    This was absolutely amazing to watch. And how they have the coins representing the staves you were to pick/use was really interesting. And Trevor saying "first up, P2...don't ask me what that means" and you saying "Dude we just went over that" slayed me. An experience like non-other! Thanks for bringing us along! Cheers and Rock on!

    My son and I toured/tasted at 21 distilleries back in 2019. Makers was probably top three in the categories of the grounds (stunning), the tour (informative, detailed and funny), the tasting and the gift shop. It's a little out of the way from some of the others, but worth the drive.

    Amazing! I am going to look into doing this myself. I’m a novice, so perhaps this is silly to notice; but why did they put the metal ring into the barrel connecting the staves? Wouldn’t that give the whiskey an unpleasant metallic note?

    Something I would love to do. Just one question: Frequently when I read about blends they emphasize letting the various whiskies "marry" in a big vat for weeks or months but when you do this you are blending the various stocks and tasting right away. Seems like the blend profile could be affected by the rapid mixing and tasting. Thoughts?

    • @TheMashandDrum
      @TheMashandDrum  2 года назад +3

      Each blend from each stave ages for 9 weeks. Our blend starts out as regular makers 46 and then the staves are put in and that ages for 9 weeks. So while there may be some variation. Its pretty damn close.

  • @BigDawg520
    @BigDawg520 2 года назад

    Was your choice of stave profile dropped down into a barrel of regular makers mark offering, and do you know how old the bourbon was, and how long will your stave profile be kept in the bourbon for? Trying to educate myself!

    • @TheMashandDrum
      @TheMashandDrum  2 года назад +1

      Yes. Staves got dropped in a barrel that will be filled with aged cask strength makers mark. It will then age for an additional 9 weeks with our stave selection before bottling at cask strength. Most makers products are 6-7 years old.

    Just out of curiosity: what's the purpose of keeping a bottle of every single private select that's ever been selected? Is it a resource for the blenders at MM? Is it so that people who made a selection can come back and try it again? Simply an archive? Some other reason I'm missing?
