoming, all the grains are farmed within one hundred miles, and the water comes forma local well sunk into an ancient limestone aquifer. And you’ve just got to respect that.
Given their reputation, it probably won’t surprise you that when the folks at Wyoming Whiskey say "single barrel," they mean it. And they tell you right up from that the average yield of a single barrel varies by the cold of the winter and the heat of the summer and how much the angels take. But the average single barrel yields 220 bottles. That’s it. The rest of the details are the same as their flagship Bourbon — same mash bill, same 44% ABV. But as you might also expect, single barrels vary a lot from casks to cask (that’s why Whiskey fans love them). Our sample had a pleasant, but surprising raisin and rancio quality usually found in older, barrel-finished Whiskies.
Smartass Corner:
Importantly, their flagship Bourbon is bottled at precisely 88 proof, which is 44% ABV. This is specifically to honor their home state of Wyoming which was admitted as the 44th state to the United States. And we think that’s pretty cool too.
The Flavor Spiral™ shows the most common flavors that you'll taste in Wyoming Whiskey Single Barrel and gives you a chance to have a taste of it before actually tasting it.
We invented Flavor Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.
Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.
