So awesome that you’re showing off these smaller distilleries that are putting in the hard work to make great stuff. Just ordered their bottled in bond and the rye with your link. I’ll bring both of them to my local bourbon club meeting and let you know what we think! Great content as always, much love from Texas!

If a miracle happens and these bottles ever make their way to Canada, I would be honoured to support this distillery - the honesty and pride shines bright - I hope I get the chance to buy some.
Got one of the four grain picks. I am on travel in Normandie France, so had to get up at 3am to order it. Love that you are supporting these small distillers. Nice to have the chance to get something other than products from the big distilleries. Keep it up. Look forward to getting more picks.
Mississippian here and just picked up a bottle after seeing this video. Dang good stuff and great to see the care and quality coming out of his distillery and the great state of MS. A proud MS moment.
TJ, If you told this guy, one more time, what to do with his product, I was going to jump through the phone! Other than that, I love your videos! You are cordial and friendly to everyone and that’s what I love about you. Good stuff all around.
I would propose that you take a trip up North to Three Oaks, Michigan to get a barrel pick from Journeyman Distillery. The distillery is set up in an old factory which used to use baleen from the whaling industry to make buggy whips and corsets. They make a 100% wheat whiskey that is phenomenal! They are 100% a small craft distillery, with gin, rum, vodka, in addition to their plethora of whiskeys. Small craft distillery, set up in a factory from the 1800's, making award-winning beverages. What more can you ask for?
I haven’t even watched yet but as a micro brewer of beer for 20+ yrs now. I can vouch that this dude is a rockstar because working with a living product like beer/ whiskey is a very fluid job daily tasks that change from day to day. I run a 1000gallon /60 barrel system and I know how many hours I put in every week. Don’t even want to know how many he puts in.
One needs something to believe in, something for which one can have whole-hearted enthusiasm. One needs to feel that ones life has meaning, that one is needed in this world.
Hey If you are ever up north, Chartermark Distillers in Boston, MA is under the Historic Tobin bridge and down the street from the Bunker Hill memorial! They go from grain to bottle all in Boston!
Great episode, Matt seems like a great guy just trying to live his dream. So I made the impulse buy with your link to get the traditional BIB & the rum finished rye. First time buying a BIB, first time buying a "store pick" & first time getting liquor shipped to me. Should be fun! :)
Amazing Video. I’m happy to see you helping those who need it. And thank you for being honest… Well done to all involved 🤝… I’m in Germany and looking forward to what’s next.
I don't really comment on youtube at all but I did want to shout you out for coming down here to check out Crittenden. I literally pass by every day on my way to work and have a bottle in my liquor cabinet right now.
From someone born in Huntsville, AL and married to a woman from Belmont, MS, Thank you sir for putting closed caption on the Mississippi man and not yourself since you live in Alabama! Made my day!!!😁 War Eagle!
I would recommend Red Brest barrel strength for a Irish whiskey and for a scotch try is The Classic Laddie no smoke or peat, Springbank 10 year kinda salty finish and a little smoke, Monkey Shoulder is a good entry level scotch, Johnny Walker Blue is AMAZING is it worth $250+ a bottle????
Man! Thank you for this video! Great to see how he is distilling his whiskey. I love that he did not and does not source his distillate. Can’t wait to get my hands on some of his bottles!
I have just come across your channel and me being new to bourbons it’s great to see his passion for making a quality product. Definitely a brand I’ll support.
So excited to try these out!! And just as happy as my taste buds will be, I'm happy to support cool small businesses like this. One of my favorite things about these picks is the opportunity to try something that's not distributed anywhere near my part of the US.
Both Cognac and Armangnac are brandies made from fermented grape juice. One of the key differences, other than that they are from different regions, Cognac is aged in French Limousin oak barrels, while in Armangnac they use French black oak. Cognac producers can add caramel as a coloring agent. Armangnac prohibits any additives; the color comes entirely from time in wooden barrels
Brandy is made from distilling wine. Cognac is distilled twice, Armagnac once, plus they generally use different grape varieties as well as the barrels you mentioned.
@@Matty88K True. I don’t think the average person has ever heard of Armagnac even though it’s a far older spirit than Cognac. Cognac has somehow overshadowed Armagnac, at least in the U.S. Everytime I mention it I get the “huh? What is that?” Look.
@@deanaltman6841Cognac production is over 210 million bottles/year. Total Armangnac production is 6 million bottles, less than 3% of Cognac's volume. I think that's the biggest reason. France exports more than 50% of annual Cognac production. That's probably why.
this is one of my favorite videos. so so much fun. This is an amazing distillery and a dream of mine. keep shining the light on these small distilleries. cheers.
TJ, you hated the whiskey from Bayou Terrebonne Distillers, LA 1. They just released a new Bourbon, Good Earth. I think you should check it out, its only 2 hours away from Kiln. The owner is a great guy who is really trying to help the downtown Houma area after it was destroyed during Hurricane Ida.
You have to visit Los Angeles Distillery. One of the first distilleries in Los Angeles to make bourbon. They have over 30 different mashbills and do everything in house. It’s only run by two guys! Also, the owner installed and designed the distillery himself!
already sold out of private select, 2 hours in, keep up the good work! what a fun watch, can’t wait to pick something up from the b team, i’m looking for something unique and exclusive, never mind the usual, you’re recommendations have always been good! boy isn’t it fun to get crazy flavors out of a bottle, i’m excited for the next watch!
This is great! I live above the bourbon trail in Kentucky. I love it. I went to Scotland and now I love scotch. I love experimenting with new small batch distillers. ❤❤❤
Silverback Distillery just outside of Charlottesville VA, mother daughter Distillery duo and phenomenal whiskey, if you end up going Ragged Branch is in Charlottesville itself and if you want to give malt a try VA Distillery CO is also in that area
Kiln also has Lazy Magnolia Brewing which was on the front end of the craft beer renaissance. There’s been plenty of beer and whiskey made in MS. Some legal, some not quite as legal.
If you find yourself in luray, va, stop at river hill distilling. Vertically integrated from farm to still. Amazing corn whiskey, and bourbon. All grain grown on prem
Holy Crap! I go out in the woods for a few days and come back this, get sooooo excited...only to find that all the bottles are already sold out...such a bummer...
If you like whiskey in sherry barrels try Glengoyne, they have their own sherry winery that was made ONLY to supply them with barrels. There is a really popular 21yo but i really like the 15-17yo they had a couple years ago. Really fantastic whiskey, try clean first and then also with a drop of water in it. REALLY nice.
My dad makes some of the best shine in this area been doing it for many many years this is always been my dream and I am going to do it this is my big plan here hopefully start next year with a distillery about this size on my 30 acres
Matt is a friend and a great guy. Has a law degree and masters of law in taxation and is smart enough to know that making whiskey is so much better than being a tax lawyer. Way to go Matt, your bourbon is great!
The next time you’re in Nashville you should make the roughly hour drive north to MB Roland. When there ask for Nick, one of the distillers, to give you a tour. They’re a small craft distillery doing fantastic things. Jackie Zykan has even sourced barrels for her hidden barn brand from them.
GREAT VIDEO SIR!!!! Next time you’re goin through East Texas, check out Tahwahkaro Distillery in Palestine Tx. They’re exactly the type of small distilleries you’re lookin for, and they’re putting out some good juice. Especially their Cask strength. Comes in between 128 and 132 proof
Great video, loved to way ya'll got along and then got an education on whiskey, would love to go on a tour of that distillery. Best of luck to the distiller, and to you and yours.

