In this episode of A Steady Pour, the crew dives deep into a tasting journey featuring two standout bottles from Starlight Distillery’s Family Reserve—a rye and a bourbon that spark plenty of lively conversation. They kick things off with the rye, praising its perfect balance of spice and sweetness, layered with hints of butter and a surprising bourbon-like smoothness. It’s an approachable pour that even non-rye enthusiasts might enjoy, though the proof packs a punch for the uninitiated.
Next, they explore the bourbon, marveling at its creamy, cocoa-laden nose, subtle fruit notes, and buttery finish. Despite its 126-proof label, the bourbon drinks smoother than expected, offering a rich, complex flavor profile that keeps the conversation flowing. The hosts debate everything from proof perception to finish intensity, with ratings reflecting their varied preferences and love for both pours.
Between laughs, spirited debates, and a tease of an exciting guest for the next episode, this installment has something for every whiskey fan. Whether you're curious about approachable ryes or bold bourbons, you’ll want to pour a glass and tune in for the full experience!
