ICYMI we were in CA from May 15th to August 1 and I chose NOT to take a bunch of boxes and shipping supplies with me…. so all out-bound had to wait. I hope you all understand
I know a bunch of you got the orders from Chasing Bourbon for your membership benefits and if you were wondering what happened….that’s what’s up
I’m going to do my best to get through all these outstanding things by end of the week so they are all shipped by Monday

For those who’ve never seen this – as often as I can I secure desirable allocated release as absolutely close to SRP as I can
How’s this work? just like a barrel pick I post a link for your tier with a Password. Being in the member only post secton will be faster than the email if time is of the essence (click here to be taken to the member only posts). The Item in Bourbon Outfitter’s Store will display “CB VIP” and rest assured you’ll receive the RR13 B7 45th anniversary bottle
Why “CB VIP” then and not just RR13? – keeps bot/site crawlers from snaking one
How Many? – 25 bottle allocation
How Much? – $300 before “ChasingBourbon” discount, $285 after
When?

Q&A –
Why not more than 25?
A – I buy access to these…yes I pay so you can have an easy button to items like this. 25 bottles was what’s in the budget, plus don’t know if I could have gotten more
Can I move up Tiers?
A – Yes, I made the membership so that you can easily move up and down as you see fit. At the time of this post the only spot open above Run🏃🏻♂️ is one Ludicrous 🛸 spot

Turkey Blending Update and Re-Cap 🔒
Holy busy couple days. Jack Sabo and Adam Brown came down from STL gotta hang and watch first hand the work that goes into making blends. While they missed the barrel sample and blend evaluation/creation stage, they gotta take hand in dumping barrels, making the blend, and well doing whatever we wanted like we owned the joint ….the actual fun part 😂
Alright here is the breakdown- Each number will be a release for a total of 6 Sourced Turkey Releases. 2 releases as they are in the original barrel and 4 released as a double oaked in some way.
#1 – Release of a 9yr 9mo SiB that slays The Subtle Spirits Sib…and yes, I brought a 🤖 of the Subtle to compare. Congrats Jack Sabo for your parting gift 😂
✅ I blended 4 barrels of 9y9m
✅ I blended 6 barrels of 8y9m
✅ I blended the 9y9mo with the 8y9m to make the “737 turkey blend”
This 737 Blend will make:
#2 – 1 release of the “737 Turkey Blend” as the blend is
#3 – 1 release of the “737 Turkey Blend” double oaked in a char 5 / alligator char kelvin barrel
#4 – 1 release of the “737 Turkey Blend” double oaked in a char 4 Kelvin barrel at “x” months
❓The Double Oaked barrels will be released over time when the double oaking is at its perfect spot, and I’ll be checking it monthly
I didn’t want to leave Barrel King hanging with 8 barrels that I took 1/2 or more from so I took the remaining barrels of 8y9m and blended into a second batch known as the “young blend”
This “young blend” will make:
#5 – 1 release of the “young blend” in a medium toast
#6 – 1 release of the “young blend” in a char 4 Kelvin
I’ll do a re-cap on the next Whiskey Wednesday Live Stream and will also give everyone who tunes in a spot for Q&A
