RBB X NBC Barrel Pick!!
The Rhody Barrel Brotherhood is the first RI group to snag a Bourbon barrel from the Nashville Barrel Company. Bourbon is the life blood of RBB and we LOVE dropping firsts. Over the last several years, we have been the first group to drop a bunch of new brands to the RI market via Town Wine and Gold's Wine and Spirits. This might be one of the most exciting releases to date. This is serious 8 year old bourbon from Kentucky. While we don't know the source, we know its HIGH PROOF Bourbon and its delicious.

I prefer the flavor of the Arette. Give it a try, it is actually $35 a liter also vs $55 for a 750 of the Siete. Love all 3 basic expressions of the El Tesoro. The Anejo is one of my current favorites in Anejos. Another great additive free choice that is readily available is Tequila Ocho.

    All of the tequilas in my booze collection at home are additive free. For years, I was wary of tequila and mostly drank mezcal instead because tequila had a tendency to induce headaches, whereas mezcal didn't. Mezcal doesn't use the same kinds of additives that are found in industrial tequila. When additives are used in mezcal, it is typically infusions of fruit or herbs, or hanging meat or other items in the still. These add something interesting to the spirit and don't typically cause headaches. If tequila had these kinds of additives, I wouldn't object, as long as it was stated on the label, as it is for mezcal. It seems that some of the tequila additives can be downright nasty (artificial sweeteners, for example). Also, they mask the natural flavors of the agave and are often used to make up for deficiencies in the agave or the production methods. It would be nice if alcoholic beverages had the same labeling requirements as all other food and drink products and were required to list ingredients and nutritional information. Additives aren't always bad, but I want to know when they are present. I'm glad that awareness of tequila additives has increased. One of the local stores in my area has recently started indicating on the price label which tequilas are additive free, and two of the local bars stock almost exclusively additive free tequilas, though they still have to keep a few of the additive bombs around since they are popular. Hopefully, a similar movement in the direction of transparency and purity will happen for brandy and rum, but it will be more difficult since those spirits are made in numerous countries, each of which has its own regulations.
