Jason Callori of the Mash and Drum recently worked with the folks at Barrel King to create a custom blend which serves as the very first release of the Drum Key Spirits Brand. "The Debut" is comprised of 7-, 8-, and 9-year Green River Bourbon, personally chosen by Jason from the distillery’s most legendary and seldom-revealed rickhouse locations. This 123 proof bourbon definitely packs some flavor and we give you are thoughts on it. Also, in this episode, we provide an update on our Best of Blinds for 2025. Sure, we are a little behind, but we've finally got our top 12 whiskeys and we will be doing a championship round very soon.

The Jim Beam Distillery recently made news when they announced they would cease distilling operations for one year at their main campus in Clermont, KY to make long overdue improvements to the distillery. While this headline certainly captivated folks near and far, Beam puts out a lot of product and someone needs to review it. That's where we come in. This week, we review two limited edition releases from Jim Beam: Little Book Infinite Edition II & Booker's The Reserves 2025 edition. These two premium offerings are relatively new from Beam and we liked what we tasted last year. How will the newest releases of these whiskeys compare to last year? You'll have to listen to find out. This holiday hangover edition of The Mash Up features one of Kenny's family members (again). Cheers.

Marianne Eaves has put together a very impressive resume in the bourbon industry in a short amount of time. For this exceptionally special episode, we had a chance to sit down and chat with her about Forbidden Bourbon. Although Forbidden is a relatively new brand, the foundation and roots of it began long ago and are influenced by Marianne's drive, passion, and experiences. Marianne shattered a massive glass ceiling when she became Kentucky's first female Master Distiller since prohibition, but she has not rested on her laurels and continues to push the boundaries of the industry. So join us this week for a fascinating and fun conversation with one of the highest profile guests to ever be on the podcast. Marianne is a bourbon nerd at heart and a true ambassador of the spirit. Her accomplishments speak for themselves, but her future plans are nothing short of amazing. We hope you enjoy this episode and you should definitely check out all the goodness coming from Forbidden Bourbon.
