Stop scrolling, You've found your distraction for a few minutes...

🥃 Every bottle has a secret. The alcohol industry is built on myths, marketing, and hidden history. We don't just drink the stuff here—we investigate it. (but we still drink it, too). From the engineering inside a Guinness can to the scandals behind famous tequilas, whiskies, bourbon, wine, beer, you name it! We uncover the fascinating stories the brands don't put on the label.

🤵 My name is Chris, and my goal is to turn you into a smarter consumer. Whether you want to spot a marketing lie, understand the chemistry of your drink, or just have a great story to tell your friends next time you order a round, you're in the right place.

Wassup HighProofers --> THIS GUY WAS A MENACE. The more research I do on him, the more amazing he turns out to me. If you don't know who is he, his name is on a very popular (and expensive) whiskey... any idea?

Hey HighProofers, Apologies for taking so long with this new video, I''ll explain more below...

Check out the new video, if you ever find yourself in 1904, don't drink the whiskey... https://youtu.be/aF6FSUFo8qU

Anyways, I ran into some copyright issues with the Pappy video, but was able to clear it up! So it's back live. It derailed what I was trying to do. I plan on having a couple (maybe even 3 videos) up for May, but we shall see

Let me know what you think of the new video! I tried a few things that I think you will like!

Hey HighProofers, I'm still alive.... 😅 Currently working on a new video and after the success of the Pappy Van Winkle video and I think that is enough to devote more time to the channel.

A new High Proof Report documentary will be dropping next week and it's genuinely one of my favorite stories ever (although there is a chance I may get demonitized based on the subject matter...) 👀

Anyways, hope you're having a good start to your year so far. Thanks again for your patience and support.

I'll see you soon with a new video (and lots of other exciting projects to come in the next few months!)

Chat soon! 🥃

Review: Star Hill Farm Wheat Whiskey

I’m a sucker for wheated whiskey, but this is crazy!

This whiskey blew my mind and ti will blow your’s if you can find it. But I can help with that, too! But first, the details…

-----

Info

Distilled by: Maker’s Mark

Mashbill: 51% Soft Red Winter Wheat | 27% Malted Wheat | 22% Malted Barley

Age: 7 to 8 years

Proof: 114.7

Findability: 2 out of 10
MSRP: $100

-----

Nosing/Tasting Notes

Nose: The 78% of wheat in the mash bill makes this soft and inviting. But better than your quintessential Makers Mark. Unexpectedly, I get superb woody cola notes like I’m drinking a Stagg. And at 7 or so years, I get sweet, sweet, oak! It’s phenomenal

Palate: Spank me… this is an amazing whiskey. It’s sweet, soft, marshmallow-y, full-bodied, rich… WOW. Not super oily on the backend like I’d like, but not drying either. I get tobacco and leather also which I am loving at the moment.

Finish: It’s very, very good. I get the Kentucky hug and warming. It’s a medium-to-long finish and I’m upset when it’s done.

-----

I have a few friends that say they have never tasted a Makers Mark that they supremely liked… well, they haven’t tried Star Hill Farm.

I read that Makers will make this release a more normal thing, but it hasn’t started yet. I got this from a buddy over at @signaturewineandspirts.

This bottle is hard to find, but if you want rare bottles, just create relationships and be a freakin’ human with your local store. It’s that easy.

I wasn’t expecting much from this, especially being a first release, but I was blown away and will nurse this bottle for a while until I can get a backup.

-----

T8KE Rating: 8.7 | Excellent | Really quite exceptional.

Will I Buy Again?: DEFINITELY, if I can find it
