  Silverthorn Reserve 13-Year-Old Single Barrel Rye: Thirteen Years in the Making An exceptionally limited collection of Indiana straight rye whiskey proves that patience, individuality, and a carefully chosen barrel can make quite an impression. Some whiskeys are designed for the everyday pour. Others deserve a little more attention. Silverthorn Reserve 13-Year-Old Single Barrel Straight Rye Whiskey falls decidedly into the latter category. Thirteen years in the barrel is an impressive commitment, particularly for rye whiskey. But age alone isn't what makes this release interesting. Silverthorn Reserve has assembled a collection of just ten individually selected barrels, each chosen for its ability to stand on its own merits. No blending to create a uniform house profile. No effort to make one barrel taste exactly like the next. Instead, the collection celebrates the subtle differences that make single-barrel whiskey such an engaging experience. And with only ten barrels in the en...

National Rum Day: A Journey Through the History, Styles & Flavors of Rum August 16 is National Rum Day.   And while we certainly don't need much of an excuse to pour a glass, rum might be one of the most interesting spirits to actually have an excuse for. Rum can be light and crisp, dark and brooding, funky and earthy, sweet and spiced, grassy and vegetal, or rich and contemplative after years in a barrel.   It can be the backbone of a Daiquiri, the soul of a Mai Tai, the tropical star of a Piña Colada, or something you pour into a Glencairn and contemplate for a while.   It can even spend some time in a rum barrel and make a whiskey more interesting. That's exactly what we found when we gathered a collection of bottles specifically for National Rum Day. Our tasting lineup included traditional rums, spiced rums, aged rums, a non-alcoholic rum alternative—and even a Kentucky rye whiskey that spent time in Caribbean rum barrels. So before we get to the bo...