Fuck, theres none left!
Hmm I gotta go do some searching in the family lineage.
For someone that whiskey doesn't have an effect on, someone's having a REALLY good and loud time. You keep on keepen on brother.
Love how painfully honest you are, it makes me want to try the products more than a pandering review would
its refreshing
I’m a bourbon guy and really appreciate the info you share. I’ve tried a few of the bourbons you’ve featured.
Glad you like them! Thanks for the support man!
The fact you said “I wanna be wrong it’s fun.” Like that’s a great mindset for personal growth.
If a miracle happens and these bottles ever make their way to Canada, I would be honoured to support this distillery - the honesty and pride shines bright - I hope I get the chance to buy some.

Yep, barrel picks are still my favorite videos. That looked like a fun time.
Thanks, it was definitely a blast!
@Brewzle I don't drink but I shared your link. I hope you sale out and this video made me rethink sobriety.

Amazing whips and corsets blend
@@Brewzletry out traverse city distillery as well. Haven’t tried it yet but I see there bottles all over my local stores

We will be tapping our milk stout I brewed this winter sometime that I put into barrels last spring. Gave the girl a six hour boil. Can’t wait.
I’m from Mississippi. Glad to see people in the state doing things like this.
SUCH A GREAT VIDEO!! LOVE THE TOUR AND BEHIND THE SCENES OF HOW HIS HARD WORK IS PAYING OFF!!
Very cool video! Thanks for showcasing this small distiller. Serious respect for his dedication to the process. I know it will pay off. Cheers! 🥃
TJ I know this is Old but what you Do is Awesome for the Small Business and this is what Build America
Live the fun you're having, and sharing with all of us ❤🎉😊
Thank you!!!
One needs something to believe in, something for which one can have whole-hearted enthusiasm. One needs to feel that ones life has meaning, that one is needed in this world.
Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.

