tastes like straight from
the barrel.
4. The Headstand - An ex-
ample of how aging Stra-
nahan’s whiskey vertically
vs. horizontally can taste.
Vertical storage allows
more barrels to be stored
in the same square foot-
age.
5. French-Kissed - Strana-
han’s finished in a used
Cognac barrel.
6. Strana-Scotch - An ex-
perimentation in yeast as
the proprietary Strana-
han’s yeast was swapped
out for a yeast used pri-
marily in making Scotch
whisky.
All of the above were paired a whole hog roast and a smorgasbord of Col-
orado snacks. Sipping at barrel proof requires a feast.
You can probably already guess I am going to say that they were all divine.
Head to BourbonBlog.com where I elaborate a bit on each expression.
And if this is getting you thirsty, there will be another Cask Thief next year
so be watching out for updates.
