For what it’s worth, I appreciate the history. Anyone can get on YT and give their tasting notes.

[@DBTdad]

I never skip the history class but appreciate the time stamp.

[@robertharper2158]

I, for one, enjoy the History and Educational segments. It's why I purchase your books.

[@Jnickel74]

I was lucky to get a bottle. It was super intense at first, but after a year of being open, it’s now fantastic

[@ChrisC-n8h]

Fred, I met Truman at the distillery and you are correct he was larger than life. Very nice guy who signed my bottle after my tour. If you have time I’d like to share that story with you. Semper Fi, Chris

[@michaelwhitford3641]

I had a bottle of this when it came out. Got it at the distillery (which is in my town). It was great.

[@donkee9]

My wife just brought me one back from the distillery today. It’s home with me in California. I highly recommend the tour and tasting. I really enjoyed it last summer.

[@OverfinchJoshua]

Loved the review Fred! I just managed to get lucky and find one they put out at the distillery on Memorial Day weekend - can’t wait for a special occasion to crack it open 😁

[@FakingANerve]

I had a pour of this on my birthday last year and it is truly remarkable. I also was blown away at how east it sipped for 144.5°.

[@user-qy7fv8sh4k]

Walked into the distillery today not looking for anything in particular and they had 1 bottle of cask strength batch 2 on the table for sale. I absolutely picked it up.

[@LesBramblett]

Please keep providing the history and educational information.

[@tjvbham5831]

Bowman is one of my favorite distillers. I love the current Port finished offering. Thanks for the history behind the bottle.

[@Spencer_WNC]

I always enjoy the FM history lessons!

[@Usonian7]

If people don't like the history and culture they can watch someone else... It's what you provide..
And I enjoy that.

[@robertatack]

Cherry mountain bar! Used to get those as a kid too

[@robertharper2158]

Long and Strong.......word on the streets of Stillwater is that Fred Minnick a.k.a. Long and Strong!

[@FishOn1]

I got this bottle and am still savoring it. All samples I’ve given have been well received. I think this one is well worth the $100 and I seldom pay that for a bottle.

[@lionelg4648]

Going to review batch 3?

[@Jonathan-oo4cd]

Seconding this, would love to see batch 3 reviewed. Maybe a quick comparison too

[@durzagon88]

Nice. Doubt I will ever find one but hope to get a single barrel is definitely possible.

[@robertbatts]

I’ve never had Batch 2, but I was fortunate to win the Batch 3 lottery this year. It is absolutely amazing.

[@byoregon1]

Did you put the link in to the thing you wrote about Truman Cox?

[@FredMinnick]

Just added
Sorry i got rushed and forgot it

[@jbred6049]

I'm ok with charging whatever people are willing to pay. I'm not willing to pay that much, so I will go without.

[@sajrambob6794]

Maple watching in the distance! Haha. So creepy yet delicious sounding b

[@johng5710]

I would be happy with an all history video with no tasting. Hope I can come across an A. Smith Bowman someday!

[@johnwill7962]

Do you think it would’ve beat out old forester 100 proof on your top 100?

[@lionelg4648]

You said the words...

[@padensmith4354]

Fred! The History you share is invaluable whiners be damned

[@seanmcgovern1570]

Sounds delicious!

[@apollyon7573]

How do you like John J Bowman?

[@bserieshatch1]

Maple with the back door.

[@charleshancock9958]

Can I just complain that you complain too much about the people that complain about history…….

[@FredMinnick]

Only if i can complain that you complained about me complaining. Fair?

[@stuartrollings602]

My only complaint is that your complaint about his complaint led to my complaint….