Right On!!! I like seeing his eyes get lower and lower.
Amazing Video. I’m happy to see you helping those who need it. And thank you for being honest… Well done to all involved 🤝… I’m in Germany and looking forward to what’s next.
I just tried this tonight and its very good. Smooth and no harsh finish

Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.
Great video as usual TJ. I ordered both picks yesterday, can't wait to try that 4 grain. Keep up the good work.

I agree! Thanks for the support.
There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.
Now I want to start a distillery

Rye is still available! Just the Four Grain is sold out.
Wow, that's a dream pick and Matt is a pioneer IMO.
Neither genius, fame, nor love show the greatness of the soul. Only kindness can do that.
I just watched some of your road trips so it was cool to see some of the guys you met on those trips join you. A bunch of whiskey nerds uniting.
I also appreciate supporting good/great small one off businesses.
This is great! I live above the bourbon trail in Kentucky. I love it. I went to Scotland and now I love scotch. I love experimenting with new small batch distillers. ❤❤❤
Great video, so cool to highlight the smaller distillery. Matt Crittenden seems to be a cool dude. All the best to him.
Thanks for watching!
I’m not a whiskey guy but I like the video. They seem to really enjoy themselves.
Silverback Distillery just outside of Charlottesville VA, mother daughter Distillery duo and phenomenal whiskey, if you end up going Ragged Branch is in Charlottesville itself and if you want to give malt a try VA Distillery CO is also in that area
Awesome stuff you’re doing, TJ. Appreciate you.🍻
I appreciate that!
Look forward to spring as a time when you can start to see what nature has to offer once again.
Crittenden's Cut above is a great pour and local to my area, I'm proud to say that this Bourbon is very good.
A bloke spends over 10 years of his life to create this - Not counting building the sheds - You have to give him the respect it deserves.. 😎
That barrel room is a never ending Street Fighter bonus level.
Kiln also has Lazy Magnolia Brewing which was on the front end of the craft beer renaissance. There’s been plenty of beer and whiskey made in MS. Some legal, some not quite as legal.

Best video yet. I have tears from the banter. Keep it up.
Glad you enjoyed it!
10,000 drops distillery in Faribault MN, sourcing organic local grains, distilled and bottled all in house. High recommendation.
If i ever see any of this mans product im instantly picking it up great humble man
Justin Mozingo is the man! I love your distillery visit videos TJ!
Such a great video capturing the beautiful moments of your guys first meetup! Here’s to long friendship 🍻
I've been sipping this stuff since the pick and have to say it is very good. I wish it was more widely available because I would buy it again.

Fantastic set up. Great guys with fun vibes.
I am VERY interested in trying those rum finished barrels. I love rum and bourbon. Combining them is absolute genius.
Only 4 left!
Great video, loved to way ya'll got along and then got an education on whiskey, would love to go on a tour of that distillery. Best of luck to the distiller, and to you and yours.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of intelligent effort.
Holy shit, this is the best video of yours that I’ve seen. You got sideways and I loved every second of it!
Awesome channel, we love doing distillery tours. We haven't done one in our videos yet, but I enjoy how you do yours.
Just opened up the bottle in bond -found a bottle In Birmingham while on a work trip. Great product hoping to have it on the shelf in Georgia soon!
As a Mississippian I had no clue. Thanks for the content!
What a great distiller, love the content from you guys especially sat here on a cold wet Saturday morning in the UK. Whisky or Whiskey🤟
Great to know he distributes to AL. I'll have to be on the look out for his rum barrel finished rye!
I wish this video was longer! Brewzle looked like a kid in a candy store
Weller 12, Eagle Rare, Russell’s 10, Bullet 10, Widow Jane 10
I haven't drank alcohol in years but this is slowly becoming an obsession of mine, dude is living the dream lmao
You need to do a middlewest pick. Got one from a different group a year or two ago and it’s one of the best bottles I’ve ever had
Met this guy today at bourbon fest. Dude is super cool and their stuff is good!
man tastes over 3000 barrels of whiskey....records RUclips video.
The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.
Hell yeah, I love that he started with a BiB. I've always wished more people would risk it and not source. I need to get my hands on a bottle or two!
Nothing like sharing whiskey with some good ol’ country boys.
You have me intrigued with these wines. I’m trying to acquire these six wines, out here in the Styx of the USA, it appears a challenge. Love it.
I love this video! You need to do more of these. 🙏
I think Brewzle got a little toasted on this barrel selection.
Just found channel. Grew up in Bogalusa, Franklinton, LA. Absolutely loved this video.
Stopped by and got a bottle today. Can’t wait to try.
Holy shit, I can’t believe that my home state has a Whiskey Distillery worth a damn.
Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness.
Love videos like this. Look forward to trying some of these. Thanks for the great content!
